    TR F-16 Özgür | Hürkuş - Fighter Trainer Aircraft Projects

    Turkey has already integrated a series of Turkish built ammunition and equipment on Azerbaijani Mig29 aircrafts. So it is possible to use locally produced bombs and targeting pods or equipment on Russian planes. If source codes are accessed , then more is possible!

    Prof Mahmut Aksit has stated that taking the TS1400 core and changing the compressor and turbine stages to an axial flow turbofan will create an engine that would give 8-9000lbf thrust. If he says it can be done, then I believe that somehow it is possible to create a turbofan from this radial...

    Hurkus uses a 1500HP class turboprop engine. A Diesel engine with 170HP will not be suitable!

    I guess you meant: 😀 Thank goodness! Finally! This Hurkus project took a long time! I hope the TFX project is managed better! My thought exactly too!

    If this is the case then it is outrageously expensive! Even with an Altay turret!

    Hydraulic actually can handle more weight and stress for specific workloads than electric and more efficient in most cases. All cranes and Catterpillar equipment are hydraulic driven. Electric is quieter. And needs a good power source. But cleaner. Hydraulic can be messy...

    It doesn’t say “the armour will be enhanced” or ”the armour will be renewed”. It says the tank will be renewed/modernised. The savunmasanayist news on the matter contains the addition of all these packages. At least that is my understanding...

    Sorry but I can’t quite understand what you are trying to say! If you are saying that the ESSM’s range is limited to 35-40 km , because the ship’s or its own sensor’s range is also limited to 35-40 km, then can you explain why they give a range of 50km for this missile? This was discussed here...

    There are, at the moment , 68 operational t38’s as far as I know. (Give or take a couple) . So we need at least around 70 Hurjet’s to replace these. Then there is light attack aircraft quantities that are needed. As Turkish squadrons consist of 20 aircrafts , and let us say at least 3 or 4...

    Apparently you can in MK41 VLS system. So if they can, so should we with our MDAS system. quote: The resulting ESSM-ER would be a perfect weapon for frigates, both those of our allies and the forthcoming FFG(X) class. Even with the limited number VLS cells on these platforms, the ESSM-ER can be...

    G40 is our home made ESSM. ESSM missile, on paper is an approximately 50km range missile with an operating altitude of maximum 8km. But in reality this missile claimed to have a range of nearly 80km. There is also an ESSM-ER missile with a booster stage, which is claimed to have a range of...

    ESSM has a 4+ mach speed. I would guess that these too are 4+ Mach missiles. Due to dual pulse motor this may be a bit different and vary during flight. But Aster 30 are 4.5 Mach , Aster15 are 3.5 Mach missiles. Gokdogan missile which is similar to aim120 has a speed of 4 Mach. If these missiles...
