@uçuyorum & @Pokemonte13 Guys, just to give you a perspective to your discussion; 495+ SOM missile order was placed and production started in 2013 (albeit LRIP to start with) and the contract was completed in 2019. Roketsan had a 300m2 area for this production line. But since then there have...

Only other viable solution is a Gökdoğan, Bozdoğan, or similar a2a missiles as US an other allies were using. Alternatively even more expensive Patriot missiles. Eren will be a great deal cheaper than any of those. Also you need to take in to account the fact that if you don't intercept those...

https://www.turkiyetoday.com/nation/bayraktar-akinci-achieves-first-air-to-air-kill-with-eren-loitering-munition-3214955?s=1 Last month Baykar and Roketsan carried out a test firing of a missile named Eren. This is a very important turning point in slower UCAVs being used in air to air and air...

MK1 radar is produced by Hensoldt. It is tecnologically behind the LeonardoUK produced MK2 version. Especially on EW. Typhoons that have MK0 can be retrofitted with MK2 fairly quickly. It would be a different story for the MK1. Upgrading from ECRS Mk0 to ECRS Mk2 is generally considered more...

If you check Roketsan’s site, Sea-Atmaca has a range of 250km and the Kara-Atmaca has a range of 280km. There are no “more than“ or “+” signs that go with it. https://www.roketsan.com.tr/en/products/kara-atmaca-surface-surface-cruise-missile...

If Baykar wants to stay as master of unmanned air vehicles they should concentrate on that subject and leave the engine technology to those who are masters of it. Otherwise they will be Jack of all trades but master of none. They still haven’t mastered KE yet. There is so much they need to...

What makes you say that? Are you comparing it to the picture that is on TEI’s website? Only the people who design these nozzles would know if it is stealthy or not. Yes , there are few specific points that we all know about, regarding what contributes to a good stealthy nozzle. There is IR...

It is not just with what, it is how concentrated and in abundance the defence systems would be too. Even Korkut like guns and CIWS would be effective on cruise missiles. Also point defence missiles potentially can add to the layered defences. A city like tel Aviv has a metropolitan area of over...

Good point @Iskander ! But you have also to remember that those airfields on the ground have 10 times more layered and complex air defences than any city. To overcome those defences is not a simple task. To Shayrat, the US fired 59 Tomahawk missiles. According to Russian sources 23 hit their...

Tüm inanan forumdaşların bayramı kutlu olsun, eid mübarek to all relevant members.

https://www.defenceturk.net/iran-f-35-vurdu Turkish media is giving the same news as well. A F35 jet has been shot by Iranian fire. it is not clear what hit the plane and inspite of “being shot” how the plane managed to return and safely land.

Well spotted. But it still needs to be tested as a RATO capable drone to be accepted as one.

You know what; I actually counted his fingers and thumbs in both hands😂😂 He had 8 fingers and 2 thumbs.

I have just seen him on BBC telling the world Ali Larijani is killed

No I am not. Ballistic missile exo atmospheric interception, like US SM3 missiles have performed in the last few days, need a much longer detection range than our CAFRAD can provide. AN/TPY-2 radar in Kurecik has a detection range of 3000 km. CAFRAD has a detection range of 600km. (Its...
