    Fighter stealth is optimized for higher frequencies(X,Ka,Ku etc). Stealth aircraft can be detected at a higher range by utilizing lower frequency bands like L or S. Especially the S band is a hot topic because with the technological improvements now resolution in S-band is good enough to track...

    I-Derby has an RF seeker and dual pulse rocket engine. If Tubitak adds those Bozdoğan can achieve 100km. IMHO logical approach is to make a dual-pulse version of both Gökdoğan and Bozdoğan and switch to a hybrid seeker. Gökdoğan can use extra resistance against jamming with added IIR and...

    A little more about MURAD MURAD 1000+ GaN T/R GaN T/R Module PAE(Power Added Efficiency) : Rumors start from %37 and reach as high as %54 20W nominal 30W peak output power per module (20kW power-30kW peak power for radar plus several kW for accessories like LRUs etc.) Multilayer LTCC packaging...

    Maybe I should quote my old messages from now on. Most of the range gains are achieved with data-link+advanced engagement and autopilot algorithms, especially for the Bozdoğan.

    LOL you made a noob mistake. This Stormbreaker is not Israel's Bluespear or equivalent of our Kuzgun. It is similar to Aselsan SDB. It is not a missile. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GBU-53/B_StormBreaker Atmaca is 500k. It is known for a long time and I also mentioned the cost of the Atmaca...

    News Istanbul terror attack

    I told you. She got training from YPG/US and is used by PKK. She is not a "proper" PKK terrorist. Iran can't recruit anyone from YPG or PKK without an agreement. If there is Iranian involvement it has to with the OK of PKK.

    I don't know but I guess the last two stars might be related to BURFIS.

    I don't think stormbreaker price is that low. The price of our missiles might be though. Even then we won't buy that much. Missiles and platforms are planned together. The Navy will buy Atmaca for their new ships, and ground-based batteries. Those will be purchased in batches in the following...

    News Istanbul terror attack

    This interview was also given after considerable progress is made in ZAP Mountains. PKK employs 2 strategies when they lose ground. 1) PKK tries to carry the fighting inside Turkiye and target civilians. 2) PKK tries to pressure Turkiye via world public opinion (chemical attack shenanigans are...

    News Istanbul terror attack

    This is exactly the PKK style though it is executed poorly due to the terrorist being trained in Syria with bad trainers/experts terrorists of YPG/SDF, rather than proper PKK terrorists. This is a revenge OP. It is done because PKK lost the historical Zap terror camps/mountain area where PKK has...

    I'm talking about big cruise missiles like SOM, and ATMACA variants. Basically KTJ-3200 and bigger engines. The number will never rise to 500-600 even if we take small cruise missiles into consideration unless we sell those missiles to more than a dozen countries like the TB2. We simply don't...

    Next year, triple-digit engines will be delivered for cruise missile production. My educated guesstimate is 150.

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    F-110 is neither stealth(important) nor has the supercruise(not a deal breaker) ability. It doesn't have the required thermal management or RCS reduction of an engine required for the 5th generation. Without an engine that satisfies the thermal and RCS needs of the 5th generation, you can't...

    The most up-to-date fighter AESA radar development roadmap. Unfortunately, we can't read it. The first star must be Akıncı and the second one is F-16. The third star might be Kızılelma.

    True. Air cooling maxes at 2.3 kW per square meter. Liquid cooling is different though. Special cooling system designed by Aselsan for GaN MMICs. It is behind the paywall you can read the abstract. https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9190297

    I don't think a bigger AESA can be fit in that nose? RBE2 has 838 GaAs T/R modules. The best that can be done is probably to switch to a similarly sized GaN AESA. BTW neither RBE2 nor APG-83 SABR have necessary capabilities to fully take advantage of Meteor missile.
