    There are 52 tranche-1 planes UK has got . They are all to be gradually retired. All of them can be upgraded to Tranche 2/3 configuration at a cost. Whether Germany has any say on the sale of planes, now owned by RAF is a matter of debate. It has been mentioned that there is a clause in the...

    For quick introduction, couple of squadrons of the Tranche-1 upgraded to Tranche-2 to partial 3 set up would actually be the way to go. These planes in majority have already been configured for air to ground missions for the RAF any way. But to make it simpler to see, below is a list of Typhoon...

    When it comes to national matters, money is a secondary factor of consideration. This is a litmus test for the strained diplomatic relations between Turkey and Germany, to see where Germany’s loyalties lie in NATO with respect to Turkey. It will be used accordingly in the days to come. So this...

    Wankel/Rotary engines are theoretically how all combustion engines should be designed as. One single motion direction. No sudden repetitive jolts and kicks which are part of a cylinder/piston engine. If you listen to the Mazda rotary engine it sounds like an electric engine. But in real life so...

    Noted! But in the coming years, if we want to sell submarines to other parties, we need to manufacture them somewhere. Especially if a partnership is realised with the Spanish. We know that STM carried out Pakistani submarine modernisation programme. Again, STM, Aselsan, HAVELSAN and ASFAT...

    Well! If you check it out, the price of each S80 is near 1 billion Euros. That means 4billion Euros for four S80s. (It was estimated that in 2012 the cost of 4 subs to be around 2.2 billion Euros) Our 6 Reis class ships’ total cost, at the time of contract, was to be 2.06 billion Euros. So there...

    You need to search a bit before making bold statements like that. Rolls Royce XG40 engine is the starting point of the EJ200 engine. Yes, It was developed by the quad country consortium and the MTU Aero was allowed to produce the engine. But in its core the engine has all the hallmarks of a...

    Dear members, It has come to notice that the number of Initialisms that are used in the forum are somehow a sore point for some “aged” , young and amateur members. Therefore we are suggesting that : We advise all members that, it is better to put the expanded version of the initialisms, on...

    Having read the whole document, my understanding is such that, it includes every technology related to KAAN, including propulsion systems. But the document actually is related to UK companies. It tells UK companies they are free to transfer and release all related technology with respect to...

    So that Turkiye can export without recourse, to third parties the products produced under the licence agreement or use technology exported to Turkiye from UK.

    You would spend as much time and effort and money, if not more , than if you were trying to upscale the locally produced T700 TEI engine. That TF6K is a big diameter engine. You need to scale it down. Get rid of the bypass system. In essence you would be producing a totally new engine. You might...

    Why don’t you read the whole post in its entirety and understand the message being tried to be conveyed; in stead of picking a single statement. 1. In 2018 415 piece order was given for SOM. We don’t know if further orders were given or not. These are state secrets in essence. They will not...

    Exactly! The TF6000 engine will turn in to a turbo shaft engine of 5000-7000HP power level monster. That sort of power is good for tilt rotor used in Osprey like planes. That is an overkill for Atak2. The 3000 HP power level turbo shaft we need, can best be achieved if TEI is asked to...

    That Engine is 2200+ HP class engine. It is too big for Gokbey. Gokbey either uses a pair of Honeywell LHtec 800 or TS1400. Motor Sich engine will be an over kill and wouldn’t fit in to Gokbey anyway. Gokbey’s engine compartment is designed to accommodate either TS1400 or LHtec.

    How do you know how many tactical ballistic missiles we have? Yildirim were in stock in hundreds for many years before it came out that we had them. Bora missiles were purchased in fairly good quantities. In 2018 Roketsan received 415 units of SOM orders. Also in 2018 , Roketsan had already...
