    TR Missile & Smart Munition Programs

    There is a limit to how smaller you can get. If I would be paying similar prices I would rather have the 100kg one which gives real stand-off capability and adequate destruction without becoming big and clunky.

    The UK doesn't need to spend thousands of them. The UK's only military presence is their overseas support missions with the US. They can afford overpriced exotic products we can't. MQ-9B Skyguardian is an overpriced failed product too. Akıncı>Skyshit. That's why the UK is swallowing her pride...

    More lethal compared to what? What is the measurement of lethality. I would put an armor-piercing capability similar to Atmaca and can say my warhead is more lethal now. What is the total amount of energy both warheads release? That is the real question. There is no way a 140kg explosive...

    I would rather have a 100kg missile with a bigger more lethal warhead that can reach 50+km(real replacement for AGM-65 Maverick and excellent capability for UAVs, naval assets, choppers, and land-based launchers) and pay 11 liras for it rather than having a 50kg missile with a smaller warhead...

    Kuzgun-KY will be an overpriced underachiever for the class it is stationed in. We don't need a Brimstone. It is a failed product it is not cost-effective. Kuzgun has to be cost-effective. Remember triple Ms( Modüler, Müşterek, Maliyet-etkin) Brimstone block-1 is basically Umtas-ER which costs...

    Then you are wrong. No new chemical compound is invented to make a 140kg warhead better than 250kg. What Cabatli said is true.

    Spike-NLOS is a 70+kg missile with a range of 25-30km. I think we should have a 100kg missile with a range of 50km and a heavier warhead rather than a 50kg missile which fits nowhere. It is slightly heavier than Umtas (37,5kg). I would rather have an Umtas-ER (50kg) than Kuzgun-KY (50kg)...

    BTW. I don't want to spoil the surprises but IDEF'21= Missile and smart ammo show. Some of the products will give nightmares to some countries.

    Good luck removing Russians from Libya. The latest reports suggest that Russian regular forces are stationed in some key locations.

    I don't like that. I would rather have Umtas-ER than a 50kg Kuzgun-KY missile.

    They aren't in the same class. Kuzgun-KY (solid fuel) is a 100kg missile. Umtas is a lot smaller and lighter. Kuzgun-KY is even bigger than Spike-NLOS. IMHO it is what a real NLOS missile should be. Kuzgun is very flexible and will be a force multiplier for airforce, land forces, and navy. Think...

    TEI is one of the two companies in the world that can produce the compressor section as a single piece. It is done with the production of single-piece bladed disks (blisks) and welding them together with inertia welding to manufacture a single-piece compressor section. The other company with...

    The difference between Fersah and Yakamoz is Fersah can transmit more power so it has a longer range. Fersah also has a mine detection mode and probably better signal processing. Yakamoz 2020 is the next-generation version of Yakamoz.

    Interesting. General Musa Avseven is a Kemalist. He was mentioned in the bill of indictment of the Ergenekon case. Supposedly, he was tasked to burn the cars of then prime minister Erdogan. Chief-of-Staff Yaşar Güler will retire next year due to old age and as the Commander of Land Forces, he...

    Turning C-130s into firefighting planes with kits is not safe. The US lost one C-130 in the mid-air because of that. TAF helicopter fleet doesn't have buckets to carry water.
