    “Toz” is an old Turkish bow term: Türk yaylarının boyu 90-134 cm’dir. Kurulmamış haldeki profili yayın savaş, hedef veya menzil yayı olmasına göre değişir. Yayın tipi de yüzey bitiminin nasıl olacağını belirler. Menzil yayları “toz” denilen huş ağacı kabuğu ile kaplanırdı. Bu şekilde, yay...

    Boostered G40 maybe 🤣 The name suggests something able to shoot far away, could be anything though... http://www.turkishculture.org/military/arms/archery-748.htm

    Don't know what it is but designing slightly bigger engines before MMU sized engines are more logical. 6000 lbf -> ~2700kgf i.e. Baykar MİUS is 3.5 tons. T/W of it will be ~ 0.77, not bad for a general purpose combat drone, Baykar or TUSAŞ drone. For air-air task a lighter drone can also...

    32000ft was probably a calculation error, using the wrong axis for altitude instead of range.... I could not repeat it. I calculated using 3-4 other references then gave up because the range is always found below 10 kms, but the interception according to videos was between 15-10kms. Today I...

    I tried to calculate this using the footage... it looks like 32000ft where it shows the drone, +3000 ft for the elevation... so 35000ft is possible. (effective altitude of the target for Hisar is still 32.000ft, the performance will be better than a sea level to 32000ft launch due to less...

    TR HÜRJET-Advanced Jet Trainer/ Light attack aircraft

    Leading edge extensions over the intakes are gone (the new one has a different geometry and does not feel like it is a continuation of the wing in airflow sense), also blended "wing-body transition" looks better on the mockup. Lack of those made the plane a bit uglier. But maybe it's because...

    Probably we don't have any, like the earthquake safety areas... but normal buildings can be used as shelters, Israel also does this for rocket attacks. If you need a booster to intercept distant targets, it may be worth the risk, shorter range intercepts also have the problem of missile...

    Why concentrate on disadvantages instead of advantages? - civilian problem -> send them to shelter via warnings and alerts, use a light booster like Delta-V uses. There is always a risk with every missile: - Minimum range probem -> for short range remove the booster

    My frustration: The normal method: add booster to normal missiles to increase range. Accumulate some experience even if there are failures. The other (Turkish) method: Let’s develop a long range missile with a lot of requirements first. We don’t know if booster will be used, we may consider...

    We need boosters, the range will go above 100km very quickly. The space sounding rockets were multistage if I recall correctly, so who is holding Roketsan for tactical missiles? Maybe they are already working on it...

    Compare with Hisar-O launch, yellow 100km and 50km circle was there too. The blue is different for Hisar-O, only available at some sectors, perhaps it’s adjustable (i.e. User defined zone)...

    Who are they? A pilot An engineer An intelligence officer The team releasing the footage should contain all. They should not race to release the footage on the same day. From the HUD footage I can confirm some other estimates and have an idea about the missile, target altitude difference...

    I think we should separate those things: - military or company leaking info - some forum member using this info - some forum member leaking info 1 and 3 is bad. For example, why we need to see this in our first WVR test: It’s partially blurred but the rest still tells so many things. If...

    This also confirms, hit was made around maybe 12 kms.... I like how they blurred the screens.... they should blur more imho... Recent Baykar videos are also censored a bit, which is a good direction.....

    Just watch and pause the videos. The same bird to the left and down side of KGK. Wave pattern is the same. Same for the wing deployment part.
