The wing deployment and target part is from F-16 MK-83 KGK tests. Maybe they simply do not have the footage of the target.

Not nitpicking, nice video, but the wing deployment and target part is from the F-16 MK-83 KGK test.

Some products are listed, but maybe some are hidden as you say. I’ll keep my expectations low to be happy if there is a surprise.

This is very logical and wise way to develop a supersonic drone. A small scale demonstrator or technology demonstrator will require less budget, containing fewer unknown and risks... unlike the MMU development model. I hope they try low observable technologies on Göksungur too.

I found it on milliyet web page but it was not giving any info. found this in twitter, did not search more yet: The Russians are masters of strategic and tactical deception, if they say TB2 is jamming and causing problems etc, it may serve other purposes.

The guy said according to TASS agency, I could not find it.. however I found a similar one: https://www.globaldefensecorp.com/2021/04/27/turkish-bayraktar-tb2-encircles-crimea-with-sigint-kit/ This photo is also old...

~100km is just my estimate for theoretical maximum range when launched from F-16, but energy losses are not factored in (which could be very high). Miniature bomb actual range 101 km from 40.000ft by F-16 MAM-T theoretical range (=actual will be less....so real range will be more than 80 and...

According to this info, it’s the same glide ratio. Then ~65km with Hürkuş@30000ft, ~100 km from F-16@40000ft looks possible from the stated launch altitudes and speeds. (Energy loss to drag not calculated, just rounded down the numbers, but since original is a worst case scenario, with the help...

For this Aksungur should cruise 1.5x higher, like if it was at 20.000 ft it should climb to 30.000, or 15.000ft to 22.500 ft. (Probably 20-25.000 ft is enough if it glides like other winged bombs)

It could also be slow motion footage + wide angle lens effect. Maybe instead of 11 seconds it’s only 5 seconds fall.

Original from: http://www.ausairpower.net/TE-GPS-Guided-Weps.html 60km 30.000 ft is a guess. Miniature bomb did not fit, so use the extended line... Note the general shapes of the munitions. AGM-130 is interesting, it looks like a brick, but rocket powered version of GBU-15 and performs like...

Yes, too much unknowns... For example, SDB range is for more than 50 nautical miles (92.6km) at 40.000 ft at Mach 0.95. https://www.af.mil/News/Article-Display/Article/129512/acc-declares-small-diameter-bomb-initially-operational/ I don't think MAM-T is better than SDB aerodynamically, but...

Yes, but how much... Light jet 60km vs Fighter jet 80km? F-5 vs Harrier? See, does not make sense....

Warning: speculation and guesstimates again.... MAM-T range is 30km from UAV, 60 km from light jet and 80 km from a fighter. Does not make sense to me, is it the speed? MAM-L was 15km+ from (if) 18000 ft from TB2. If TB2 flew at 30.000 ft, it would be around 25+ kms. So if Akıncı released...

MAM-T and Miniature Bomb (Turkish SDB) approximate scales (edit: added MAM-L too) Miniature bomb: 1.8m length, 17cm diameter, 100km range from F-16, 139kg, penetration of hard targets, wing span ~1.5 meters based on photos MAM-T: 1.4m length, 23cm diameter, 80km range from F-16, 94kg, wing span...

I think yes, and with recent AI/ML work even a cheap Raspberry Pi or Nvidia Jetson Nano can find and identify a target...especially ships would be the easiest.
