What has this got to do with the explosive power of the MRAShM? Also I was pointing out that the missile flight profile and performance must have been optimised for sea skimming flight. Hence it is probably most comfortable and fastest at this mode. By the way; I agree with what you say. But as...

As it is a sea skimming missile in design, it will have to get down to sea skimming altitudes to be effective and during the last 25-30 km it needs to be as fast as possible to get to it’s target since within that last 30km it will start to be visible to enemy radars. Another point is that...

On it’s specs it says it can reach 0.9 Mach speed at an altitude of 5000ft. That means either any higher, then it may not have enough oxygen as the air is rarified and performance drops, or any lower, then the air is too dense for it to achieve high subsonic. But as the latter is directly...

This engine is great for MRAShM. But it could also be used on our KGK Mk84 range of gliding ammunitions, to give them extra range. US is already trying this with their JSOW and achieved ranges around 555km...

Do you really believe that TCG Anadolu cost only 345 million dollars? In a previous speech that I personally listened to, twice to be sure, Mr Ismail Demir said the cost of this ship , let us say, is normally over 1 billion Euros. But we managed to produce it for 35%less. In other words for...

Hisar RF is not like ESSM. It has a dual pulse solid fuel motor. It will be fired from indigenous VLS system MDAS quad packed canisters. On the other hand, G40 missile is similar in physical form to ESSM. With a booster it “may” be good enough to be a Siper missile. Both G40 and Hisar missiles...

https://www.defenceturk.net/yerli-aesa-radar-en-az-f-16-viperdaki-apg-83-kadar-kabiliyetli-olacak The Aesa radar systems planned to be incorporated in to our F16’s will be at least as good and as capable as the apg83 radars used by V70 vipers.

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/deniz-platformlari-hisar-rf-fuzesi/ Turkish naval ships will have the protection umbrella of Hisar-RF missile system. In place of the ESSM systems with similar range and characteristics, Hisar-RF missiles will be launched from ships like I-class frigates using...

Well, as new Aesa radars will be incorporated into our f16’s in the next few years, there is no need to buy any foreign made planes. https://www.savunmasanayist.com/aselsan-yerli-aesa-radar/

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/tcg-anadolu-katlanabilir-kanatli-siha/ TCG Anadolu is going to have folded wing UAV’s stationed on it’s deck. Although these UAV’s won’t be able to carry out air-to-air engagements, they will be used in air-to-surface bombing operations. TB3 of Baykar seems to be...

If this engine is really capable of developing 1000HP power, then why not turn this in to an electrodiesel and use it in a hybrid configuration with a 7-800 HP Lithium/Ion battery pack, to drive a 75 ton tank? No transmission and enormous torque with silent running when needed as well!

Even if the runway is moved toward port side where the left wing overhangs a bit, it is not possible for Anka, Aksungur and Akinci to land or take off from TCG Anadolu as there just isn’t enough clearance for safe movement on deck and in lifts unless wings are fully collapsible. Also I don’t see...

Quote: And then i remember this project which literally pulled some budget from SSB and Tübitak for R&D and gave nothing in return: unquote. @anmdt , Watozz or whatever it was called was a project by a private company. This is the brainchild of Tubitak-Mam. Totally different scenario...

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/gemisavar-fuze-motoru-tj300-test/ MRAShM engine TJ300 has undergone a set of new tests on it’s way to being used in the medium range missiles for the Turkish navy platforms and navy helicopters. As well as replacing the ageing Penguin missiles fired from Seahawk...

Tubitak Mam has done it again. It looks like Turkish subs will be able to stay under water a good deal longer than previously planned. They claim to have doubled the duration under water for Reis. Gur, Preveze and Ay class submarines. Somehow they have increased the capability of the subs to...

If you read my post a second time you will see that ; I may have reservations but with Akinci ever evolving like TB2 (remember how TB2 suffered in it’s early days in Syria with enemy electronic interference) , we should see this UAV to be quite beneficial. Proof of the pudding is in the eating...

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/seri-uretim-bayraktar-akinci/ Akinci’s serial production No1 is getting ready to join the ranks. No2,3&4 are in the pipeline too, according to the reports coming in. Does any one know if these are going to be with 2x750 HP Ukrainian engines or with PD 170/PD 222...

Do you not think that everyone is overlooking the conditions of sale of these ships to the scrapyard? If memory serves right, there is a clause in the sales conditions, that these ships can only be used for scrapping. Recommissioning or re using them for military is absolutely forbidden. Aliaga...
