Without going in to aerodynamics 101 too much, let us just look at the forces that play a part in flight. There are 4 basic forces that act upon a plane. Weight, Thrust, Drag and Lift. They are all interdependent on each other during the flight. Thrust and speed induced drag, is the force that...

Nice calculation! But in 1973 Yom Kippur war, 3 million Israelis with 400 thousand soldiers; fought against 37million Egyptians, 7 million Syrians, 7 million Saudis and a Moroccan, Iraqi and Cuban contingents with an army over a million soldiers, and still won. It is not quantity that matters...

I like your enthusiasm. I wish if it were that simple though. What you are suggesting entails substantial changes. Hürjet was designed and built primarily as a trainer. As a secondary option it may be configured as a light attack aircraft. Due to these constraints, it’s maximum speed, g-force...

It has to be remembered that, due to MTCR convention, we are not supposed to sell any missiles with ranges more than 300km. So there is no point in declaring that Atmaca-UM has a range of more than that. 280+km covers what it needs to cover. With the KTJ-3700 powering it where specific fuel...

You are correct from heat damage point of view. But there is also the raw physical damage due to high kinetic energy that is imparted by the round to the barrel lining which effects the wear negatively, as the round leaves the barrel at extreme speeds. No cooling will have any effect on this...

They give all these different weights to confuse us. 😂 In another document it says Tolun’s weight is 135kg. But in IIR form it says it weighs 120kg. So since this is a missile under development and progress, one can expect a weight variation of +/- few kg. (Fuel, explosives, seeker type and use...

You are correct. Firing speed is slower. But then again Firtina-1 has a firing mode of 3 shells in 15 seconds with different elevations that allows it to hit same target at the same time. In reality it can fire 3 rounds in 15 seconds. However, the more you fire in succession the quicker you...

Air defence systems are a must. We know that. But how good are they? Israel boasts that their Iron dome is 85% efficient. Yet in reality this is lower. So much so that after the recent events, Israel refuses to give figures about the interception efficacy of their system...

It has to be remembered that the Hisar Class ships are designed with the concept of Fitted But Not With . In other words, they are clean slates ready to receive additions. Hence their initial costs were in the region of 110-120 million dollars each when they were being conceived. (That may have...

https://www.defenceturkey.com/tr/icerik/atmaca-anti-ship-missile-preps-for-serial-production-4250 If you read the above news piece, you will see that Atmaca anti ship missile, in 2020, has managed to hit a surface target from considerably high range with perfect accuracy without using GPS. This...

What has this got to do with what you were asking? I gave you physical prices of UK‘s water and gas per m3. That has enough evidence to answer your query. Waste water constitutes approximately 35% of the bill you have shared. If you take that out of the bill ; you end up with a similar ratio of...

Bro, you will find that the only reason a RAM rotates around its axis is because, the two antennae in front of the seeker head gives a 2 dimensional view. By rotating the missile, the RF tracking system that uses a twin-antenna interferometer that can measure phase interference of the...

1m3 of water weighs ~1000kg. 1m3 of natural gas weighs less than 8.3 kg. In UK 1m3 of gas is ~ 0.55gbp But 1m3 of water is ~1.80gbp So I guess that gives some perspective also pls do not exaggerate. Your example shows 5.9 times. Not 10. within the water bill you have shared there’s is waste...

According to Tolga Özbek’s YouTube message (after 27.05 min), NewYork Times erroneously claimed that Tusas has been supplying fraudulently-certified titanium parts. According to this news piece, it was Infact Tusas that found the problem. Italians buy the titanium. Then having worked on it...
