    I expect Siper Block 2 to be a very compact (<700kg) up to 150km range missile without DACS and with improved guidance.

    T-629 mock-up. It looks very similar to patent drawings.

    TR Renewable energy, investment, potential

    Yes, but I doubt we can add that much renewable electricity. We need to add 4800 MW of renewables in 3 years so that ratio stays similar.

    TR Renewable energy, investment, potential

    We are very close to that target. In 2022 over %40 of electricity is generated from renewables. I guess with the nuclear energy plant in Akkuyu the ratio might fall to some extent as it will alone add %10 more to the current production capacity.

    TR Oil & Gas Exploration Update & Discussion

    TPAO uses AI-assisted geological models constructed by the data they collected (magnetic-gravity data, 2D and 3D seismic data, data obtained from wells and core drillings) This caused a new dawn in TPAO exploration activities.

    Current reserves are at 1 billion barrels and are expected to rise with consecutive studies. Oil is a high-quality 41 API gravity. The recoverable oil ratio is high. 100k barrel daily peak production when production ramps up Drilling activities will continue on a tight schedule similar to...

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Do you mean nozzles? Because we are already trying to produce a similar engine. I highly doubt that nozzles are a priority right now. I don't think they are planned for block 10 or 20. Maybe for later blocks and iterations of the engine who knows?

    TR Oil & Gas Exploration Update & Discussion

    Our consumption is fluctuating between 900-950k barrels per day. I hope we can stabilize it at around 1 million that would be great. With the economic growth, consumption increases but we are investing big in green technologies to counteract that increase so we should be able to stabilize around...

    I can say with high confidence that this is a conservative announcement. We should expect more in the future.

    100 F110 is planned to be bought from GE. There are ongoing negotiations to produce them in TEI at least some of them under GE license. 40 KAAN block 10 is planned to be delivered and it is planned to switch to the national engine starting from 41. fighter(block 20). 100 engines are enough for...

    TS-3000 will happen but it is not a priority. It seems like we secured license production of Ukrainian engines.

    It is hinted as 150km+. It is "extremely compact in comparison to" its range. SM-2 is a huge missile compared to this. It won't be that big. I have %100 confidence that it will be a lot lighter compared to SM-2.

    Bullshit Correlation is not causation. Everybody is sharing news around the clock because it is the historical time of Turkish aerospace. I wrote what I know and with reasons. This is not a place to satisfy your personal ego or imaginary beef with me. Grow up, stop personal accusations I can...

    The national engine is planned to be delivered in 2028 for flight tests. If everything goes as expected the first MMU with the national engine will be delivered in 2030.

    There is a reason why that nose is like that unless they completely ditch that idea (which might happen) don't expect any changes. There is an ongoing argument and engineering discussion inside the team about where to put the radar. If you put it on the rotor it comes with increased mechanical...

    Good to have refueling capability. It is a force multiplier.

    TR Air Defence Programs

    Yes, but there will be more missiles. This is an extremely compact missile in comparison to its capability and we will be able to at least dual-pack this beast. It also seems like the guidance is vastly improved ( this is a must due to the longer range) there are 4 external antennae just behind...

    TR 2023 Turkish presidential election

    I really wonder let's say what he said is true what can he do? Will he show a knife to Erdo? Will he start a civil war? How many people will follow him? He should be preparing the necessary countermeasures right now rather than playing the badass.

    You are saying Khan and Khagan are the same thing they are related but not the same. Especially not in the context of Turkish usage. Even during the Ottoman times Crimean "Khans" were vassals of Ottoman "Kağan/Hakan". In Turkish use, khagan means khan of khans and is a higher title than a khan.

    According to what I learned no big changes are expected for the shape of Atak-2.
