“Fitted For But Not With” idea is the main notion behind these OPVs. 1. As you mention radars; the radar of the Milgem is very costly. Since these ships are going to be more for patrol duties, they don’t need to have costly radars. (A CAFRAD of TF2000 could cost as much as a ship). But should...

Milgem 5 the I-Class first ship is to have both ESSM and Hisar missile system capabilities. But then again the anti ship system is shown as Harpoon 2. Yet we know that all combatant ships were to have Atmaca integrated . Also the RAM system we were led to believe were among those embargoed...

@Altay2071, Think of it this way: 1 x OPV costs 110 million dollar to build 1 x Milgem Corvette costs 260 million dollar to build 1 x I-Class frigate costs 400million to build. You have seen how long it took to build 4 Milgem Corvettes. You’re seeing how long it is taking 4 more I-Class ships to...

I won’t go in to numbers. But ; Yes. We eat too much wheat products in Turkey. We are a nation that eats rice and lentils with bread. (mind you English have Chip-butties . They put fried potatoes in to bread buns and eat it) But Turkey is a large producer of wheat products like pasta and...

If my logic and my memory are not deceiving me; 80 kits will cover the newest of our f16s. Since there is a 30 year limit on the planes for warranty etc, we will have the right to alter or add to them after this period. So…. ~35 Block 30 planes are all over 30 years old. So they can be...

Good question! @Anmdt can put some light on it. If the parts are ready to be put in dry dock for assembly, it needs to be done at the place where they were first cut. According to below site: quote: Within the framework of the project, which began on August 15, 2021, ASFAT General Directorate of...

Interesting where Turkey is. Yet it is not enough for our own use.

I guess too busy exporting them!

What China is doing in Xinjian to the Turkic Uighur minority is abhorable. Xinjian is an autonomous region of China. Yet the Uyghurs do not enjoy any rights of an autonomous region under the heavy handed Chinese oppression. No matter how much our pro-Chinese members will defend China and reject...

The first paragraph, throws a spanner in the works of what Tusas/Aselsan have been doing all this time with respect to “Özgür” modernisation. If this were the case, why were they so verbal and loud about this modernisation? Heck! They even used a plane to modernise it to the right specs. And...

It can be tested on a F16 as well. But it is cheaper to test it on a platform like Akinci to start with, that has much cheaper per hour flight characteristics. Once initial hurdles are passed and the radar is good enough to go on the F16 , then it will be tested on the f16 and integrated.

Although it would be a definitely positive albeit expensive asset for Akinci, I am not really looking forward to Akinci having an AESA radar, apart from it being a test bed for the one to go on our Ozgur f16 planes. What is urgent and vital at the moment is the fact that our f16s need Ozgur...
