Brochure TAI shared couple days ago says Air-to-Ground and Air-to-Air configurations. It will also serve as a loyal wingman to Kaan in MUM-T concept so it should have a radar. And I doubt it will be anyting else than Murad

"Demiroğlu also gave an important detail regarding the tests of avionics being developed for KAAN. He stated that a flying laboratory based on the Bombardier Global 6000 business jet has been supporting the tests for KAAN’s AESA radar." - From TurDef...

Apprently Murad-100 AESA radar has been implemented to 6 platforms and they are "very satisifed" with its performance so far. I wonder what could these 6 platofroms be: 1 - F16 Özgür 2 2 - Akıncı 3 - Testbed 4 - Kızılelma(?) 5 - Anka-3(?) 6 - Hürjet(?)

Arda Mevlutoğlu claimed that the big delivery might be from first Siper procurment deal signed in 2018 totalling 566 million at the time since this is the first "serial production" delivery of Siper. If that is the case there is still a lot of standing deals waiting to be delivered

I don't think they will ever publish stealth tests because there isn't much to show and it is one of the more guarded topics. But Ahmet Akyol has said that they are collabarating with Baykar on things like sensors but also on the stealth. I would guess that includes testing against best radars...

I think it is supossed to be "Agressive climb" and "Maneuver", the agressive adjective is only for the climb part. But it is still little suspect

New İlter J-350 drone detection and interception system deliveries by Boğaziçi Savunma. From my layman prespective looks like a very effective system for soft kill defense in places that would be targeted with modified commercial drones or cheap long range drones with its Radar, radio frequency...

I guess this answers my question Land forces has started acquiring Land Based TB-3's.

TB3 will start operating on TCG Anadolu in September. I wonder how is the progress with the land based TB-3?

Baykar doesn't seem to have any problems getting Ukranian engines(They are apparently assembling the 6th prototype) so if everything else is ready I don't think engine would be a huge problem for Anka-3. But do I think it is ready for serial production? hell no

Yeah that is what I thought but Anıl Şahin claimed otherwise even going into detail about how Akrep-1000G detects the target then transfers the information to Alp-100g for locking. I guess it is my fault expecting correct info from those guys after so many fuck ups lol

The real question is how long will it take to produce that many systems? It seems like Siper production rate will be 2 maybe 3 per year at best even with the newly opened facilities which is not bad at all but considering how critical our situation is. A lot more investment in the production is...

SavunmaSanayiTV claimed that Alp-100g was the target lock radar for the Siper system but then why the different Camo? And as far as I can understand it uses the same architecture as Siper's own radar so what is the difference? It doesn't make much sense to me

They finally found the right İmam Hatip graduate to fuck up all of Assan's progress I guess.

Seeing this reminded me that Şahin exists. I wish we see more deliveries of it considering the increasing drone attacks to our bases in Iraq. It would be a lot more cost effective than trying to place a Korkut in every base and a lot more reliable than relying on EW
