    Wrong. It has nothing to do with comms range. You can still fly in circles without a SATCOM. Akıncıs minimum speed is 130knots and its endurance is 24 hour. 130knot=240.5km/h 240.5*24=5772km. If you take bingo fuel into account, it has a 5000km range and 2500km mission radius.

    You know nothing. -SANs are not state-owned they act and operate as private companies. Private companies can run their own tenders that are extremely fast and efficient compared to a state institution. That is why you won't see a shit company winning Aselsan tenders. State tenders work...

    ESM is wrong. It is called Aselsan AREAS-2N. The difference between ARES and AREAS is that AREAS has electronic attack capability(Jamming). It is an AESA based ESM and high-power DRFM Jammer. AREAS is not offered to everyone like Koral but might become available in time as next-generation...

    Malaysia and Bangladesh are close to signing a contract for procuring Turkish UAVs. Malaysia wants 3x Anka-S and Bangladesh wants an undisclosed amount of TB2.

    TR Altay Main Battle Tank & Related Programs

    So true Atak is the one with TS-1400. True Akıncı will not exist as there is no Turkish engine alternative. By that logic, we would have no Atak choppers by now similar to Altay tank and still waiting for TS-1400 to become operational. And we would have no Akıncı ever. True Milgem also doesn't...

    A Vision for the Future of Turkish-Algerian Relations: Convergence, Cooperation and Coordination (PART 2)

    If I'm not mistaken Algeria bought some UAE UAVs and it turned out that they are completely useless. The situation is brought to the court and it seems like someone will pay a big price.

    540nm mission range. It is lower than I expected. I was expecting a 600+nm mission range.

    As I said Russians haven't introduced any single-crystal blades up to today. All of the Russian products including the most recent ones use directionally solidified superalloys. That is the reason why Russian engines need more maintenance and have worse overhaul periods(MTBO-Mean Time Between...

    Siper is %100 on track. Cost. You need to fill those VLS cells. 32x VLS means ~100 million $ rather than 50. That is big. At 3000 tonnes I class sits at a very cost-effective sweet spot. It is a general-purpose frigate with outstanding air defense capability offered at a very competitive price.

    Mius cant take off from the LHD Anadolu with Al-25TLT even with afterburner. Mius will either get lighter or will be limited to ground bases with Al-25TLT configuration. AL-322F version can operate from LHD with an MTOW of ~5000kg without any problem.

    No, they use directionally solidified blades made from superalloys. No real single crystal capability. Russian will use single crystals in izdeliye-30(next-generation engine of the Su-57) but they are having big problems. The project has seen delay after delay. Cracking the single-crystal tech...

    This has been a very difficult and very successful project so far. The design changes in mid-production are really hard to cope with. It might seem easy but making calculations for Chinese systems and replacing them with British systems in mid-production is a hell to go through. Most other...

    No, I can %100 confirm that Ukraine doesn't have single-crystal technology. If designed with the same dimensions I expect TF-6000 to produce up to %25 more thrust than Al-322.
