    https://www.savunmasanayist.com/milgem-91011-ve-12nci-gemiler-icin-kritik-karar/ I was always in the opinion that TF2000 destroyers were an overkill for us at the current climate. With 4 Yavuz Class ships becoming almost obsolete and the 4 Gabya Class not in line with the modern navy we want to...

    TR Attack & Utility Helicopter Programs

    As @Sanchez has pointed out there may be many reasons. These first helicopters may not have some of the Gendarmerie requested specifications yet, and need to be passed through certain tests. Hence delaying actual deliveries. We will find out soon, when they are ready.

    We are becoming paranoid about the West and embargoes. Yes. There are undisclosed embargoes related to many a defence equipment when it comes to Turkey. But a RR owned company like Honeywell that has already signed an agreement and advertised Gokbey being flown by CTS800 engines in it’s site, is...

    AI-322 engine is produced by Motor-Sich of Ukraine. It is a 5500lbf maximum dry thrust level turbofan. The AI-322F version is the afterburner version of this engine developing 9260lbf thrust. As a flying wing this plane can not achieve supersonic flight. Hence no need for the “F” version engine...

    KAAN is a major asset. But in wars, it is these little beauties that win you the battles. (A good example is TB2) . With SOM-J , SDB, HGK, KGK and super Simsek under its belly it will devastate the enemy positions. It is small and inherently stealthy due to its geometry. Married with TF6000 it...

    Finally a piece of good news on Murad! but…. Can somebody explain why on earth you would want a top of the range GaN based expensive Aesa radar on a slow relatively cheap and presumably expendable drone? I wouldn‘t be surprised if Murad costs more than a third of the value of the Akinci that...

    Let us get one thing straight! No military equipment has any commercial value. It is a non productive investment. A. If you buy the military equipment from abroad, you are spending your foreign reserves and buying something that is going to sit idle and be a burden on your economy. If you buy a...

    Can you see the likeness between the two engines in these two pictures? We were expecting TF6000 to be fired. TEI is advertising TF10000. Now that would be a very nice New Year present to the nation if it were true.

    Double Standards of Weapons Sales of Western Powers

    Sorry bro ! But I can’t really agree with what you have written.. First of all, your India example is a cheap way to prove a point. There are many countries that do not abide by rules when it comes to your point of view. We are witnessing that everyday today in Gaza! This site is a peace...

    Re : Typhoon sales to Turkey and Saudi Arabia, (dated 30th Nov) Excerpt taken from The Financial Times: Quote: Berlin’s change of tack could prove diplomatically awkward: Turkey, a Nato ally, has also asked to buy 40 Typhoons, and Germany has refused. Making the case that Riyadh is a more...

    The animated video gives a very good approximation of how the logistics of a 300km range ATACMS missile work. There are few important points that are intentionally omitted. ATACMS is essentially a short range quasi ballistic tactical missile. What makes it deadly is it’s capability to manoeuvre...

    The only helicopter engine they have that can power Atak 2 is the engine that powers Merlin helicopter; The RR - Turbomeca engine. It is now being produced by Safran Helicopter Engines who bought the engine rights from RR. It’s Aneto version develops upto 3000HP. But it is produced by a “French”...

    Fast Attack Crafts are an interesting area of Naval Military Force. Why do we need FACs? Fast attack crafts are used for surveillance, intelligence gathering, patrol, interdiction, and most importantly, engagement with hostile forces. A fast Attack Boat, being a smaller than any other naval...

    Don’t forget to add the price of the pilot in the case of F16. That is if you can put a price on our pilots. However I fully agree with you in terms of using easily expendable weapons. Good examples are: -MAM-L -Artillery rockets like TR230 and 122 turned in to precision strike missiles in the...

    That is one of the prerequisite jobs of KAAN in the years to come. It has to be the distributor of jobs and a conductor/director of various swarms/UCAVs to inflict maximum damage to targets. Turkish war doctrine for the future is based on UCAVs and drones being managed and directed by a plane...
