Kaan will have 360-degree jamming and 270-degree radar coverage.

Yes, Italian engines will be locally produced by BMC under a license.

Maybe it has a dual-thrust rocket motor. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual-thrust_rocket_motor

Akbaba has flown with the solid fuel ramjet engine and is very close to its first delivery. Those missiles will use a similar engine if not the same engine. Aselsan will deliver AESA seeker of Gökhan in 2026. Seeker of the Gökbora will be a variant of Gökhan seeker if not the same. Sage and...

Yes. It is possible but only big ballistic missiles can carry a 2000lb payload. Tayfun Block 4, for example, might be a candidate for it. The range of the Tayfun block 1 will be severely reduced if a 2,000-pound warhead is attached to it. Tayfun Block 1 carries a 1000lbs class warhead.

According to some rumours, 3 Altays that are delivered to the land forces for tests will be officially accepted soon, like new deliveries, but in fact, no new deliveries will be made until later this year. Altay MBT also didn't attend the parade in IDEF. It is showcased on a BMC tank carrier.

NEB penetrated 7m C50 concrete reinforced with 25mm ribbed steel on top of that penetrated additional concrete block weighing 1.5 tonnes in tests executed in HABRAS test area. NEB penetrated 90m of rocky area in real-world tests deployed from a fighter aircraft. Similar US weapons can...

7th to 10th vessels in 36 months damn, that is fast. We will have 9 OPVs (1 is sold to Romania) by mid-2028. Also, there is news that starting from the 3rd OPV, weapons load will be increased with 8x MIDLAS VLS.

Gökbora Length: 3.75m Diameter: 180mm Weight: ~200kg (estimate) Propulsion: Solid fuel ramjet Midcourse Guidance: INS+two-way data-link Terminal Guidance: Aselsan AESA seeker+optimal guidance algorithms Warhead: HE Frag Fuses: Impact, Tubitak SAGE Laser target proximity sensor. Foldable fins...

I doubt this. I think Turkish weapons and subsystem integration are on the agenda.

Yes, I think so, but it depends on the warhead. Roketsan might have gone for a bigger 1000 or 1500kg warhead we don't know the details. Confirmation from Commander of the land forces General Selçuk Bayraktaroğlu. Tayfun block 4 will enter the inventory by the end of this year. I want to add...

Tayfun block 2 and 3 are classified and won't be announced or unveiled. The sources I reached say they are in the inventory. Cenk will also have blocks and it is expected to be unveiled in the next IDEF and similar to Tayfun, some blocks and some product data will stay classified. Tayfun block 4...

Yeah, TUSAS hid the engine section of the UAV very well. It looks clean.

This missile can reach 2000km depending on the payload weight. This is a big missile and, as pointed out, it has a low drag profile.

Gökhan will definitely fit inside the belly internal bays of KAAN. Those bays are monstrous. IMHO at this point, 4x Gökhan inside mid internal bays and 2x Gökbora inside side internal bays are guaranteed.

IMHO propulsion part is ready( solid fuel ramjet Akbaba is in tests and trials for a while now). AESA seeker will probably be delivered soon. I expect advanced tests in 2026 similar to Gökhan. Both of them will probably have a similar AESA seeker from Aselsan.

You can triple the ground to ground range when it is launched from the air, depending on trajectory. If it follows a straight line like IHA-230 it will have slightly more than 2x range. If it follows a ballistic trajectory, it can have slightly more than 3x range.

Pretty much sums it up and probably a lot of USV and UUV.

I'm also suspicious of this. It will probably fit side internal bays of KAAN. It is compatible with internal weapon bays of Kızılelma there is no doubt about that.
