Let us learn what Dual Pulse and Dual Thrust are first: Dual Pulse : Engine uses half of fuel at launch and until it reaches coasting speed. Then at terminal phase it uses second part of fuel to give itself more kinetic energy so as to not give any chance for target to evade. Dual Thrust : Fuel...

@Seoraksan probably thinks 300 BAE Systems engineers and 5000+ TAI engineers and Akaer design bureau don’t know much about airframe design and engine thrust levels. Also may be he thinks they dont know what they are talking about, when the three US educated aircraft engine and aerospace...

First of all one has to define supercruise. Supercruise for a jet fighter is being able to travel at over the speed of sound for a sustained amount of time without using afterburners. But US defines it as minimum at 1.5 times the speed of sound irrespective of altitude. In tests f22 has done...

I agree with your belief. Although it is easier to design a liquid fuelled ramjet, we probably designed this missile to have a liquid fuel ramjet engine on purpose to achieve better control of fuel flow and achieve longer range at cruise speeds. When a ramjet like Meteor with solid fuel uses...

Beauty of GaN T/R modules is the fact that they are more efficient. They don’t need to have large power supplies. Also remember that Aesa radar technology is ever evolving and becoming cheaper and more compact. US‘s Raytheon has already developed an Aesa radar with GaN modules that is as...

It is getting a bit repetitive and boring to hear “ ours has superior capabilities compared to it’s counterparts” statements for every new piece of equipment we make. Let’s be more humble and let the equipment speak for itself, like the TB2 has. Also like now, both Anka and Aksungur finding new...

Normally a GaN based T/R (transmit/receive) module is a lot more effcient than a GaAs based T/R module. Also GaN based transistors can generate 5 to 8 times more power...

Just to add to this: The Italian Aesa Radar Hurjet will have will be the first air platform that TuAF will have with an Aesa radar. It will be good and informative to use it on a plane. Also it has to be remembered that since Hurjet is predominantly a trainer aircraft, the electronic systems on...

There is so much talk and statements made by officials that the TB3 and/or KE will be taking off and landing on TCG Anadolu. Never mind these two totally different drones, there is also talk about Hurjet landing on this LHD as well.. If we look at the realities of TCG Anadolu; 1. We paid a...

First of all. Akinci’s Aesa radar and the F16 Aesa radar are totally different in size. Akinci uses a smaller diameter Aesa radar. Even I. Demir mentioned this during one of his interviews. That means the number of T/R modules on the Akinci Aesa are a lot less than F16’s. F16 will probably have...

Yes, the best time is when they just leave port or on the way to battle as they are altogether within a square km. Otherwise in battle formation they spread out, anything from 30 to 50 km apart. Some units even a 100 to 200 km away. In that case, out of a force of 7-8000 personnel, well over...

Correct. 12 AI-35 engines were supposed to be purchased for initial prototype quantities. https://www.c4defence.com/en/gezgin-missile/

A wow is a wow. Great work @Fuzuli NL . I knew we had a lot of stuff regarding unmanned equipment. But to see it all under one roof and being sooo many of them. Well it is a WOW! I know it is a very long post. But if it were a short one it wouldn’t have the same impact. If you feel it is...

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/cakir-fuzesinin-motoru-ktj-1750nin-test-goruntuleri/ KTJ1750 test video clearly shows above 50000RPM speed. Thanks to it’s small diameter the Engine turbine can achieve these high rotational speeds. They plan to deliver the first prototype to Roketsan next week...

Please stay on topic and stop name calling. Not everyone has to believe in everyone else’s point of view. If you don’t agree with someone else’s view, you can respond and convey your own views as long as you stay within forum rules. Because someone is being abusive doesn’t give you the right...

F135 in it’s latest guise is a 43000lbf thrust engine that creates so much heat that if the plane flies supersonic without afterburners with sustained speed for 30minutes or so, it could melt. Same is the case for using afterburners. Sustained usage of either is not advised. This is an engine...

The only truly 5th generation fighter jet engine in operation is the F119. The rest are close approximations. From that perspective he is correct. If Kale/RR are really getting ready to develop a true 5th generation engine for us that will be some achievement.

They are most useful in demolishing and erasing completely an entire carrier group with a single strike without much collateral damage as long as they are targeted away from ports. Therefore if your adversaries know that you have them, they will think twice before coming close to the vicinity...

https://www.defenceturk.net/ktj1750-motoru-ilk-testini-basariyla-gerceklestirdi With all subsystems intact the KTJ1750 has successfully completed it’s first extensive test. KTJ1750 will power the CAKIR (MRAShM) missile. As well as targeting ships it will also be capable of hitting land targets...

During the interview Mr Demir mentioned two very important points in between the lines: 1. Capabilities of the missiles are also being improved as well as sub systems (probably regarding seeker heads for moving targets, manoeuvrability and accuracy plus launch systems). 2. Speed of newer...
