Soon Akıncı will fly for the first time with the national AESA radar.

MKE is working on a RAP (Rocket-Assisted Projectile) that will have 70-80km range.

Yes. It is planned and designed as a GaN-based radar. The first GaN-based radar(STR) is already in the Turkish armed forces inventory. We are not years away from the GaN technology. It is already in use. Months of delay might happen maybe a year. CAFRAD is also designed as a GaN-based radar but...

Well, he got nothing for Pastor Brunson. I hope he gets something in return this time.

No.

TBH this looks like a bargaining tactic. Erdogan is famous for his backsteps. He will get something in return probably the F-16 deal and some concessions in Syria.

MURAD= Milli Uçak RADarı/ National Fighter Radar

That is great. I sincerely hope Ümit Özdağ gets jailed. This will skyrocket the popularity of Ümit Özdağ and the Zafer Party. Whoever advised this to the ministry of interior must be a covert agent for Ümit Özdağ.

Tubitak SAGE got an order of 1000 Bozok smart munition for Turkiye and allied countries.

I'm against the F-16V deal. Anyone who supports the deal, please don't cry when the US stops the deal because we launched an operation against YPG or conducted drilling activities in the east med. Oh and prepare to get the delivery of new F-16Vs by 2030 if everything goes smoothly. 2022 will end...

I disagree with the argument that Turkiye couldn't find piezoelectric actuators therefore CATS had problems. The real problem with CATS comes from its design. It is not designed to have extreme targeting and stabilization needs of UAVs in mind. It is designed with a mediocre stabilization system...

640*480 17µm microbolometer type detectors will be used for Karaok missile UMTAS and OMTAS will probably be upgraded too. New 16km range UMTAS block 2 will undoubtedly use this kind of detector. But this is not our best microbolometer type detector product. Aselsan has 1024*768 17µm and 640x480...

I have another idea. 2 launchers one in the front and one in the back with 2x11 missiles. Both launchers should have 2x AESA radars for 180-degree coverage. This way 2x launcher can provide 360-degree coverage without the obstruction of the ship's mast and superstructure. Also rather than using...

The whole Turkish defense industry depends on many if(s).

Lol who said to use TF-6000 as is. I said we should use the experience gained from TF-6000. How many turbojet, turbofan and turboshaft projects Turkiye runs at the moment? KTJ series turbojets, Kale Turbofan, TF-6000, TS-1400, soon engine project for TFX will get in shape. We can use the...

Because you are carrying a human.

Yeah currently AKP is in free fall. Anyone can understand the seriousness of the situation if Erdogan is tied with Kılıçdaroğlu. Mansur Yavaş is %17+ ahead of Erdogan it won't even be a close fight if Mansur steps up.

Making a engine for a drone is easier than making an engine for a manned platform. WE can make use of the experience from projects like TF-6000 and ramjet engines and launch a turboramjet engine project for a drone.

I think we should kick start dual-mode engine projects with an aim to reach 4+mach on unmanned systems. This can be done with existing turbofan/turbojet and ramjet technologies. Hypersonic is a really hard nut to crack we should go for high supersonic as a realistic target.

According to some AKP sources, Erdoğan is seriously thinking about not becoming a candidate. If the economic situation doesn't improve Erdoğan might not be a presidential candidate. Latest polls suggest that Kılıçdaroğlu is tied with Erdogan, İmamoğlu slightly wins, and Mansur wins with a...
