BBC today: How much of Ukraine does Russia control? Edit: Same map was used just now by BBC world service.

BBC latest : Quote: Perhaps even more damaging to Russia than shutting it out of Swift is a move to isolate Russia's central bank. Preventing it from using its $630bn international dollar reserves to support the rouble could see its value collapse with dire consequences for the Russian economy...

Source? Edit: Yes correct. 40 to 50+Km ranges given for ESSM is more than what SSB gives for Hisar RF. I misunderstood your above post. Sorry! I thought you were still on block 1 and block 2 issue; Because even Raytheon’s own site gives it as “around 40km” for both blocks...

If it has longer range as you claim, contrary to what the sources I shared give, can you provide sources that back up this claim please? You are correct. the block two version does not need illumination. But the given range is the same as Block 1. Everyone speculate with certain logic that...

It was actually mentioned for the Aksungur, to be able to carry 24 Mam-L ammunition with the help of a quadruple release mechanism that is being developed. So, no. Not 12 hardpoints. Still 6. But each hard point being able to handle four bombs ata time. Once the release mechanism is ready, if...

ESSM block 2 to has the same 25 + mile (around 45-50km) range that block 1 has. The only difference is that ESSM block 2 is much more manoeuvrable and is much less susceptible to electronic interference. This would make it more capable to intercept supersonic missiles too. Block 1 has semi...

Ismail Demir stated that the TCG-Istanbul will be ready to join inventory of TN in 2023. He also said that the Siper missile will be in use in 2023. In view of these two specific statements made by Ismail Demir, you will come to the conclusion that, by the time the ship is in use it will have...

Why should they? They have, on the contrary, tried to hinder our frigate Project by blocking sales of critical equipments. But if you know something we don’t, please share. US has patriot Pac3 that may resemble, to a degree, our Siper in terms of hit to kill capability and active RF seeker...

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/roketsan-midastan-hisar-rf-atisina-hazirlaniyor/ Roketsan is getting ready to fire from indigenous MILDAS a Hisar-RF missile. The final aim is to give the Turkish VLS system a quad packing capability. Edit: Thank you USA! You have given us the momentum to...

Unmanned Underwater Vehicles will also be subject to restrictions of sensor and communication limitations. Operating close to surface, these vehicles will be great. But at depth, with current technology, 30-40 metres is the operational radius. How is a sub to communicate at 300 metre depth with...

Roketsan was a partner for IDAS development, as you have stated. IDAS is now at a usable level. Reis Class subs may be fitted with this system. This is not really an air defence system like land or ship based systems. It is designed to attack low flying planes and helicopters, especially the...

It doesn’t look like it. Anyway, if it were, then this missile wouldn’t be Hisar-O+. It would be Siper.

You can’t get a better hit than that! The missile, from the pictures I presume, did not have an explosive head, But destroyed the target drone by hit to kill. It would be great if a range figure was also released though!

It is not just a tweet I am afraid. Mr Kotil, on 6th January said that the following day the 2 helicopters were being delivered to Philippines. Below news is dated 10th January and from an official “Republic of Philippines“ Philippines News Agency; https://www.pna.gov.ph/articles/1165003 Now...

Air launched harpoon uses semi active radar guidance and is void of a booster. Standard harpoon has an active radar guidance with a transceiver and has a sea skimming trajectory. It looks like two different guidance systems. Can this be the reason for a console?

@Anmdt must have meant Sub-Atmaca. Yes. But if memory serves, all harpoons in current combatants were going to be replaced with Atmaca missiles. To do this control consoles on the ships will be changed as well. So new Atmaca-Specific consoles are to be installed in all surface ships that will...

The delays occurring in LM‘s F16 production line; Are they due to parts not being produced fast enough or is it because they do not have the manpower/production space for F16 orders? If it is the latter TAI production line - even if it is at a slow speed - will still be a better choice. I know...

All the Aegean islands, apart from the so called ”12” islands (in red) and Crete, were lost to Greece post 1830 during and after Greek Independence. Remaining “12” islands, Crete and Thessalia and Ionina were lost in the 1912 Balkan Wars. Crete was given to Greece. But the “12” islands were...
