We all know the difficulties and downsides of liquid fuelled missiles. Shelf-life, preparation before launching, stocking of missile are not as easily tackled as solid fuelled missiles. Brahmos on the other hand is a liquid fuelled Ramjet engined missile with a solid fuelled discardable booster...

In fact when asked about our ambitions and work carried out for Ramjet engines, he said the ambition and next stage now is not Ramjet but Scramjet!

https://www.internethaber.com/hulusi-akardan-afganistan-aciklamasi-heyetle-ne-gorustu-asker-gidecek-mi-2192181h.htm Hulusi Akar confirms ramjet powered a2a missile. And says, he can’t wait to see it in the inventory. OK the picture is of meteor! Probably couldn’t find a picture of Gokhan...

Super rapid is the one that we should go for, on our I-class ships. With Aselsan fire control system specially developed for them it is the perfect match. Vulcano style indigenous ammunition is also something to look in to. This ammunition gives pin point accuracy with 40km range. 127mm version...

Not just JDAM, but JSOW was also produced under the name of KGK. Today Turkish airforce uses HGK and KGK in place of the JDAM and JSOW. we did buy a small quantity of these so that our planes are aware of them. So that we can introduce our HGK and KGK as JDAM and JSOW to our planes’ computers.

DEFENCE TURKEY INFOGRAPHIC ATMACA FLIGHT PATTERN FROM LAUNCH TO IMPACT

Am I understanding correctly? Taking your printer analogy as an example; You need certain drivers (software) to plug your printer to the computer. Those drivers are written with software that has info of your printer embedded in it’s core. So if you are going to use an ESSM on MDAS, you will...

When you are in a “consortium” like this and are active in the development of the missile with a view to producing certain parts, you have access to most of the tech involved in the missile. That gives you a big head start. G40 is the fine example of this!

Good question! One logic could be: As we are producing our own missiles as well; Then it is only fair to think that anybody buying our MDAS should buy our missiles. Also any body buying our missiles should use our MDAS. During integration of foreign equipment or ammo to your indigenous...

Multiple Atmaca missiles can be fired on a target with multiple predetermined flight plans to saturate target ship’s defence. Some with top attack, some with different flight paths, some sea skimming all the way. If it is possible to sink a ship worth 3-400 million dollars, with 10-12 of these...

ESSM block-1 alternative is probably G40. Block 2 is actually a little more manoeuvrable and does not rely on ship’s radar for homing on to it’s target. Apart from that it is no different from block-1. As we are in the ESSM consortium, we did extensive work on the development of both bocks. So...

Actually, no foreign made missiles will be suitable for MDAS. Only home made missiles will be usable. Our own missiles too, will not be suitable on MK41 VLS systems. That is the way it will be now.

He has also mentioned that AKYA torpedo deliveries to our subs will be on the way before the end of the year. That is a big force multiplier in it’s own right. No Anti-Ship-Missile is a replacement for a ship killer full size torpedo. An Akya exploding 1-1.5 m below the hull of any ship up to...

There is no way Atmaca can do more than 0.9 Mach speed. But as you right fully stated there must be some mistake in the figures uttered by the reporter and the time of ”actual” flight. There are few important points that are missing : 1. What is the actual distance of the target? 2. Was TCG...

If Saki is TCG-Işın (I don’t know what Saki is, apart from a nice Japanese drink) , as @era_shield has stated, ULAQ needs to be closer than 8km, provided it has an EO mast height of ~5metres to be able to take pictures as we are seeing here. (a simple formula for horizon distance = 3.57*√h)...

The engines Atmaca and SOM use, can not go faster than high subsonic. For a missile the size of SOM, dropped from a fast moving plane, they can do 0.95 Mach at most. But for a missile the size of Atmaca and sea skimming, the maximum speed it can manage is about 0.85-0.9 Mach.

Preparing ground work for “economic rent”. Economic rent is an amount of money earned that exceeds that which is economically or socially necessary. Market inefficiencies or information asymmetries are usually responsible for creating economic rent. Generally, economic rent is considered...

These are computer generated pictures and videos. So I wouldn’t read in to them too much. I hope they have put real life images of some of the projects they are undertaking. But, pardon me if I appear to be a pessimist. I hope you guys are correct in treating them as real life projects. Then...

Actually they found that they won’t have any ships until 2030 apart from 3 Zumwalt destroyers , to put these guns on. Also in order to hit anything they need to be 100miles from the target. China’s long range missiles would not allow them to be that close. Although Zumwalts are “Stealthy” , it...
