    Akıncı won't be a frontline UAV but it will be good enough to handle 3rd world airforces and aircraft other than fighters with AESA radar, jamming, and A-A missile combo. MiUS is fast enough that firing an A-A missile from MIUS or an F-16 won't change effective range much. On the other hand, it...

    MIUS and Akıncı will have an AESA radar. IIR missiles can be used with FLIR, optionally UAVs can be used to only carry and fire missiles another radar can illuminate the target.

    Gökhan ramjet A-A missile will fly close to hypersonic speeds according to Tubitak Sage director Mr. Gökhan Okumuş. The hypersonic flight starts at Mach 5 so it will most likely fly at Mach 4+ at the terminal stage. Gökdoğans top speed is Mach 4 but rocket-propelled missiles cant maintain their...

    No, Pakistan bought 4 modified Milgem for if I'm not mistaken 1 billion $. But the cost doesn't include Pakistani(Harbah missiles for example) or other foreign subsystems(like CAMM for example). So the cost of "i class" can reach as high as 400 million per ship depending on what is in the deal...

    You read that wrong. Erdo tells the EU and the US that as long as I'm in power I can keep refugees but if I'm gone you guys will have millions of refugees at your doors. He is very experienced when it comes to political messages.

    BTW <13m wingspan is a lot for a 5-6 tonne aircraft. It is more than enough. MİUS will have "cooperative target detection" capability. This will be a big advantage against other 5th gen aircraft. Smart squadron ability. A MiUS squadron can work with each other and with friendly aircraft to...

    It is possible but AL-222/322 engine is a good proven design besides we need 2x TS-1400 to power a heavy drone like that which will change the design drastically moreover the compressor section of TS-1400 has to be redesigned.

    I think the engine won't be AL-25TLT with this updated design and MTOW of 5+tonnes the engine has to be in the class of AL-222/322. Probably with a dry thrust of around 5000lbf. My candidate is Al-222 with an afterburner. http://www.motorsich.com/eng/products/aircraft/tde/ai-222/

    I meant shorter in length. Choice of compound delta wing also made in this regard shorter wings to land to an LHD. The use of canards adds another layer to that.

    Yeah, you usually don't use canards with subsonic aircraft. With canards, you can also make main wings smaller which means you can take-off from/land to LHD easier. I can sense that this is the start of something big.
