Didn't one of the Anka prototypes fly with a ballistic recovery parachute because previous prototype was lost?

Is there a reason why we can't launch with a catapult and recover over sea? Salvage the good parts of the UAV if broken and renew with stock airframes kept on ship?

They should make a design contest to pick brains of designers and adopt a good design to build.
SSB can own the design and get it built through a builder/maker like TAI or Baykar or a third one like STM.

Bronco could take off without a catapult from LHA and could land without arresting gear onto LHA, interesting.

While doing srfing, I came across the hight speed boat of singapore. its design and silhouette look perfect. If the passenger cabin had been removed it would have been an excellent alternative for the ULAQ :rolleyes:

OV-10 bronco resembles the TAI Aksungur drone

Maybe SSB / TAI should consider a shorter wingspan naval version of Aksungur if they can achieve short takeoff and landing

The engine of the OV-10 Bronco is also the predecessor to the LHTEC engine - Aksungur with shorter wings and turboprop (smaller version of TS1400 or Ukrainian alternative engine) would be excellent!

Well honeywell and garrett were separate companies till the late 90s....so it is kind of step-father predecessor kind of thing....rather than direct. That's large reason why LHTEC went for power turbine too rather than fixed like the garrett oldie.

I would just go for GE T700 that Turkey already license produces.

Added benefit is its good hp/weight as its also power turbine design (like lhtec and most you will find today) rather than fixed shaft (with heavy gearbox).

Even In sea state 4-5, This boat will navigate as a semi-submarine bro. Ideal place of this boat will be calm waters.

On 1 March 2021, an additional ATR72-600, serial TCB-703 (construction number 1498), was delivered to the Türk Deniz Hava Komutanlığı (Turkish Navy Aviation Command). In itself, this is not surprising since Leonardo S.p.A. is in the process of delivering the last four of six ordered Maritime Patrol Aircraft versions to the Turkish Navy. However, this latest delivery was a Transport & Maritime Utility Aircraft, of which the Turkish Navy already operates two since 2013.

The order of ATR72s has been changed multiple times. As far back as 2005, the Savunma Sanayi Başkanlığı (SSB, Ministry of Defense Industries) ordered ten aircraft which would be based on the commercial ATR75-500. In 2013 the order was changed to eight ATR72-600: two ATR72-600TMUA (Transport & Maritime Utility Aircraft) and six ATR72-600MPA (Maritime Patrol Aircraft, locally designated P-72).

In December 2020, the SSB again announced a change of the order, to three Transport & Maritime Utility Aircraft (TMUA) and six Maritime Patrol Aircraft (MPA). It is unclear if the latest delivery is a compensation for the tremendous delays that the programs is facing or if the Turkish government actually paid for the aircraft.

So far, only two P-72s have been delivered. TCB-751 was delivered on 10 February 2020 and officially handed over on 8 October 2020. The second example, TCB-752, was delivered on 27 February 2021 and is in the process of being accepted.

The fleet of ATR72s are operated by 301 Filo from Cengiz Topel Naval Air Base, near Izmit.

Seems like it has an advanced hull.

Special Operations Stealth Semi-Submarines demystified SEALION and Alligator stealth boats
" A semi-submersible boat capable of exhibiting a high degree of stability and maneuverability in both calm and heavy seas..."

The patent test and diagrams are extra interesting : https://patents.google.com/patent/US5215025A/en
The Singaporean one doesn't seem to be one of these. It is rather a planning hull with a similar plating. The patented one has ballasts and variable draught.
i didn't revealed anything. As i said, it's just a rumor. But seems you got the info that i haven't. Cool...
The contract was signed in 2018. There is nothing to be rumored actually, it is official.
Good news, they are equipping the remaining ships. I wonder if they improved the rocket itself.
Sistem ROKETSAN tarafından geliştirilen DSH Roketlerini atmak üzere tasarlanmış olup 2012 yılı itibariyle Deniz Kuvvetleri Komutanlığı envanterine giren 4 adet Yeni Tip Karakol Botuna (YTKB) entegre edilmiştir.

2018 yılı son çeyreğinde Savunma Sanayii Başkanlığı (SSB) ve ROKETSAN arasında imzalanan Milli DSH Roketi ve Atıcı Sistem Tedariki sözleşmesi kapsamında Aselsan-ROKETSAN ile sözleşme imzalamıştır. Sözleşme kapsamında Aselsan tarafondan 12 adet DSH Roketi Atıcı Sistemi ve yedekleri üretilecek, ilgili sistemler Deniz Kuvvetleri Komutanlığı envanterinde yer alan YTKB’lere entegre edilecek ve gerekli eğitimler verilecek.

I see armament as:

1 x Oto-Melara 40mm twin compact gun
2 x Aselsan 12,7mm remote controlled, stabilized machine gun systems with IR imaging
1 x Rocketsan ASW rocket launcher
2 x depth charge racks


Yes , nearly 16 months ago (December 2019) it was revealed that the rockets’ range was increased to 4000m and the depth range was increased to 500m. But it is not new!
So what is the new information being shared? I don’t get it!
Unless it is the news that these renewed capabilities are being fitted to all ships in the Tuzla range!
I, particularly find it interesting, the last part in the first link where it mentions the inclusion of special containers that can be fitted on to surface ships to give them portable rocket firing capability of trg122 and trg230 class guided artillery rockets .
So in theory, if push comes to shove, the back part of these ships could accommodate a container of trlg230 rockets that can hit moving sea targets up to 70km away.
