Same US, however, will impose sanctions if you contradict this regime agreement and even sell technology or parts contrary to MTCR. It is a tough world with too much hypocrisy. India, a non NATO member buys one s400 after another and is not sanctioned. In fact offered f35s. We, an ally NATO...

If a missile has a range more than 300km and can carry explosives more than 500kg, you are not supposed to sell it under MTCR (missile technology control regime) rules.

You can’t stick that butt out too much. With afterburners on, it gets too hot there. Also this plane uses a parachute to stop. I have a feeling they may put it there. Having said that; Kaan was designed to have AESA radars in both the front and the rear of the aircraft. It was expected to have...

That guy is the black sheep of Iskenderun. One of the biggest BS talkers around with little or no technical background. Please try to avoid sharing his posts here.

https://turdef.com/article/idef25-tayfun-block-4-packs-a-bigger-punch-with-more-reach Well, we were wondering about Tayfun Blocks 2 and 3. Apparently an 8m long version of Tayfun as Block 3 has already been tested to hit a sea target. This is the block that is being developed for the sea...

Now I am going to play the devil’s advocate. 1. This means that the Gokbora has not flown yet. Even if it has, it hasn’t flown to hit a target. 2. There is still quite a bit of work to be done. If Aselsan takes its time to develop a seeker head, then the missile’s readiness will be delayed...

They certainly will. It will strengthen our position and give us a head start. But we still need to twist the arms of those in the Congress.

Nice but we still need Congress approval for actual sales.

How about something related to Piaggio ?

It all depends on how the buyer is manipulated whilst listening to the buyer’s needs, and putting that at the top of the list. There is also the matter of how these negotiations are conducted behind closed doors. Regarding TF2000, the real question is whether we want a ”Jack-of-all-trades”...

Bro you have mixed different technologies and made a concoction out of it. (In Turkish a Çorba) First of all CRDE is a technology that is not used by any missile or platform yet. Only recently did they manage to apply it to test platforms. There is still a long road ahead. First it will be...

Bro, reading above doesn’t make sense. You are showing CRDE details and talking about scramjet. Then you are talking about hypersonic and ballistic missiles. Can you please explain in depth what you mean? Ballistic missiles like Bora, Tayfun reach hyoersonic speeds during their flights...

One is licence for direct sale of planes, The other is co production licence with 3 other members in Turkey. There must be some legal back door, that would enable to bypass the first export licence situation. We will find out on 24th if it is true.

There is fine line here. export licence vs parallel export licence. If you listen to the video, he says to overcome outright export licence a parallel export licence will be utilised. There is supposed to be a signing ceremony on 24th between Tusas and Airbus. According to that video, my...

In fact he is talking about Starmer and Merz agreeing on a kind of parallel production licence being given to Turkey to overcome the hurdle of Germany agreeing to the export licence. Somehow a form of production licence to be given to Turkey similar to the production of the F16s. That means...

Just check out the front aerodynamic geometry. This missile is designed to have low drag. It should have a high terminal velocity.

This is truly a rabbit out of a hat instant. We were waiting for a liquid/gel fuelled ramjet a2a missile. They most likely gave us a solid fuelled ramjet that is small enough to fit in to internal bays of KAAN and even KE. It is too small to have a fuel tank, compared to the given approximate...

3 missiles positioned at Izmir peninsula, Hatay, Hakkari and their coverage.

Making mid course manoeuvres to trick AD systems and being able to hit a moving target are two different things. When the missile has a two way datalink to perform controlled course corrections during flight then it may hit a moving target. Imaging Infrared seeker is another method. But at such...
