Canal İstanbul is neither a good project nor a bad project. It is an optional project which should be done when the state coffers are in a healthy position. I would rather finance an aircraft carrier, 4x more I class, more UAVs, and air-defense systems than constructing an optional canal. We can...

Yes exactly. Missile Mach 3= 3675km/h lets round it down to 3600 Target Mach 2=2450km/h lets round it down to 2400 Let's say a Turkish F-16 detects an enemy fighter 100km away and fires a Gokhan missile while both targets fly at Mach 0,9. Let's assume for simplicity both the missile and...

I want to explain this. Tümosan is a civilian company and has been developing military engines for some time. After Tumosan got into the military business it is embargoed by multiple foreign companies which deliver some of the components so Tumosan split up found a new company that develops...

Yes, I know that nearly all of the ramjet missiles(A-A, A-G, and G-G) fly around Mach 2.5-3 as it is the sweet spot but this is what my source said to me. Maybe it is similar to Meteors use case and Mach 4 is for the terminal approach or we are using some new fuel or our ramjet design differs...

As I said neither of those studies involved a solid fuel ramjet engine design. Detonation engines have nothing to do with ramjets. Roketsan's studies revolved around aerodynamic body design, engine inlet design, and new-generation solid fuel research. There was no concrete info other than...

You are right but it is still a taboo for Greece to officially meet the president of TRNC.

%49.9 of the BMC is owned by Qatar does that make BMC a foreign company? Otokar(it isn't an engine producer) or Otosan(is a civilian company that doesn't want to involve in military matters for the fucking OBVIOUS reasons) doesn't produce military engines because it is not their area of...

Directly meeting the President of TRNC.

It wasn't obvious to me and for a lot of people. There were only guesses and suspicions regarding the ramjet studies at Roketsan and none of them include engine design most of the studies were revolving around aerodynamic body and engine inlet designs. Roketsan having a separate ramjet engine...

New info Roketsan works on solid fuel ramjet. Liquid fuel ramjet is a Tubitak project.

Gökhan can be translated as Sky khan or celestial khan. As stated multiple times another missile will be revealed at IDEF in August. Candidates are anti-ship version of Bora ballistic missile, ramjet anti-ship missile/ramjet cruise missile for high-value intensely protected targets, Gezgin...

Silent masses heavily outnumber the loud fanatics.

Ulaq AUSV sea patrol variant (armed with cirit&umtas) is entering serial production. All the design and development tests are done. It is used in an official big navy exercise IMHO biggest and final test ever done and the system is working as intended. From this point on serial production effort...

It might be useful against kamikaze drones but soon UAVs will carry air-to-air missiles it will be useless against heavy tactical, MALE, and HALE UAVs. I guess with a 20kw laser system like the Tubitak Bilgem laser you can reach up to 5km depending on the quality of the hardware and atmospheric...

Sea clutter also becomes a huge problem when you cruise that close to the sea surface. https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/engineering/sea-clutter

This order is most likely related to 35mm modernized Oerlikon. As far as I can remember the original requirement was 100 batteries (100 AIC/Fire Control Vehicle, 300guns). It might also be related to adding Hisar-A vehicles to modernized Oerlikon batteries. Every fire control vehicle has the...

EZ, all other candidates promised another war to take back Karabag.

I doubt Thales will sign another license deal with Aselsan that is nearly impossible and I know that project Hazar(Cenk-S is the product name) has been going on behind the doors for a long time.
