The idea of adding an afterburner to be supersonic is good. But ; 1.is it really what this plane needs? 2. How viable is it for a flying wing to go supersonic? 3. Why is it that no flying wing ever built, is supersonic? If this is a deep strike bomber akin to B2 but smaller, then high subsonic...

These are going to be great additions to our naval force. But… According to this site https://www.defenceturk.net/asfatin-deniz-projeleri-acik-deniz-karakol-gemisi-ve-pn-milgem the first ship was supposed to be launched July 2023 and delivered to the Navy in June 2024. It looks like there is...

TB3 should have a much slower approach speed than TB2. Baykar must have designed TB3 very much like you have explained; a very slow landing aircraft reminiscent of WW2 carrier operated planes. TB3 will be a very important part of the LHD’s self defence as well as projecting force well away from...

Many jets can be made to take off from TCG-Anadolu. Trick is to land them. A plane like KE , for example, with a weight of 6000kg MTOW, will find it more than challenging to safely land on this ship without external assistance. Even with assistance, the large aft lift of TCG-Anadolu will be...

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/akinci-iha-230-fuzesi-ile-140-kilometreden-vurdu/ Now, this is what I call using the right weapon from the right platform. A supersonic ground attack missile fired from Akinci with a range of over 140km is going to be a force multiplier for this drone. When fired...

I think you need to re investigate this issue in detail again. Atomic Hydrogen is very reactive. But… Molecular Hydrogen, H2 is very stable especially at room temperature. To obtain atomic hydrogen you need to pass molecular hydrogen through temperatures in excess of 2500K Stored hydrogen is...

PD-222ST turbo diesel engine has been specifically developed for high take off power to assist TB-3 like drones to take off at short distances. It has less power output at 30000ft than PD-170 however. As you rightly point out it is ideal for naval use...

When I first saw this picture I thought; Wow they have done their homework right; As well as two things that were very noticeable: 1. Aerodynamic body and a possible high lift potential 2. Really robust looking, improved landing gears. There should be no problem with take off from a ski lift...

Dear members please stop attacking other members just because their views do not conform to yours. If you do not agree with a post put your views politely and without mocking your fellow member. Or just ignore instead of being confrontational. Any more of this kind of behaviour will attract...

It is not understandable what they have written here. It doesn’t make sense. GaN modules were already supposed to be produced for Murad radar. In fact early this year this radar was supposed to be subjected to tests. Now they are stating that it will be 2024 before GaN modules are used on Murad...

For those of you who wish to discuss name issues for TFX , there is a dedicated thread. https://defencehub.live/threads/tfx-name-suggestion-dıscussions.16242/page-7 please carry on there as all such posts have been moved to above address

Dear members, keep the language of the forum civil and refrain from being confrontational. Criticism is part of healthy discussions as long as it is done in a civil and acceptably polite language. Convey your views in a manner that is not rude and confrontational and also make sure that it does...

In a way yes. As parts become bigger their specifications become more sensitive. Forces acted on those parts are generally larger and the parts will have to be manufactured accordingly.

If you listen to Dr Aksit’s interview carefully he mentions that the thrust is directly related to diameter of the engine. Hence an increase of around 15cm in diameter, according to Dr Aksit, will achieve a thrust level of 35000lbf. This is in a way, analogous to increasing a 1500cc 100HP car...

Prof Aksit in this interview states that they will start the ignition on TF6000 engine within the first months of 2023. He also mentions that it would take around 8-10 years to develop an engine like TF6000. He states that since they have been working on the TF6000 for 2 years, it should take...

Rectangular nozzles are better suited to stealth planes due to their better radar wave deflection parameters. However rectangular nozzles can only have TVC in in one axis. So a plane like F35B has to have circular nozzle. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2214785322054049

Anka-3 , although not clearly defined in detail by TAI, by all intents and purposes seems to be an air to ground attack deep strike stealthy bomber drone. It has a top air intake akin to B21 type stealth bombers. Currently it is most likely using an engine of Ukrainian origin. When TF6000 is...

Congratulations to all staff that were involved in achieving this feat of engineering in such a short time and making us all proud and happy bunnies. We are all looking forward to seeing this bird in the air. That is the next big and most defining hurdle we have in hand now. To appreciate what...
