I like that logic! Makes sense. If you leave your pilots inexperienced about warfare in supersonic flight conditions, they would be at a disadvantage when they have to.. But this plane is there to train pilots for a fighter jet that is a flying computer in essence, that is also carrying...

After a long delay the T-7A trainer deliveries have started with the first units. https://www.boeing.com/defense/fighters-and-bombers/t-7 This is a state of the art trainer, specially designed to train 5th and next generation fighter pilots. But the problem is that these fighters are so easy to...

Get back to the main topic of the tread before your posts are deleted please.

For a turbojet powered short range cruise missile it has too little amount of explosives. Block 1 has 6kg. (similar to a 155mm shell) . Block 2 has 20kg. It has to be pretty precise when hitting a target though. CEP of better than 3m is needed for maximum damage. Especially on moving targets.

Bro, that is on paper and in advertising propaganda information. 1. If it takes off vertically, its operational range is shortened so much that the whole process becomes almost futile. Increased mechanical complexity, reduced internal payload/fuel capacity, less range/endurance and higher fuel...

If you look at the below picture and the 3D model, there is a sizeable radome there to fit some form of a radar in. The designers of the plane, namely Tusas, say they will “ integrate” the Murad radar. So they know how to do it. Operative word there is “integrate”. We are not designers of this...

https://turdef.com/article/aselsan-to-integrate-murad-100-a-radar-on-anka-iii-ucav Murad 100-A will be integrated in to Anka-3. This is good news. Anka-3 with an Aesa radar will be deadlier than ever. It will be able to strike targets really deep in to enemy territory. Come on TEI ! It is...

Although PIF-PAF is a great system that gives advanced agility to interceptor missiles, it is not a must. Especially within atmosphere applications, TVC and traditional fin systems are more than adequate for fine manoeuvring. Our dual pulse interceptors all use TVC and fins to manoeuvre. Things...

No! This “PIF” thrust control is done directly by exhaust gasses or something similar to that effect, that are expelled from the body of the missile. TVC is the system that mechanically diverts nozzle of the rocket motor. With “PIF”, on the body of the missile there are points from which exhaust...

I don’t see the point or need to find similarities between Russian or US AD systems and ours S400 is classed as the best long range AD system by certain circles. Yet Ukranian planes are still operating within its effective operating radius. Plus many of them have been taken out. They have only...

Prior to Bronze Age and till Middle Ages humans used to covet what the next village had. The instinctive drive to have more than they had used to propel them to attack the neighbouring villages and capturing their possessions including their women. In a positive way, this allowed gene pool to...

The 225km range is especially important. It is the distance from our waters west of Cesme to Athens.

As you may be mostly correct in what you are saying, and this is an amount uttered in written form by the top man in SSB, hence we have to take it as genuine; TEI’s 2024 export turnover was around 400 million dollars. It is expected that they will declare the 2025 export turnover to be around...

There are news coming in that Bangladesh is lining up to buy 6 Atak-129 helicopters in addition to the 10 Typhoons. https://defencesecurityasia.com/en/bangladesh-air-force-modernisation-eurofighter-typhoon-t129-atak-forces-goal-2030/#...

@Boykaz bro, I don’t know why you had my post translated in to Turkish. It has mistakes in Turkish. To answer your question; With SADAK-4 it may be possible to fit 8 of them if the IWB of KE can handle 360-370cm length . (SOM-J is 390cm long)

Bro, edited or not, it is the idea and here is another one showing how it is possible. https://www.twz.com/adapter-for-f-35-internal-carriage-of-six-aim-120-missiles-is-progressing

4 x CAKIR may be not if side by side placement is the only way. But SOM-J has a stowed width of 480mm. CAKIR has a diameter of 275mm . 4 x 275 = 1100 mm 2 x 480 = 960 mm. If they can find 15-20cm more width inside the IWB then it is possible (after all as we have full authority over the plane...

It is the most vital capability of this aircraft. Since it is a Low Observable plane by nature, it has to make use of this trait. Carrying a couple of SOM-J missiles for stand off attack for heavier ships and up to 4 x CAKIR MrRAShM for lower weight naval targets should be within it’s munition...

Let us get few basics out of the way first: Every compressor stage consists of a stator and a rotor. Stator is stationary and it’s fans guide the airflow pushed in to them by the rotating “rotor” fans, to the next stage. Should the Rotors that are in the f404 engines used in the Spanish FA/18...
