Even 20mm doesn't have airburst rounds. Just HE! In 1000 meters , slow flying drones are easy target for 20mm cal.
As I understood, this was said for 35mm.
))) finally

I don't think anyone on the planet makes 12.7 mm air burst rounds. HE-I is the closest thing, but only shrapnel in that would be from the bullets themselves.

I wonder what the price difference would be between this and proper Korkut or Gürz.
They confirmed my assumption that GÜRZ 140 is the 8x8 AFV configuration too, UGV one is totally seperate
IDEF25: ASELSAN Displays KORKUT 140/35 with AESA Radars | TURDEF
ASELSAN unveiled the KORKUT 140/35 SPAAG with KALKAN 050-G AESA radars and KANGAL FPV jammers at its outdoor exhibition area during the IDEF25 exhibition.
Also, KORKUT 140/35 with AESA radars is using KALKAN 050-G. Not only that but it is also fitted with KANGAL FPV
Iranian claimed they already developed “Warp” propulsion and working currently on a “Deadstar”.
Pakistani hit on Rafale was also a strong proof of this fact
As for propulsion they proved they have some good technology. The hypersonic Rockets worked. But the Air defense was in very bad condition. They have the hardware to do big things but the detection and lock in was so bad. On paper they have S400 like local air defence but it failed missrebly in a real test. But again why Turkeye will be more successful?! Is it detection system much better? Is it locking systems better? Why Turkeye is not accelerating AIWACS programs and mass producing it as it have mountainous map and Airplanes can use that to make it so hard for ground radar to detect them.
Türkiye produces weapon systems at NATO standart at least,that is why Türkiye is succesful.
Still all the Turkish systems are lacking number and experience to develope. Remember the Patriots early bad performance with ballistic missiles in Iraq War compared to the modern much successful performance. Sadly other than Baykar no other company is working on fast acceleration of production. Turkeye is surrounded by very dangerous neighbors that could start a war anytime in case of change in their leadership, and for the current crazy Isreali leadership they could start a war on Syria in any minute. In short Turkeye should be producing like it is in war, and although Turkeye is working little fast but still not war like emergency. Iran mistakes and success in this short war should be studied seriously and Ukraine lessons also should be studied seriously. The work on big number of Air defence as intense as the small Isreal should be accelerated meanwhile the work on Russia like big long range kamikaze drone(1,000km+) production (about 200 daily) should be considered and mass production of 1,000km+ Ballistic missiles that the president already ordered to accelerate should be considered (300+ monthly). The defense and the ability to respond and cause pain are deeply related. Government should encourage more innovative companies like Baykar to enter in these three fields: Rockets, Ballistic missles, long range Kamikaze drones, and Air defence. As we had seen in Iran Case praised Air defence Systems didn't find any real success especially compared to the hype and complexity while simple systems from new factories and young engineers had some success.
