Thank you, that actually solves all the questions. It really make sense if there is a deticated AYR creating data links then CFR can allocate more resources to tracking updating and classification even though technically CFR AESA antenna can create data links. Also, it totally slipped my mind...

FREMM uses Rotating KRONOS NAVAL. Yet it doesn't require illumination radar to guide ASTER interceptors afaik. Yes, but i am not sure what you meant by the comparison? We are talking about Illuminating radar. "A target illumination radar is a special continuous wave radar for the semi-active...

I don't understand why illumination radar is still relevant when SAPAN and SIPER block 1/2 has active seekers? Shouldn't data link antenna be enough for passing guidance data? For example, new generation Frigates like FREMM or FDI doesn't even have any illumination radar.

About that, India and China despite having multiple AC and nuclear submarine fleet are not considered blue water navy. Because it is assumed that they don't have the doctrinal and logistical set up for that (yet). Do you think a blue water set up like French or Royal navy would be the best naval...

Israeli forces are transitioning to the third phase of their operations in the northern Gaza Strip, which will very likely enable Hamas to reconstitute itself militarily. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed that it withdrew five brigades from the northern Gaza Strip on December 31. This...

Technically it can be done, but I think sacrificing Torpedo tubes is almost never a good idea for diesel electric boats. I am firmly against it. Because it doesn't have the large torpedo room of SSNs. So, you gotta be really careful with priority management and don't want your boat to run out of...

New generation Fiber optic gyroscope (FOG) considered to have better performance than ring laser gyroscope (RLG). Roketsan has developed both. https://www.roketsan.com.tr/uploads/docs/kataloglar/ENG/1628389810_navigation-systems.pdf

China unveils new images of its next-generation aircraft carrier https://www.reuters.com/world/china/china-unveils-new-images-its-next-generation-aircraft-carrier-2024-01-03/ https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/our-best-look-at-chinas-nearly-completed-new-aircraft-carrier

This is actually a very good decision. Me, @Knowledgeseeker and few others were hoping for 4x more Istif ships from the beginning. Turkish navy should not be the least capable of three services. Although, I wonder if the resource for carrier development could have been better spent on SSN. But...

@Anmdt Milgem 9-12?

We better hope it is an accident or at least some domestic/international terrorist entity. If it has something to do with Israel then we are definitely going to see an escalation.

More like 1500-2000km. To reach 3000km cenk has to be bigger I think. (both Tayfun and Cenk are supposed to fly a depressed trajectory)

It looks like an Excalibur strike, not HIMARS. And this radar cost around $20-30 millions, not $300 millions.

How old are you if you don't mind me asking?

That is a good number. Does anybody know how much of it defence products and how much of it is Aerospace products?

This War business turned out to be immensely profitable for the West and Europe. Russia Lost approximately 1/4 of its ground combat power without spilling of a drop of NATO soldier's blood. Even if USA and Europe back down now, they already got more than what could have asked for. Conventionally...

Wow! That is big.

@Bogeyman @Gary @Kartal1 new footage.

Your theory seems far fetched. US and Canada are not third world counties that do false flag. They may use existing crisis to their advantage but that does not mean they outright manufacture crisis.
