The plan is that the Sungur will be joining the inventory this year. (I thought ATAS is the acronym for Air To Air Stinger) There is work being carried out to increase Sungur’s effective range and altitude. So there may be a Sungur-ER to come yet...

Initial Oder was for 18-20 tanks. There is an order for a further 40 to 50 tanks for Philippines and Bangladesh as well http://www.military-today.com/tanks/kaplan.htm

Don’t underestimate the progressive application of braking force. Safran’s mobile arresting system can handle jets travelling at 190knots. https://www.safran-group.com/products-services/emergency-mobile-arresting-systems-military-aircraft

That looks more like a preparatory work carried out for an arresting system. I may be wrong but, it looks like they have taken out that area of the aft portion of the runway and covered it with a temporary surface material. Besides, if I remember correctly, the surface of the TCG Anadolu was...

Just look at the picture at @Saithan ’s post. There is a f35 and the caption is about Tumosan arrester. It is probably a US produced arrester engine in the picture.

Since when have we had F35 planes, to arrest them with Tumosan Engine? In below site there is more info on the subject. Apparently they have already delivered 60 units for the use of airforce...

Good question! My guess is that Kale/RR partnership will outsource a lot of parts from TEI. TEI has a lot of work in hand already. They will still carry on developing the indigenous engine. But now without time pressure. They have. TF6000 to develop, militarise TS-1400, serial production of...

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/mmunun-ozgun-motorunda-surec-belirginlesiyor/ Finally we have come to our senses. It looks like TAEC (51% Kale-49%RR Partnership) company will produce the new engine for our TFX

Israel has got it. It is called “rampage” . Artillery rockets are intrinsically cheap weapons. But as soon as you start adding guidance on them, their price start going up. Israel, uses a guidance for stationary land targets. That keeps prices at check to a certain degree. But if you want to hit...

TRG300 missile if fired from air will have a much longer range. If the missile doesn’t have to overcome the gravity’s pull and initial speed gain, it will go much longer. But you are correct , depending on the TRG300’s version, it’s range varies between 90km and 120km if fired from surface.

Although never confirmed officially, Bora 2 missile will be able to hit moving sea targets from a 4-500km range if the previous chatter on the subject is correct. @Cabatli_53 had shared a post in Pakistan Defence forum regarding this issue over a couple of years ago. Same type of seeker head...

TEI did a fantastic job with TS-1400. They need to be applauded for it. But how did they get to produce that engine? TEI has been producing CTS-800 engine for our T-129s under license. They had started producing T-700 engines under license too. They learned the intricacies involved in making a...

Having re-read my post several times, I couldn’t see optimism. In fact what I saw was exactly the opposite. Now, let’s start with TEI; Even Prof Aksit accepted that without the help and machinery GE brought in, TEI would not be in the position that it is today. Then there is Aselsan. Thales...

Well, according to below site (I don’t know how dependable and accurate this site is) the selling price of a MAM-L missile is 25000 US dollars. MAM-C missile is 20000 US dollars. Cost price would be significantly lower. Also when weapons are sold as part of a package their price varies...

I have always been one of the sceptics about the protection systems present on TCG Anadolu. But looking at the amount of self protection there is on this to be flagship, my worries are dissipating a little bit; 5 x Aselsan 25mm STOP, 2 x Phalanx 20mm CIWS, 1 x RAM (may be 2 ; at least that is...

Your first option is what SSB president has told everyone anyway. He even insinuated that the supply/production/purchase of F110s needed for the first production run have been confirmed. For your second option, one has to remember that US pulled out of f136 project altogether. RR may not even...

I agree that if we can provide TF-6000 in time , it is the correct choice. No doubt about that. However, I did put 2 “IF”s in my post; “If” we decide to go for it and “If” BAE Systems becomes a production partner in TFX. If that happens then there is a possibility to produce this engine in...

We were talking about prospective MIUS engines!!!
