As discussed before, Roketsan clearly state in their site that the guidance system of the Tayfun is GOLIS : Go-Onto-Location-In-Space. This type of guidance is specific to hit stationary targets. There has been talk and rumours about the development of a tactical ballistic missile with...

That is a terrible news. So sorry to hear something like this especially when children are involved.

Make sure you discuss in a civil manner. No name calling anybody or any race. Deviation will attract warnings and a ban. Only people with weak arguments would end up name calling or attacking the opposing views with abusive language.

Bro, how can you call it on steroids? it may look like it. But it hasn’t even got the engine of S70 in it. Heck! It hasn’t got any engine at the moment! The Ukranian engine is far from meeting its needs, even if they can obtain it. As far as I can see, it is an empty shell. When they announce...

I fully agree with everything you have written in your post. Ukraine needs to stay free and on the side of the West. However, Switzerland is not a weak country militarily. It’s geography is its best ally and feature against any potential invader. Every able bodied man in Switzerland and any...

One thing I would like to know why it is LEVEND and not LEVENT !!! I can understand that MURAD is the acronym of Milli Uçak RADarı. But what is LEVEND? While "Levent" is both a name and a title for a sailor or military officer during the Ottoman period, the word "levend" generally carries...

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/milli-hucumbot-projesinde-kritik-surec-basladi/ Manufacturing of the Turkish Fast Attack Craft boats is starting. A model of the latest design will be shown at IDEF. On 8th of July the first steel cutting was performed.

That is exactly what I was thinking of commenting about. Oto Melara has two versions of this auto cannon: “Compact” is with 85 rounds per minute. “Super Rapid” is with 120 rounds per minute. It has special guided rounds for munitions like Vulcano and Dart. Like our Denizhan these cannons are...

If you mean to develop; logically yes. Once you have mastered the ramjet propulsion, usually through liquid fuel systems, then you may tackle the problem of adapting it to solid fuel. Solid fuelled missile systems are like glorified and fine tuned firework missiles. When you add to this a...

Hungarian Defence matters to be discussed here

If you read the early pages of this thread, you would have known that it was discussed here that Akaer was instrumental in the airframe design of certain parts of Hurjet. They may have even been involved in an advisory capacity in the design of KAAN airframe. But that is not confirmed. As you...

Dear members: 1. Watch your language when addressing your fellow members. 2. Refrain from writing nonsensical posts like Turkey condones on the spot executions. 3. This is your last warning. Those behaving contrary will be banned.

Actually I read it well. Also looked in to TUIK graphs in local currency expenditure which were given as an alternative. My point was to do with TUIK’s results being in TL over a ten year period not showing true %ge values. I took google’s dollar inflation value compared with today’s. It gave...

Who says US healthcare is better than ours? %ge of GDP spent is the better criteria. That is all. Read before making untrue statements please. Spending more doesn’t necessarily mean better. Having said that although it is a very fragmented and layered unequally set up system, the US...

These TUIK graphs are no more than self satisfaction and self gratification graphs. 1 dollar was 2.86 TL in 2011 1 dollar was 29.00 TL in 2023. Also dollar lost 43% of its own purchasing value during that time. So if you take 1/10th of the TL spending in 2023 multiply it with 0.43 ; you will...

Why do you think with blinkers and in two dimensions. Think wide and in 3D. What you are suggesting is for Turkey to be producing f16s. Not F35/F22 equivalents. In KAAN we have done the latter. Increase country’s educational level. Produce more scientists not clergies. Educate masses in the...

The additive technologies are not currently used in the manufacturing of HP turbine blades. These are the blades that are subjected to extreme heat. Hence need single crystal tech. The conventional fabrication process for single-crystal nickel-based superalloy materials is directional...

I agree with your second paragraph fully. My only addition would be the introduction of a EJ200 engine as an alternative. Since ITP of Spain has been instrumental in the development of a single engined and TVC version of this engine, it could be an alternative to F404. But it would still delay...

That being said, the real issue still stands; where is the guarantee that these engines are going to be delivered?

So you are either saying that : 1. they are lying to us and they won’t intentionally produce more than 4-5 per year. Or, 2. they are lying to us because they won’t be able to deliver the first B10 planes in 2028. Or, 3. They intend to sit on their laurels with respect to serial production until...
