https://www.navalnews.com/naval-news/2020/09/land-based-anti-ship-missiles-and-the-u-s-marine-corps-options-available/ US is planning to use it’s ATACAMS modified HIMARS missiles as land and ship launched anti ship missiles with their 300 km range. This brings me to a previous message once...

To add to this. Once we have mastered the ramjet engine, the natural next step will be the scramjet missiles. These missiles will be real game changers for us. As it stands no one has the means to stop these. They will be real carrier killers, launched from ships or planes.

Ramjet maxes out at 6 mach. It will not work unless it is at supersonic speeds. So it has to have a solid fuel engine or booster to bring it to the right speed. In the case of the Meteor missile; solid propellant nozzleless booster is integrated within the ramcombustor and accelerates the...

Aesa radars need a lot of power. So the platform carrying them has to have engines that can provide enough juice for say 3+ megawatt transmission power and 5+ KW average power. Why do you think 5th generation planes have very powerful engines (apart from high super cruise capability)? The radar...

There are ~6.5 million Jews living in Israel There are ~7.5 million Jews living in USA they constitute more than 80% of all Jews in the world. According to a study carried out in USA, the median net worth of people believing in Judaism is calculated at 150,890 USD, while the median net worth of...

An old friend of mine’s father was an F16 pilot. He used to say f4 and f16 taking off together is such that ; literally the f16 would take off, make loop, come back and take off together with the f4 again. They are slow beasts to get off the ground. Engines are turbojet. So in theory should be...

In that case why did TuAF buy S400 system?

Have you checked the length and width of both missiles? Barak 8 275 kg, 4.5m in length, 22/54cm diameter, 2 Mach speed, range 100km ESSM 280 Kg, 3.7m in length, 25cm diameter, 4 Mach speed, range 50+km( more like 70km) They are quite different types of rockets In their designs. they may look...

We do need a jet UAV going forward. As I explained above the TS1400 engine can not be transformed in to a turbofan engine. But a turbofan engine redesigned around TS1400 engine that would give a thrust of 8500-9500lbf thrust would be ideal for a stealth jet UAV. Being a turbofan it would be more...

Correct! If TEI could produce a F404 engine in house at the same basis of the T700 engine it is producing for the Blackhawk helicopters, it would be great.

In theory what is written here is sort of correct. But; 8500-9500lbf thrust engine is not enough to power the Hurjet, unless you use two of these engines. Hurjet is a single engined plane now. Also to prove that we can build a gas turbine engine has been fulfilled with TEI building the TS1400...

https://www.c4defence.com/Gundem/tb2-sihalar-rusyada-endise-uyandirdi/11191/1 Ukraine has been flying the TB2 UAV’s quite close to Russian border in Crimea. Russians were worried as they have realised that the Ukrainians have learnt to fly them so that the Russians are not able to detect them.

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/hurjete-aesa-radar/ Hurjet will hava an Aesa radar. This means that the plane is not going to be a “trainer only”. But the GE-F404 engine they are going for is not the most powerful in it’s class. I only hope that an indigenous engine is being worked on , like the...

We should start searching Greek and German ships going through Bosphorus and Dardanelles until we receive a formal apology.

There is a lot of rumour going on in the media about the VLS purchase from the US for the I-Class frigate that it has undergone embargo restrictions. The last time I looked in to it, the sale of this VLS via BAE Systems, was approved by the US Senate. Have they rescinded their decision? Also...

We should demand a formal apology from the German government for the illegal action they have taken against our civilian ship, through state channels.

Exactly! Why didn’t they call it HGK-UM (uzun menzil)?

KGK (kanatlı güdüm kiti) already exists. What is the point in making HGK-ER? Or , is this the serial production we are seeing of KGK that Tubitak-Sage developed? https://www.sage.tubitak.gov.tr/tr/urunler/kanatli-gudum-kiti-kgk

I hope the Bora missile has terminal-course maneuvering capability like the Iskender M missile to evade air defence systems. I would also like to see it to be as aerodynamic as possible to improve it’s terminal speed.
