BMC was given the work to modernize leo2a4 tanks. Of the approximately 350 tanks in inventory, first phase consists of modernising 85 tanks. It is being done albeit a little quietly. First batch will contain 40 tanks. https://www.raillynews.com/2020/05/bmc-to-modernize-84-leopard-2a4-tanks/...

Kana/Khan missile is the export version. Limited to 500kg max explosives and 300km range. Bora is the domestic version. Actual details are not ”really” known. But according to published specs , it has a range of 280km and explosive weight of 480kg. Funnily this is the exact spec for the Khan...

They improved the Anka engine and wing configuration . Anka now can have 350kg payload.

A little bit. I am expanding on Mr Cabatli’s message. What I am saying is with 4 or 5 individual units performing some of the tasks of a frigate , even if 1 Ulaq is shot, there will always be another one to take it’s place. Hence keeping the team intact. Yet if a frigate is shot. It is out of...

Expanding on Mr Cabatli’s message; If you have say 4 basic models of Ulaq that constitutes a full fledged frigate‘s job description. Then you can have multiples of these ; and if one single unit is shot there is always another one of the same to take it’s place. So your “sigma” set up stays intact.

I know Yonca-Onuk can reach 76.4 knots. If Ares could do 50-60 knots as well that would be something in the Aegean.

Please go back to page 2 to my shared message. Same information is there with the attachments in English.

Can Greeks afford to buy these? Remember they are not just 85 million dollars each. They come with so many ancillaries that the price per aircraft goes beyond 120million+ . Also upkeep of these planes must be nearly double If not more of the f16’s. They need special hangars etc. The list goes...

Umtas and Cirit are good for small crafts up to 3-400 tons displacement. Cirit is good for light armoured ; but the Umtas is capable of going through any ship’s hull. But they will not sink a corvette or a 500ton fast attack craft . They may disable a FAC with a lucky shot. But that is all...

How about Renault?? ok some models are made in Turkey. But French company is taking it’s share of the profits. This whole move is directed towards the electorate. Empty actions. If you want to get your voice heard, then you put the state’s and Turkish government’s weight behind it. Otherwlse...

Bravejanissary, Sorry for late response. As I am new to forum Iam reading through the shared messages; that information you were given is totally wrong and has no substance. This is a 210kg missile. All “TRG“ series missiles have ballistic trajectories. It goes up to around 30km under it’s...

Yes. This is I-class. Just look at the front bulkward (parapet). There is a “notch“ there on this ship. None of the milgem corvettes have this notch. But the I-class!

First batch of TFX will be a 4+ gen aircraft with a Low RCS. In fact it will be a souped up f15 with a fairly low RCS.

Cypro, that is exactly what I am saying! As a flir Milsar is a different animal! Operates even above clouds and in bad weather.

Guest12, I am afraid it is not. Anka-s is a “Big” bird. Just compare the sizes of TB2 and AnkaS; TB2 has a wingspan of 12 m with a length of 6.5 m And a take off weight of 650kg, Anka-s has a wing span of 17.3 m with a length of 8 m and a take off weight of 1600kg. TB3 should not detract too...

TB3 should hava a more powerful engine for more load and little more wing area to make it possible for it to go above 30000ft at full load. It should also incorporate Meteksan’s “MilsarUavSar/Gmti Radar” . With it’s 27 km range this radar can see everything on the ground; day and night ...

I can see unexploded mam missiles with their seekers intact as well. That is bad! But definitely not shot down! Most likely a malfunction. Why don’t they incorporate a self destruction option on these?

That I would also like to know. Tandem explosives are really for penetrating ERA covered tanks.But as it was developed with Israeli “Lahat” in mind, it should be of similar value - ~800mm. that is not enough for leo2a6. But as these missiles have top penetration mode; they should still be able...

An all new special TB3 has to be built. Since neither Anka, nor Aksungur , nor Akinci can be stationed on this ship the only UAV that will be suitable is one like a TB2 with a more powerful engine and more robust build that would carry heavier loads (anti ship missiles) and have a bit more wing...

TCG Anadolu, if built without the ski jump would have been much more expensive due to extra design work necessary to remove it from the current design. Besides it was always going to be an advantage to have the capability. This vessel has a fairly long runway. ~200+ metres. It can not hold more...
