You are not thinking correctly. The minimum requirements of such an aircraft will be even lower. If such a project ever happens you might see a 500lbs internal capacity requirement. For example, the minimum requirement of the Gökdoğan missile was 65km range. It easily passes that range today...

This is not necessarily the final capability of the aircraft. This is the minimum requirement the airforce will accept. Everything that is shown in those slide shows are the minimum requirements.

Why the super rapid fetishism? I don't think there is a big performance difference between compact and super rapid. This is not a small-caliber short-range CIWS system that relies on fire rate. This is a navy project. The project requirements are handed to the MKE via the Navy project office...

It depends. There are no concrete numbers on this issue as it is deemed confidential. My calculations are based on 1 batch per year for 7 years. I know how many items in a batch but I don't know how many batches were delivered in total. It is either one( probably) or 2 (less likely)batches per...

There are certainly more advanced variants in development. Will we hear anything about it? Who knows? There are no production numbers mentioned but we know that it was in production for a really long time. The project contract was signed in December 2009 and the project is finished in January...

It fits well with the dates Mr. Temel Kotil mentioned before. He said that the first delivery will happen in 2028(probably in Q3 or Q4) and now we learn that IOC(Initial Operational Capability) is in 2030 so far so good.

Ah here we go. 15µm 1024*768 MCT MWIR sensor coupled with SWIR sensor so it is a multisensor targeting system and probably has image fusion(just guessing) capability. 1280*720 HD sensor is not far away. Whatever we talk about here happens so I expect to see a 1280*720 HD sensor in 2023 kinda...

I explained in detail why they are not the same. Brayton cycle is the same that is it. That is why China is having real difficulty switching Soviet to western single crystal turbine blades. For example, Russian RD-33 and AL-31 use directionally solidified turbine blades while Turkish TS-1400...

False. Western engines use single crystal turbine blades. Soviet tech is different they manufacture turbine blades differently. This is why they are not durable and their overall performance is worse than their western counterparts. On the good side, they are cheaper and easier to produce. If...

https://www.tei.com.tr/tr/urunler/tei-ts1400-turbosaft-motor-gelistirme-projesi TS-3000 will produce more power. As the name suggests it is in the 3000 shp (take-off power) class. TS-1400 produces over 1400 shp take-off power with a ratio of 8.54shp/kg which means it weighs ~164kg. It indeed...

The rights of the AL-450T(T for Turkish version) engines belong to Blacksea Shield.

Western turbines and Soviet turbines are very different. Ukraine has little to offer in terms of TS-3000 development. I don't think we need any assistance from anyone after developing TS-1400.

It is very rare to see.

Can you guys send the link to the recording of the online meeting?

VK-2500 is developed from TV3-117. It is the next generation TV3-117.

2023 will be a crazy year. We will be bombarded with the defense industry achievments. Selecting the motor sich engine(VK-2500) is the right call. IMHO the selected engine is hands down the best engine based on soviet tech and one of the best available engines in its class in the world. It is...

The helicopter is flying perfectly. It is extremely stable. The helicopter encountered no vibration issue since its first flight and this is very rare in helicopter development. The transmission and rotor have perfect coherence with the body.

North Korea has thousands of rocket and gun artillery systems and god knows how many artillery rockets and shells NK has in storage. This is useless. NK is not Hamas. Systems like Iron Dome are useless against countries with military production capabilities.

It will increase Ka band data capacity 15 times.

We don't need 20 TF-2000, 10 TF-4500. We don't have enough budget what we need are workhorse frigates to replace our aging fleet. Ideally, we need 8-12 I class. in reality we will get 4. There won't be any TF-4500 before 2030 and TF-2000 won't be put on a drydock before 2023. This means we need...
