Barbaros CMDS will consist of Atmaca RF, Atmaca IIR and Çakır missiles. Kara(land) Atmaca is the bigger variant of Atmaca IIR with a longer range (500km). It will be delivered to land forces. Kara Atmaca weighs 890kg while the Atmaca antiship missile weighs 750kg. Kara Atmaca carries a 250kg...

High altitude surveillance UAV.

Qataris fed up with Ethem and removed him from the Turkish defense industry. Qataris directly petitioned Erdoğan to remove Ethem from the equation. Ethem was invincible but he made a big mistake and bamboozled Qataris. Erdoğan called Tosyalı and told him to takeover BMC and BMCPower. TAI bought...

We should invest heavily in Ada class ships. They are beautiful and capable vessels. We should add 8x MIDLAS VLS, Hisar/Siper guidance datalink, replace RAM with Levent or Gökdeniz CIWS, replace generators with bigger ones, and replace SMART-S with Cenk-S also add a new EW system. STIR FCR...

First AKP will try to push for a new constitution depending on the outcome of local elections. If AKP wins with a big margin expect a new constitution to secure more terms for Erdoğan. If this fails Selçuk Bayraktar will replace Erdoğan as the president post 2027. Erdoğan will stay as the...

4. 4 is a big fleet. Those ships are like aircraft carriers for offshore drilling. 2 ships will operate in Blacksea. 1 ship will probably do exploration in Somalia. If East Med is put on hold, we can spare one more ship for another operation.

We have a big drillship fleet. We will only send 1 ship for exploration.

Some might be converted but I don't expect the first 3 prototypes to be converted.

I highly doubt it will be shorter than 20 meters.

It can easily travel past 300km but I think this extra range will be used as loitering capability. And note that Çakır doesn't need to travel at Mach 0.8 constantly it will probably be able to throttle down to Mach 0.3-0.4 while loitering to conserve fuel. Çakır will probably have...

Tolga Özbek says the next prototype of Kaan will be slightly shorter and smaller and the nose of the next prototype will see some changes. The current prototype will fly again soon.

1.17 kg/h/daN is sea level SFC unless stated otherwise. It is also mentioned in the infographic as SLS (Sea Level Static, max rpm) so if you put 51kg of fuel and run the engine for 15 minutes Çakır will travel 225km at worst.

I wonder why everybody visits Armerkom DPO and not ASFAT. I thought ASFAT designed/will design the TF-2000.

When you put 1152 30-watt GaN modules together you will get a better range than your competition. This is physics. Aselsan has vast experience and knowledge of producing radars. I'm not overestimating you guys are underestimating. Canadians did the same things with optics and now Aselsan...

Yes as you go higher fuel consumption decreases so do the air drag and thrust of the engine so it is a trade-off.

What we don't know is how good "exactly" it is. Like if someone says Murad detects 1 square meter target at 200km i wouldn't oppose it because when I calculate with the data I know about MURAD radar it is a realistic estimation. We know it is better than APG-83 because we know the performance of...

I wonder what will happen to the judge?

Prototype fighter takes longer to modernize serial modernization is quicker. Examples: Turkish CCIP program, Greek Viper program, etc.
