    There is a big problem with ramjet missiles. Their flight time is a lot longer compared to solid rockets. This means you have to feed updated target coordinates to the missile for a long time until the terminal engagement where the active RF seeker of the missile picks its target. This is one of...

    By the way, it seems like Viper AESA radar(AN/APG-83) comes with some defects due to its design. That is why Aselsan is designing a brand new cooling and power delivery system for its AESA radar. https://www.matec-conferences.org/articles/matecconf/pdf/2019/53/matecconf_easn2019_04001.pdf

    Well, that is what "vanilla" AESA does. Our AESA is a little different. It has ESM and ECM capability which means it can be used to analyze the radar signals in the radar's frequency range and can be used as a jammer.

    I don't think he meant PESA. What he probably meant is listening, recognizing, analyzing, and classifying radar signals. PESA is a type of active radar it emits signals. Passive radars don't emit RF signals.

    TF-X and F-16 AESA radar can also act as a passive radar(listening mode).

    It is way better. Eurofighter is designed as an intercepter so its job is A-A warfare. IMO it is the best 4th gen A-A fighter. If we compare the latest models of Eurofighter, Rafale, and Gripen I would rather be inside the Eurofighter. BTW no one "dogfights" in real war conditions. There is...

    Nothing good will come from all of those groups inside SNA. It doesn't matter what group it is. They manage to lose Seraqib despite Turkish UAVs wreaking havoc on regime material.

    By 2025 Mius will be in the inventory and supersonic Mius will probably be in flight tests. Today it is a good move in 2025 it is not a good move.

    Yeah, it was 27000lbs at first and increased to 29000lbs. That is the lowest acceptable at the moment. 35.000 lbs thrust is more like a target rather than a bare minimum.

    A new booster engine, a smart capsule(kinda like an empty torpedo that can go to designated coordinates) is in design for Sub-Atmaca. I expect a range increase for Sub-Atmaca like the Atmaca-Land.

    Ukraine Navy Ukranian Corvette Project: Ada Class

    MICA-VL VLS cells are very compact so rather than penetrating the hull they are placed above the deck. It is a logical choice. Mk41 on the other hand is a big system and has to be placed behind the 76mm cannon by penetrating the deck. Ada class has space for 8x Mk41 VLS behind the 76mm cannon...
