Missiles do not look very accurate, nor do they show precision towards a target. It can be that the development is still ongoing but like this it does not look very useful yet.

It's very good for Bayraktar. Such advertisement you cannot even achieve if you pay for it

It's possible but unlikely, radar gives so much more effectiveness. You can also use BVR missiles and get the target info from AWACS, but again there are many strings and limitations attached. The extra power of 2x750hp is likely needed for powering the radar and additional systems like...

Those active Akinci drones in Batman are the Akinci A model. These ones do not have AESA radar, so A2A missiles are very unlikely (not impossible) The Akinci B (2x750hp engine) is supposed to get the AESA integrated, tests of Akinci B are continuing and radar integration will probably commenced...

Wow you guys must have strong eyes, I watched the vid several times and cannot recognize A2A missiles (not saying there are none, I can't see them without doubt)

You can copy the shape, but if the software is not adequate and the features like the flight height, stealthiness than you will only be good for taking pictures

We should sanction the US on drones The irony would make my day!

I differ of opinion It is not about Otokar or FNSS taking the project or that I have a preference between any of our companies but it is about professionalism. If either Otokar or FNSS had taken the project they would have made sure the engine deliveries with a contract (or let MTU pay...

It's an absolute disgrace how the tank project is handled. Not only Altay but also Leopard 2A4 upgrade. There are also conflicting news about BMC tank engine development, I have no hard confirmation but also there things do not go as supposed to be. That said I do not think that tanks are less...

And what are Ukrainians gonna do with those flir camera's? It's only worth something if it is placed on a drone

Therefore I do not expect it entirely to be F136 but to be based (derivative) of F136

If you watch SSB closely they do not talk about "milli" engine but they talk about "yerli" engine. Rolls Royce has only the F136 engine that is of same diameter as the F110 engine, the EJ200 is a much smaller diameter engine. So it is simple mathematics, TFx is designed to house F110 engine...

I suspect that Rolls Royce will use the F136 engine as base for the TFx engine. For the F35 project two engines were developed: - F135 by Pratt & Whitney - F136 by Rolls Royce / GE With Defence budget cuts of the US congress the F135 was chosen to be the sole engine for the F35 program, but...

EJ-200 and GE F110 are of different class. You cannot say if not F110 we will use EJ-200 in TFx, they have complete different sizes and diameters EJ200 could be an alternative to the F404 used in Hurjet

I don't expect that Russia will lose the war. I think however that Russia made an exceptional stupid move, probably they expected that the Ukraine gov. would flee and the army surrender. Russians have send in huge convoys of reserve forces with conscript soldiers who do not have combat...

Exactly, that's where drones are for. They are expendable

I am still asking myself is this the Russian army? Looks like proxy forces with outdated Russian stuff.

And act like the British? Hell no!

I see, thanx Anyway it would be a nice project (even if it is to piss of the EU countries by putting a RPAS alternative on the market)

TAI - Antonov HALE?
