Ram has a 10km range Sungur has 8km. Sungur can match the range of Ram with slight modifications. 1 Ram missile costs nearly as much as an ESSM i would rather pay that money for ESSM than RAM. RF seeker(more correctly RF interferometer) is not a strength on the contrary it might be a weakness...

That pure anti-missile missile will be fired from VLS. Do you know how much a Ram system cost? Fucking 25-30 million $ And for what? Similar performance to a Sungur which is magnitudes cheaper.

LoL Macron offered credits and donations to Zelensky for the recognition of the current status of Donbas and releasing water for Crimea. This guy is on Russian payroll. There is no doubt about that. Joe Biden also chickened seems like everyone is a gangsta until they speak to Putin. Let that be...

Sungur is way better than Stinger or similar MANPADS apart from having an IIR seeker it has a continuous titanium rod warhead which is better at stopping threats compared to HE frag warheads so a Ram like a system is possible. A slightly scaled-up Sungur with a range of 10km will be a lot...

IT is called multi-function radar. Most of the time like %99 those radars operate in LPI pulse mode. Illumination is a very risky business in EW unless you know what you are doing. Most of the time stealth aircraft fly in complete RF silence( fighters like F-35 fly in listening/passive mode).

The closest competitor has a 250mm diameter and 1250N thrust. TJ-300 is lighter, smaller but produces more thrust. I think TEI did enough optimizations TEI should get to the reliability and durability tests ASAP like rain, hail tests etc.

This radar uses continuous wave. Continues wave radars are mainly used for target illumination. Pulse radars are used for target detection. You don't want to continuously send RF signals to the target even if you modulate them unless you want to illuminate the target. IMHO this radar might be...

Tubitak radar is an advanced x-band illumination radar for air defense systems. This is probably a QWIP SWIR sensor. Aselsan has been producing QWIP SWIR sensors for a long time. 1440x576 QWIP SWIR sensor is the IR sensor of Aselflir-300T.

I don't think it will ever be armed with a 300mm artillery rocket TR(L)G-300 (585kg and 670kg for enhanced warhead). 230mm TRLG-230 is a more compatible option(210kg). IMHO best option would be new lighter medium-range anti-ship missile(MRAShM 300kg). It is IIR guided can be used against targets...

Umm sorry but TAI Anka is the first armed drone of Turkey, not TB2.

This part is important and it lines with the info I have. HD thermal sensors will be used in Aselflir-500C. The second half of 2022 for initial availability also suggests that the thermal sensors' design is already completed and taping out is happening nowadays. I expect 500C to mostly use...

I dont mind Bayraktars having a political side, openly supporting AKP or openly criticizing the opposition. What I care about is what you claim should be true(especially if it is a technical issue like the percentage of national contribution) and no favoritism should be done because of your...

Yes, I know it is old news. 77K means it is cryogenic and it has a 15x15μm pixel size. Product qualification was done in 2020. It is already in production. There is a similar project(640*512 MWIR T2SL) but with a 10μm pitch size(10*10μm pixels which means less than half the size sensor size)...

This is good and true but this shouldn't turn into favoritism. I have witnessed many people over the years on the internet bragging about Tb2s %93 national production rate meanwhile Anka was much more national and local. They were misguided for years. Bright minds like the Bayraktar brothers...

Şimsek target drones IR signature is quite low and it is even lower from the front section keep that in mind. And yes this missile has 360-degree engagement capability.

We might see this on Kargı kamikaze drone.

There are also things like protective coatings which reduces heat gain of IIR seeker through air friction from the lenses. Also cooling system of the seeker (It is an actively cooled IIR seeker)

Akya heavy torpedo is optimized against bigger ships. So this guy is also a serious ship killer. BTW live firing tests of Ulaq patrol variant are planned to be done in may which means phase one of Ulaq project will be completed.

There are already huge amounts of(thousands) Paveway-2 and LGKs in the inventory. This is a continuation contract of LGK project for Mk84s. Over a thousand HGK was also ordered in separate contract deliveries of which was completed in 2019. Production of HGK/KGK/LGK will never stop.
