So that Turkiye can export without recourse, to third parties the products produced under the licence agreement or use technology exported to Turkiye from UK. That is a free ticket to transfer all technology related to TFX, be it software, design features of KAAN, or its propulsion systems and...

You would spend as much time and effort and money, if not more , than if you were trying to upscale the locally produced T700 TEI engine. That TF6K is a big diameter engine. You need to scale it down. Get rid of the bypass system. In essence you would be producing a totally new engine. You might...

Why don’t you read the whole post in its entirety and understand the message being tried to be conveyed; in stead of picking a single statement. 1. In 2018 415 piece order was given for SOM. We don’t know if further orders were given or not. These are state secrets in essence. They will not...

Exactly! The TF6000 engine will turn in to a turbo shaft engine of 5000-7000HP power level monster. That sort of power is good for tilt rotor used in Osprey like planes. That is an overkill for Atak2. The 3000 HP power level turbo shaft we need, can best be achieved if TEI is asked to...

That Engine is 2200+ HP class engine. It is too big for Gokbey. Gokbey either uses a pair of Honeywell LHtec 800 or TS1400. Motor Sich engine will be an over kill and wouldn’t fit in to Gokbey anyway. Gokbey’s engine compartment is designed to accommodate either TS1400 or LHtec.

How do you know how many tactical ballistic missiles we have? Yildirim were in stock in hundreds for many years before it came out that we had them. Bora missiles were purchased in fairly good quantities. In 2018 Roketsan received 415 units of SOM orders. Also in 2018 , Roketsan had already...

Why do you think we have been building missiles like Tayfun and CENK? With our current technical expertise to fit two way data link and/or a capable seeker head on these missiles to render them usable as precision guided against moving sea targets should be well within our grasp. A missile with...

This is Levent point defence system. It has a Sungur missile and a bigger longer range Levent missile that Roketsan was developing. Quote: Roketsan envisaging to use it from on board UAVs, as well as for naval purposes. Depending on the type of target and on the intercept range, the 8 km...

You are correct about interchangeability of jet fighter engines. It is not an easy task by all means. But if the shoe fits, it is not impossible either. The engine compartment of KAAN is wide enough to accommodate the WS15’s diameter. But WS15 is more than 40cm longer than F110. Then again we...

Great news! We now have a FLIR (Forward looking Infra Red) system to fit in to our helicopters and UAVs that will obviate the need to import these without having to worry about their like for like performance levels. Of course being a FLIR it needs to operate in comparatively clear weather...

Modern Turkey’s foundation was finally formed in to shape on 29th of October 1923, as it clearly stated that the Turkish State that rose from the ashes of an Empire is now a Republic. But the true foundation of the Turkish state was set in 1920 on 23rd of April when the National Assembly...

Your pessimism does have valid points. But : 1. It is wrong to compare us with a country who was and is living off the inheritance of Soviets, devoid of new blood to improve. 2. It is also wrong to compare Turkiye with any other country as the logistic conditions would not be the same. 3. And...

Almost there ; but not quite . Secularism is the principle of seeking to conduct human affairs based on naturalistic considerations, uninvolved with religion hence segregating matters of religion from matters of state. Secularism safeguards freedom of religion or belief and ensures that the...

I hate initialism. 😩 Anti Ship Ballistic Missile ? There was talk about Bora having a version that would have a 4 to 500 km range and be able to hit moving sea targets. Nothing actually clarified with respect to Tayfun having the capability to hit a moving sea target. It just needs the right...

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/roketsandan-balistik-fuze-mujdesi-yeni-tayfunlar-geliyor/ As Tayfun missile production efforts and deliveries are being realised, the improvements being made on the missile is resulting in various versions of it being developed and to be added to the armed forces...

No bro! We bought a number of them for 95000 dollars each from the US. Liked them. Ordered a good quantity for our needs. US declined to sell. Then we produced our own indigenous HGK version costing us then around 27000 dollars. Then US approached us and told us we could buy as many as we want...

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/abdden-itkili-jdam-muhimmati-hamlesi/ US is contemplating introducing the JDAM munitions with rocket assistance. This will make the relatively cheap JDAMs to be used from Stand Off distances. Whereas a cruise missile like our SOM costs in excess of a million...

There is nothing illegal about giving another country some of your nuclear arsenal. US allowed Turkey to have a number of nuclear weapons. They were stationed on Turkish soil and were under joint control. (There should still be some on Turkish soil) Also a country in possession of nuclear...

Wow! This is new and refreshing. Any info of engine, and company that produced it? Congratulations bro!

Quote: The F-16's official name is "Fighting Falcon", but "Viper" is commonly used by its pilots and crews, due to a perceived resemblance to a viper snake as well as the Colonial Viper starfighter on Battlestar Galactica which aired at the time the F-16 entered service. Unquote. Viper is the...
