Great article! Update on the previous interview Mr Okumus of Tubitak-Sage !
Most interesting part was the Som-J being ready soon, and KGK (Turkish JSOW) being more widely used especially with laser seeker head.
SOM-J as we know has IIR seeker with data link and accepts continuous course corrections in flight making it capable to hit moving sea objects. KGK with laser seeker head will also be capable of doing this. From an F16, 110 km away a MK84 (2000lb bomb with ~430kg of explosives) can hit a ship, at a fraction of the cost of jet propelled anti ship missiles. That much explosive, will sink any sea vessel, short of an Aircraft Carrier.
Both these bombs have stealthy geometry and will be able to penetrate enemy positions virtually undetected.

As far as I know, there’s no Mk84 variant yet.

You are correct! There is a mk84 version with HGK however. As newer and more versions of KGK is coming it should only be a matter of time that a MK84 version of KGK is introduced as well.
I have a feeling that the reason they did not introduce the MK84 version of the KGK was because there is no JSOW over 1000lb weight. Since there was a 2000lb JDAM we had the MK84 HGK. As we introduce our own ammunition to our planes as US replicants we could not let the F16 think that it was releasing and guiding a 2000lb JSOW. Once we have ”Ozgur” access to the F16 computer, then we can reconfigure it as we please and it should be possible.

Full range of guidance kits for Turkish guided bombs

SAL Aselsan LGK series (Mk82-Mk84)
INS/GPS Tubitak SAGE HGK series (Mk82-Mk83-Mk84)
INS/GPS+SAL Tubitak SAGE LHGK series (Mk84, Mk83 version will probably follow )
INS/GPS+SAL Roketsan TEBER series (Mk81, Mk82)
INS/GPS+Wing kit Tubitak SAGE KGK series (Mk82-Mk83, development for Mk84 is going on)
INS/GPS+SAL+Wing kit Tubitak SAGE LKGK series (Development work is going on I expect eventually it will be available for the whole range of Mk82/83/84)
INS/GPS+IIR+Wing kit+Turbojet engine or solid rocket booster Tubitak SAGE KGK-LR(development is going on)
INS/GPS+IIR/TV Roketsan Laçin series (Mk82)
INS/GPS small diameter bomb Aselsan Minyatür Bomba (Mk-81 with bunker-buster capability, I expect laser guidance to be added after the development of the base version)

Warhead choices for MK series bombs

SERT82 ( Bunker buster warhead for Mk82)
SARB83 ( Bunker buster warhead for Mk83, tandem warhead)
NEB ( Bunker buster warhead for Mk84, tandem warhead)
Tendürek MK82-T ( Thermobaric warhead for Mk82, development for Mk83, Mk84, SOM, SARB83, and NEB is going on)

UAV bombs are also offered with thermobaric warheads as an option.

 

[Spook]

Reminder! 20 minutes. They gonna ask good questions..

There is going to be a Q&A section.

 

[Cabatli_TR]

Please ask questions about projects, note everything Mr Okumus is goiong to state and update the topics with his words.

 

[Oublious]

Ramjet is being tested..... more then 100 test al ready done...

 

[Spook]

Ramjet infrastructure completed, wind tunnel will be completed in few years. We are doing R&D for wind tunnel unlike other countries who buy ready testing infrastructure.

 

[Siper>MMU]

G-40 can be QUADPACKED.

Also it has cold launch and thrust diverting system which will significantly increase range by already turning missile towards its target and saves 0.5-1 seconds of engine burn.

 

[Spook]

Also they can develop it by the time TCG Istanbul enters service if it becomes an official project

 

[Spook]

We are working on a cost-effective A2A missile against drones. Small enough for Hurjet to carry like 10 of them.

 

[Cabatli_TR]

Tubitak SAGE is developing cost-effective mini air to air missile. Turkish drones will engage other drones with these mini missiles.

Gökdoğan will exceed limits of 65km easily. 65km is required in this projects. Later, The missile will exceed 100+km.

 

[Cabatli_TR]

Tozkoparan is an air defence missile program that is being developed as a part of Turkish layered air defence concept.

 

[Cabatli_TR]

Ramjet and Scramjet programs all are a part of Turkish missile programs. They are not tech demonstrations

 

[Cabatli_TR]

Akdoğan is the name of mini air to air missile program

 

[Spook]

Not much at IDEF-21, wait for IDEF-23......

 

[Cabatli_TR]

Not much at IDEF-21, wait for IDEF-23......

We will see new guidance kits in IDEF2021 but the World will be shocked in IDEF23.

G40 soft launch, quad pack missile can catch the schedule of first I class frigate If it is requested
