    This is wrong. Atmaca and Çakır have basic swarm capabilities. Atmaca has the capability of ToT*, DToT**, and SToT***. * Time on target (It means hitting a target at the desired time) ** Designated time on target ( A ship launches 2 or more Atmaca with different routes to hit a target at the...

    We don't want Çakır to end up as a million-dollar product. Atmaca and Çakır have many things in common and we are using that architecture to keep costs in check.

    Roketsan runs 70 projects from its own resources. Tubitak SAGE runs 60+ projects. Next year we will probably need the power of mighty @Oryx to keep track of unveiled Turkish defense industry projects.

    Çakır is not an anti-ship missile. It is a multi-purpose light cruise missile. Çakır started as an anti-ship missile but evolved into a multi-purpose missile., It will replace Maverick as well as Penguin.

    Depends where you hit. A lucky hit to the fuel depot or armory can make all the difference.

    Tanks are still important but the days of the 60+ ton behemoth tanks are over. Tanks will evolve. Lighter tanks(~50 tons) with less crew, even lighter optionally manned tanks, and even lighter robotic/unmanned tanks will appear. Advanced nations can build lighter tanks without sacrificing armor...

    Yeah, it seems like OMGSF and the Multi-Purpose missile project are merged and now ÇAKIR became a multi-purpose missile. ÇAKIR abbreviation must be something like "Çok Amaçlı KIzılötesi Roket" (Multi Purpose Infrared Rocket) ÇAKIR will probably be fired from sea, air, and possibly land against...

    I don't think we are producing 1000 Altay. We will probably produce 250 pieces and move to a better design. Producing 1000 Altay is useless.

    BTW KTJ-3200 and Arat are very similar. Rather than a new engine, i would say, it is an iteration of KTJ-3200.

    True. It can also be used as a multi-purpose system with its IR sensor( against sea and land targets). Çakır also ends with IR infrared and Çakır also refers to eyes of a person is another hint for IR guidance.

    This is misleading some of them are start dates and some of them are delivery dates. For example MAAT(ammo disposal facility) project started in 2007 but delivered in 2012 as far as i know. MAAT(ammo disposal facility) MGÜB (modular military base) DYÜ(base bleed unit) DSH(submarine warfare...

    I wonder what this is. Project names and actual names of the products differ a lot in the Turkish defense industry. Example: Project name: MIDAS= National Dipping Sonar Product name: Orkun 2053 Project name OMTAS-UMTAS Product name Mızrak-O, Mızrak-U ÇAKIR is probably the name of the product...

    Right now there is no Kara Atmaca and Kara Atmaca is designed for KTJ-3200 from the start. It won't have a foreign engine.
