    It is an important point. These ships would be ideal targets for enemy long range anti ship missiles. It is a well known fact to disable and destroy logistical lines of your enemy. So they will be among the first targets to be aimed at . They would need coastal AD cover as well as limited point...

    In unmanned format, it will have an operational radius of around 5km. But this can be augmented as the project becomes a reality, such as by utilising higher positioned relay stations. Most important outcome of this project will be; It will give us more confidence in hybridisation of our T-155...

    Finally MKE has started serial production of the modernisation project of the 50 M113 ZMAs. The project involves making the M113 vehicles more up to date by introducing a hybrid drivetrain. This project will be a good guideline as to how well and how cheaply we can turn these outdated...

    Turkey may have MRBM production capability. But not MRBMs. The latest space rocket launches prove that Turkey has the capability to manufacture them if needed. But let it be known that with all the Russian, US and Israeli satellites watching, there is no way Turkey could have tested a MRBM...

    We call it Hindi. Because we know it originated from India. But as the story goes : When the British sailors brought the first examples of it to The States from Algiers, they introduced it as “Turkey Fowl“. So the name stuck. (If the story is correct)

    I fully agree with this. Subsonic and Supersonic UCAVs will actually cause more of a stir in the air warfare than TB2 did. It will define the future of air combat and all this will be done more economically without endangering the lives of your pilots. Subsonic UCAVs will be more stealthy and...

    I think you got it wrong. Atak-129 is around 40-45 million dollars a piece. Pakistan was going to pay over 1.5 billion dollars for 30 of them. Apache costs over 100 million a piece to buy. Morocco is to pay 4.25 billion for 36 Apache helicopters. That includes all ancillaries and training etc...

    Try to persuade Mr Cavusoglu. Not us! I am all with you on what you are saying as a matter of principle. But also remember that Russians already have a number of semi damaged/destroyed TB2s in hand. They have managed to stop TB2 operations in Karabakh for about an hour. Then it was back to...

    Thinking out loudly; If the Hisar range is really for the Army and the Hisar-O RF is the only one Navy is interested in, then it is logical to increase the range of Hisar-O+ with a booster for the army. Having done that and finding what you can achieve, they may have gone on to Siper Naval! The...

    It is a fact that as soon as you add or change anything on these missiles, you are altering the missile’s aerodynamic structure. So if by adding RF seeker head and a booster, they altered these so much that even the fin design had to be redone. I can add as a conjecture; Whilst at it they may...

    I-Class‘s first ship will probably use Roketsan‘s MILDAS VLS and Siper. This will be a hot launch system. EDAS, on the other hand, is a Tubitak-Sage cold launch system, and can be ready before TCG-Istanbul is operational. But as per @Anmdt ’s related posts, it will be utilised on the Ada-Class...

    Last time a similar question was directed at Tubitak-Sage MD , he replied that it will be ready to be operational for I-Class frigates. (TCG-Istanbul is going to be ready next year)

    How about the radar to complement it in such long ranges? Where is that going to be? I am no radar expert. But if I remember correctly it is the accuracy of tracking at longer ranges that is the stumbling block on air defence missiles not the actual range a missile can achieve. So you need a...

    F35 is an over ambitious plane to say the least. The program cost is the most ever for any plane ever developed in the world.
