    It doesn't work like that. Hybrid rocket used in Göktan doesn't have the same thrust density compared to solid fuel rocket used in GLSDB system. Delta V developed a special cryo turbopump to achieve similar thrust densities, but that is reserved for spacefaring rockets as it will make system...

    No it clearly states its total range given. It is my personel source i can't give names. Anyone can ask details at IDEF. If i'm wrong about range, i will apologize. Ah here i managed to find another one who mentions the same thing so no need to give names. It seems like Aselsan magazine...

    30x113 is a small caliber, but I think 30mmx113 airburst is still doable. 25mm ATOM is different though, it just fragments, hope that some of the shrapnels hit the targets.

    A state can function properly in the modern world if it is not a democratic republic (example China), but a state can't function properly in the modern world if it is not a nation state. No amount of Kaans, Kızılelmas will save us if we change the nation state model.

    No, it doesn't have a greater range. Both GLSDB and Göktan have around 150km range. Actually, Göktan might fall a little short. In the test, Göktan travelled 17km horizontally and the payload(Tolun S) successfully detached at a height of around 40000 feet. It should glide around 110 km from...

    Block 2 is longer than Block 1( 6.3m vs 5.4m) and Block 2 has a bigger diameter compared to Block 1 (420mm vs 370mm), so I thought they use different-sized launchers, but it seems like they both use the same launcher.

    Equal= Eşit Equivalent=Eşdeğer. Gliding bombs are difficult to deal with, they are a pain in the ass. Göktan can be deployed as standolane asset to provide firepower and precion strike capability as well as deployed with existing rocket artillery batteries to complement their capability. It has...

    It should be Levent, even if it ends with "d" it should be converted to "t" according to the rules of the Turkish language. Murad is different. Murad is short for Milli Uçak RADarı (M-U-RAD). Levend doesn't stand for anything.

    Kamikaze and reconnaissance drones can be launched with a pressurized gas mechanism. It will be very useful to see behind the hills overlooking the beaches. The problem with anti-tank is they have no loiter capability.
