    If it weren’t any good Danish Navy, Italian Navy, Norwegian Navy, Japanese Navy, Canadian Navy and Royal Navy wouldn’t be using them. It is at home whether it be Mediterranean or Baltic or North Atlantic or Pacific. It has 3 x 2000HP RR engines powering it. Until our 10 ton multi purpose...

    May be one of the main questions we should be asking and discussing here should be if we ought to look in to the development of a VLA missile (Vertical Launch Anti Submarine) system for our Frigates ; especially now that we have an indigenous VLS MIDLAS. Or alternatively use our unmanned ULAQ...

    Ordered , but delayed in delivery as part of EU’s stance against us in East Med stand off with Greece. Could that be the reason and incentive that we quickly produced our 76/62mm version? Being a lot cheaper than the Italian gun I remember officials claiming that, we were since offered the SR...

    MKE currently produce a range of various shells for the indigenous gun. They vary from standard version of particle effect to HE-PD, to HE-VT , to HE-IR. They were also at the last stages of GPS and laser guided version of the shells last year this time. So in terms of actual ammunition types...

    According to I Sunnetci, the I-Class‘s first ship has been furnished with Oto-Melara Super Rapid main gun. That means, we have opted not to install the indigenous MKE 76/62mm gun as previously mentioned. That means Italians’ low price offer to supply this gun has been accepted. So the navy...

    One quick question; If Siper is using Atmaca booster which is 35cm in diameter, how are they going to fit it in to MIDLAS in quad pack which can only accommodate 25.4cm diameter ESSMs? (Assuming it is going to have same dimensions as MK-41 VLS) Surely they must be producing a smaller diameter...

    Wings are foldable. Also does the booster look not as bulky as before? Or is it my eyes?

    TR Cultural Tengrism and Ancient Turkic mythology/symbols

    Yes it does. As Tengri is the Universe itself and has to protect all that is in it, it has to protect nature as well as humans. So to have a balance between nature and the way of life is in the heart of it all.

    TR Cultural Tengrism and Ancient Turkic mythology/symbols

    Apparently, Tengrism teaches to be nice and correct to each other. It tells you that ”Tengri” is all powerful and is the sky and universe itself. It loves all that is in it including us as they are all part of the “Tengri” . “Tengri” is not considered a deity but the personification of the...

    Can this be a prologue to reopening negotiations about f35 deliveries, from the US side? Or is LM saying ; “sort out your state to state differences and take delivery of the planes I have produced for you.“ On another note; Hadn‘t US government instructed LM to prepare these planes to be...

    As per @Quasar ’s explanation, the Low Energy airflow is prevented from entering the intake by spacing the intake from fuselage. It also makes it easier to control supersonic shockwaves generated at intake that may interfere with engine operations. All supersonic jets have some form of this...

    A turbojet engine is most efficient in higher altitudes where air is rarified. All the air sucked in through the fans in to the compression section, after helping burn the fuel in combustion chamber, is exhausted from the nozzle creating jet thrust. 100% of the thrust is generated by the air...

    If you read the shared news-piece carefully, it says that KSA will invest 3.3 Trillion dollars within their national strategic investment plan. Within the scope of this plan, there will be joint ventures with Turkey in certain areas. It doesn’t say there will be 3.3 trillion dollar invested in...

    When you have a limited number of torpedo tubes ( 8 to be precise - 4 of them harpoon/atmaca capable) and very limited spares due to restricted space, you really need to have weapons with a lot of clout. Although TRG-300 is a very capable weapon in it’s own right, it is no match when compared to...

    What you “think” and the reality quite often do not match. Below is the picture of an Abrams tank that took a direct hit of an HE 155mm shell. It is totally destroyed. I can’t find the picture of the Abrams that had turned upside down. But if a 155mm HE shell explodes nearby, believe me, the...
