    TR Altay Main Battle Tank & Related Programs

    Looking at the two pictures below of Altay new armour (first picture), and Leo2 with Altay lookalike turret, one cannot help but think if they are just mock-ups. In the video, they did not rotate the turret once. Also the two turrets are not exactly the same. It is like the one on the Leo2 is...

    TR Altay Main Battle Tank & Related Programs

    I hope these prototypes are updated to the latest specs and fitted with new Akkor active protection then given to the army for them to add to their inventory. We need every single one of them to be battle ready. In fact it would be great if they can be tested in Northern Syria to get them battle...

    Again you are mixing apples with pears. TRG230 is a cheap artillery rocket. It has longer reach than a 155mm shell. And it is very accurate. It is high supersonic. Very fast. TRG230 has a ballistic trajectory. SOM is a different missile altogether. Very expensive and a tactical cruise missile...

    We are not talking about Armenian capabilities. We are talking about a military like Greece or like Turkey. Bombing of logistic centres, refuelling depots, is more productive than just bombing the runways. Besides I don’t understand what you are “come onnn” ing about. Have you read what I have...

    Greece’s request from Germany to stop technical help in producing new Turkish submarines have bee turned down. Germans have said that the whole contract is signed and sealed and can not be tampered with. https://www.savunmasanayist.com/almanya-turkiyenin-denizalti-projesini-durduramayiz/

    Turkish American relationship

    Biden’s new foreign minister, vows to keep Turkey away from Russia and Russian influence. In spite of differences of opinion he says US must keep Turkey in th western flank and must not allow it to slide towards Us’s enemies. To do this negotiation is the key he has added...

    TR UAV/UCAV Programs | Anka - series | Kızılelma | TB - series

    First of all you need to look at the capabilities of the TuAF with respect to web based warfare. So Rafale and V70 modernised f16 have Aesa radars. They can see our planes before our planes see them. But we have “Baris Kartali” (peace eagle) planes way back in mainland that can see all those...

    There is no written confirmation that there will be a family of different TFX planes. It is pure speculation and conjecture at this stage. There is one TFX at the moment that is being developed as a prototype. This prototype and It’s first body part manufacturing should start any time now if it...

    That is how it works. Yes. But in reality; destroying an airbase is not that straight forward. You could bomb the runways to make them unusable. But they are usually quickly repaired. Usually within hours. (US and Allies bombed Syrian base. Next day it was back in business) There are special...

    TR Missile & Smart Munition Programs

    TRI-40 used in Atmaca and SOM costs 100thousand+ dollars. We were paying around 150K for them at one point. TRI-60 variants cost between 52000dollars to 83000dollars. Even the radio controlled model jet engines are in excess of 40000 dollars. So just the engine costs more than a trg230! The...

    Then it will not be Bora! Bora/Khan/Yildirim is 600mm diameter missile family. Even within this family when significant change has occurred the nomenclature has changed. A different diameter missile will be differently named!

    TR Libya Operations & Updates

    Russia does not want Libyan oil and gas to hit European markets. This would drive prices down further. By controlling Libyan oil and gas, Russia can have more control over European oil and gas supplies. Russia already has a certain amount of remote control over Algeria with their “Strategic...

    Your picture of Cavour! Those VLS missile silos look like they have been added afterwards so there is still chance for our TCG Anadolu!

    We need more ships in Bayraktar/Sancaktar class. These can easily carry swarms of ULAQ class drone-boats of different configurations. These ships can also accommodate artillery rockets like the TRG230-300 with which they can hit land positions from almost a stand off distance. They can also...

    Not just the Chinese but Israel is actually using TRG300 equivalent named “Rampage”. They use 4 of these from a f16. https://www.businessinsider.com/israeli-rampage-weapon-reportedly-used-in-syria-for-the-first-time-2019-4?r=US&IR=T

    Turbojet engine would make it subsonic hence more expensive and more susceptible to air defence systems. A booster like the engine of trg230 would be more useful. Just an idea!

    TR Missile & Smart Munition Programs

    As our UAV technology is improving and our UAV fleet is developing to be a force to reckon with, I would like to see cheap but very effective stand off missiles being used from UAV’s like Aksungur and Akinci to attack multi purpose targets. Our 210kg TRLG230 could be a great addition to serve...

    Not unless they make it longer and/or wider. That size missile’s maximum range is about 550-600km if you push it! Just check a the Chinese(B611-BP12A) and Russian(Iskander) derivatives of the same ilk.

    All correct! Until you have a ship like HMS-QE2! 280m long 41m wide 11m draft 65000 tons ski lift take-off assistance It is actually long enough to allow conventional takeoff and landing. it is wide enough to have two runways. But no Catapults and no Arresting wires. Hence only useful for STOVL...
