    TR Altay Main Battle Tank & Related Programs

    I don't think we are producing 1000 Altay. We will probably produce 250 pieces and move to a better design. Producing 1000 Altay is useless.

    BTW KTJ-3200 and Arat are very similar. Rather than a new engine, i would say, it is an iteration of KTJ-3200.

    It is not just uranium 232 bunch of other fissile by-products pollute the uranium by producing hard gamma rays that can damage electronics. A bomb is doable but nukes are already a very expensive business why go to the lengths to produce it from Thorium...

    True. It can also be used as a multi-purpose system with its IR sensor( against sea and land targets). Çakır also ends with IR infrared and Çakır also refers to eyes of a person is another hint for IR guidance.

    This is misleading some of them are start dates and some of them are delivery dates. For example MAAT(ammo disposal facility) project started in 2007 but delivered in 2012 as far as i know. MAAT(ammo disposal facility) MGÜB (modular military base) DYÜ(base bleed unit) DSH(submarine warfare...

    I wonder what this is. Project names and actual names of the products differ a lot in the Turkish defense industry. Example: Project name: MIDAS= National Dipping Sonar Product name: Orkun 2053 Project name OMTAS-UMTAS Product name Mızrak-O, Mızrak-U ÇAKIR is probably the name of the product...

    Right now there is no Kara Atmaca and Kara Atmaca is designed for KTJ-3200 from the start. It won't have a foreign engine.

    Oh, I have concrete info on that. It is 500km (it will be advertised as 280km for obvious reasons). It will also be 140kg heavier than Atmaca.

    No. It is extremely hard to produce nukes from Thorium because of impurities. When thorium becomes uranium a shit ton of other elements pollute the uranium and removing those elements and purifying uranium is extremely costly and hard.

    TR Renewable energy, investment, potential

    Thorium molten salt reactors are a realistic way of generating energy, unlike fusion reactors. Once we crack this technology Turkiye will have no energy problems anymore. 3000MW is a huge amount of energy BTW. It is nearly 3x bigger than a single Akkuyu nuclear reactor.

    Atmaca has a 280km range and with some weight optimizations and a new KTJ-3200 engine, Atmaca can reach 350km. French engine has security precautions to limit the range under 300km both in the software/FADEC and in the hardware.

    15 days or even a few months of delay is nothing in a bidding process. ASFAT can still work as a subcontractor of STM(it is very unlikely big money is involved and private shipyards/political involvement won't let a state shipyard get the job). STM can work with a single shipyard or can also...

    And? It is the first prototype. It doesn't mean it will fly. The process will be the same as Akıncı. A prototype doesn't necessarily mean a "working prototype". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prototype https://www.cnnturk.com/turkiye/ucan-balukun-kanatlari-takildi...

    It is not true. China is light years ahead compared to Russia in both electronic warfare and AESA radars.

    Actually no. Americans tested the waters against PLA jammers and find out that their DRFM jammers poses a real threat.
