Congratulatory message from Haluk Görgün, President of SSB: Bayraktar TB-3 made world record as the first UCAV, capable of both taking off and landing from a ship with a short runway! This success is an indicator not only of the Turkish defense industry, but also of our pionering in the global...

Unless I miscalculated, TB-3 completed its first landing test just below 100 meters. I know the Navy is planning to procure more than 30.

Well, 500kg(1100lbs) payload is very ambitious, the helicopter really has to grow and get much heavier if this payload range is targeted. Probably one of the most important requirements in naval rotary-wing drone will be flight endurance, keeping this payload in the air for a few hours, being...

The F-4 is truly a timeless design, whether you are interested in aviation or not, its stance in the skies is very striking. It always creates unforgettable shots if there are good aviation photographers in a well planned organization.

Through James Bird's lens: The 50th anniversary paint scheme of the F-4E has already attracted the admiration of many aviation photographers. Of course, the low valley crossing, which was done in a way to give the best photo to the audience, played a big role in this...

Does the EF with TAF roundel look great on you too, or is it purely psychological? (Şu anlaşmayı sağ salim tamamlasak da biraz rahatlasak)

Also, making the aircraft navalized and strengthening the landing gear will significantly affect the total weight of the aircraft. At first, I had the idea that a maximum payload capacity approaching 12,000lbs would be possible, as the Koreans did with the F404, but now I think it will be below...

Unfortunately, I think that this situation may have a negative reflection on the foreign market. For this very reason, we can say that developing LCA with the same engine configuration as AJT would not be the right approach in terms of domestic needs. For the foreign market, an FA-50 equivalent...

Mehmet Demiroğlu, General Manager of TAI: There is a serious demand for our HÜRJET in Europe, North Africa, Central Asia and the Turkic republics. Our negotiations with them have also progressed considerably. We are even making progress with a customer from across the ocean, with whom we have...

According to government party spokesperson Çelik, the Turkish Armed Forces have completed preparations for a ground operation. Waiting for the President's order. Russia's growing discomfort, especially in the recent period, must be related to this. We have to start the operation before the...

Forgive my ignorance, there are probably different types of rockets and techs in question here, but I wonder why these 3 companies are not joining forces with a joint consortium to create a common launch system infrastructure?

If we ignore the efforts that were thwarted in the early years of the Republic; The Turkish Air Force has come to this day with a platform acquisition adventure that is completely dependent on foreign sources. KAAN is not only a new generation combatant platform, but also a domestic industrial...

Probably. I am aware that I left a 10-year optimism gap. What I wanted to point out, even a one-to-one modernisation of fleets as we move from 4.5 to 5+ will create a huge order blocks. Newly planned Viper and if realized, Typhoon fuselages can see 2060 as you said, which makes a maximum of...

Eurofighter is in the Permission Process in Germany In response to questions regarding the latest status of Eurofighter procurement within the scope of Minister Yaşar Güler’s recent statements, Ministry of National Defence sources said, “The sale of the Eurofighter Typhoon aircraft to our...

With the current F-16 fleet of around 230 aircraft, 40 new Vipers and, according to the defense minister, 40 Typhoons, a fleet size of around 310 4.5+ generation jets should indirectly suggest that the TAF will acquire at least around 300 new generation jets in the next 25 years.

I am not as hopeful as some friends about this single-engine KAAN. The reason for this is the possible platforms of the TAF combat fleets that are slowly becoming apparent for next 20 years. Especially when compared to the payload capacity and typical operational radius, a scale is seen to have...

If the ship commander did not take Baykar's social media employee on board, this rumor may possible. Jokes aside, I think all the test flights of the TB-3 have been shared on social media so far. I don't know if the sea tests will proceed more discreetly within the navy.
