Well the design looks good and sleek and it will be quite an achievement to develop and fly in a few years. It took TAI quite long to develop the Anka From 2004 - 2010 (6 years development time till first flight) From 2010 - 2013 tests and qualifications till delivery in 2013 After that upgraded...

It writes 001, so this one is the first prototype?

Looks good, when will it fly?

jet powered heavy glide bombs with ranges of >300km would be very nice

MIMO = Multiple Input Multiple output In MIMO structure you have multiple radars (take for example 4 radars) spread in an area. All 4 radars location is known by the other radars and all of them transmit in a different frequency (so each radar signature is different) and all of these radars...

It is an FMCW radar, not MIMO. x-band range and more like MMW radar

TÜBİTAK, Düşük Radar Kesit Alanına Sahip Hava Hedeflerini Tespit Edecek Radar Geliştiriyor https://m5dergi.com/savunma-haberleri/tubitak-dusuk-radar-kesit-alanina-sahip-hava-hedeflerini-tespit-edecek-radar-gelistiriyor/ Milli Elektronik Harp ve Elektronik Destek Podu Projesinde Sona...

Drone and bomb are like chicken and egg. Both need each other to exist and be effective. Those are one of the best products the Turkish defense industry produced and made us all proud. But MAM-L type bombs are rather small and have a limited impact, yes they take out tanks, armored vehicles...

Where is the torpedo in this one?

They talk mostly like milli tasarim. National design. You can design something 100% but that does not mean all subsystems are national. You can use ready products in your design. There is a lot of noise and misunderstanding when talking about national products

TEI can continue development of TS3000. When you want perfection also in aircraft engines you will need competition. In the future these companies could even merge if needed (a way how companies grow). TEI could be stakeholder in that 50%. Anyway these are things that have to be decided on...

TV3 engine of Motor Sich is planned to be used in ATAK 2 and cargo helicopter projects. If TRmotor could takeover 50% of Motor Sich it would be very good (also for developing the TFx engine) But it would cost ~$3.5bln

Herons did also use Rotax, so if Heron uses PG115 it should be useful for TB2 too (without knowing the weight issues of PG115)

Wrongness as favoritism. Neither of the companies (FNSS, Otokar or BMC) is my fathers property, they all are national companies of Turkey. But if projects are started to be handed down in favoritism than the purpose of SSB goes down the drain. Favoritism would strengthen one company (at cost...

I would be one of the least on this forum wanting foreigners to rule us. SSB certainly make things that make us proud, but that should not lead to a blind eye to less acceptable practices. 100 good's does not wipe away one wrong. The wrong remains too.

Looks like Aksungur has the same type of SAR radar dome on the belly as the ANKA. With SAR the situational awareness and tracking of targets will increase immensely. That could mean that one SAR drone can find targets and a bunch of other drones following, be it ANKA or TB2 take out those...

You know exactly what I mean, and yes SSB is not as independent as it once was. Murad Bayar isn't wasted just for nothing

SSM did that, but since a few years it is SSB. Not independent but tied to the big boss, doing what big boss want to

What about armor, endurance, strength? I too want a 99% if possible 100% Turkish armor, but let face it Otokar and FNSS both have had their vehicles on tests for years and successfully exported them, meaning they are good! If there would be a real tender with real testing them out, than yes of...

In numbers also the amount of shipping is declining, one of the arguments is / was to relieve the straits from increasing shipping (it is not increasing but decreasing!)
