    Gökhan will definitely fit inside the belly internal bays of KAAN. Those bays are monstrous. IMHO at this point, 4x Gökhan inside mid internal bays and 2x Gökbora inside side internal bays are guaranteed.

    IMHO propulsion part is ready( solid fuel ramjet Akbaba is in tests and trials for a while now). AESA seeker will probably be delivered soon. I expect advanced tests in 2026 similar to Gökhan. Both of them will probably have a similar AESA seeker from Aselsan.

    You can triple the ground to ground range when it is launched from the air, depending on trajectory. If it follows a straight line like IHA-230 it will have slightly more than 2x range. If it follows a ballistic trajectory, it can have slightly more than 3x range.

    Pretty much sums it up and probably a lot of USV and UUV.

    I'm also suspicious of this. It will probably fit side internal bays of KAAN. It is compatible with internal weapon bays of Kızılelma there is no doubt about that.

    Gökbora is probably a solid fuel Ramjet, while Gökhan is gel based. The range of the Gökbora is announced as 100 nautical miles (185km).

    This is not a FAC (Fast Attack Craft). This is a light corvette or we can call it a heavy gunboat, to bring back gunboat legacy. IMHO, Navy still needs a true FAC design to complement this, optimized for speed and firepower instead of endurance and tonnage. It can be either manned or unmanned...

    Bora is 2500kg, but is Gökbora air launched Bora? It remains to be seen. If it is indeed air-launched Bora, it might be lighter compared to ground launched variant. Pylons 4 and 6 of F-16 have a load limit of 4500lb, ~2000kg.

    I thought Tayfun Block 4 missile would have a diameter of around 750 to 800mm. It has a 328mm bigger diameter than the current Tayfun. This is what i would expect from Cenk. A 900+mm diameter class missile. Tayfun has a volume of ~1,90 cubic meters (πr^2*h) (3,14*0.305^2*6.5). It weighs 2300kg...

    There is an anti-ship variant, but I don't know which block it is. Probably either block 2 or 3. I don't know why Roketsan named this block 4. This is a completely new missile. If this missile has 938mm diameter Cenk will probably have 1250mm diameter. That will put Cenk in an interesting place.

    It might be. The difference between Neb-1 and Neb-2 is that the second stage is a thermobaric explosive, as far as I know.

    Wow, that is a huge missile. Its diameter is bigger than 900mm, combined with a 10m length, it's no surprise that it weighs 7200kg.

    TR Missile & Smart Munition Programs

    I don't know the diameter, but 10m hints at a missile that carries a warhead which weighs around half a ton to a range over 1500km. The total weight of the missile should be around 6000kg at max. This is my prediction based on the limited information at hand.

    Yeah. You need specialized buildings, doors etc, for the facilities that produce solid fuel rockets. Even the construction of those facilities is a problem. Workers need special training. Paraffin has no such needs and risks. Oxygen is also pretty safe if you are careful. There are like...
