Well! If you check it out, the price of each S80 is near 1 billion Euros. That means 4billion Euros for four S80s. (It was estimated that in 2012 the cost of 4 subs to be around 2.2 billion Euros) Our 6 Reis class ships’ total cost, at the time of contract, was to be 2.06 billion Euros. So there...

The AIP system S80 uses is by provided by Hynergreen in Sevilla - Spain of Abengoa. Abengoa is a large Spanish company that operates in more than 80 countries; albeit having some financial difficulties in recent years. Fuel Cells are from UTC Power of USA. Regarding Turkish AIP system: There is...

The Trace you left behind is indelible.

You need to search a bit before making bold statements like that. Rolls Royce XG40 engine is the starting point of the EJ200 engine. Yes, It was developed by the quad country consortium and the MTU Aero was allowed to produce the engine. But in its core the engine has all the hallmarks of a...

Dear members, It has come to notice that the number of Initialisms that are used in the forum are somehow a sore point for some “aged” , young and amateur members. Therefore we are suggesting that : We advise all members that, it is better to put the expanded version of the initialisms, on...

Having read the whole document, my understanding is such that, it includes every technology related to KAAN, including propulsion systems. But the document actually is related to UK companies. It tells UK companies they are free to transfer and release all related technology with respect to...

To support this news another credible enough source has also mentioned the same quantities. 200 f404 engines with first 100 being definite and a further 100 units on option. https://tolgaozbek.com/savunma/turk-savunma-sanayi/hurjet-icin-toplam-200-motor-alimi-hedefleniyor/ TEI wants to...

So that Turkiye can export without recourse, to third parties the products produced under the licence agreement or use technology exported to Turkiye from UK. That is a free ticket to transfer all technology related to TFX, be it software, design features of KAAN, or its propulsion systems and...

You would spend as much time and effort and money, if not more , than if you were trying to upscale the locally produced T700 TEI engine. That TF6K is a big diameter engine. You need to scale it down. Get rid of the bypass system. In essence you would be producing a totally new engine. You might...

Why don’t you read the whole post in its entirety and understand the message being tried to be conveyed; in stead of picking a single statement. 1. In 2018 415 piece order was given for SOM. We don’t know if further orders were given or not. These are state secrets in essence. They will not...

Exactly! The TF6000 engine will turn in to a turbo shaft engine of 5000-7000HP power level monster. That sort of power is good for tilt rotor used in Osprey like planes. That is an overkill for Atak2. The 3000 HP power level turbo shaft we need, can best be achieved if TEI is asked to...

That Engine is 2200+ HP class engine. It is too big for Gokbey. Gokbey either uses a pair of Honeywell LHtec 800 or TS1400. Motor Sich engine will be an over kill and wouldn’t fit in to Gokbey anyway. Gokbey’s engine compartment is designed to accommodate either TS1400 or LHtec.

How do you know how many tactical ballistic missiles we have? Yildirim were in stock in hundreds for many years before it came out that we had them. Bora missiles were purchased in fairly good quantities. In 2018 Roketsan received 415 units of SOM orders. Also in 2018 , Roketsan had already...

Why do you think we have been building missiles like Tayfun and CENK? With our current technical expertise to fit two way data link and/or a capable seeker head on these missiles to render them usable as precision guided against moving sea targets should be well within our grasp. A missile with...

This is Levent point defence system. It has a Sungur missile and a bigger longer range Levent missile that Roketsan was developing. Quote: Roketsan envisaging to use it from on board UAVs, as well as for naval purposes. Depending on the type of target and on the intercept range, the 8 km...

You are correct about interchangeability of jet fighter engines. It is not an easy task by all means. But if the shoe fits, it is not impossible either. The engine compartment of KAAN is wide enough to accommodate the WS15’s diameter. But WS15 is more than 40cm longer than F110. Then again we...

Great news! We now have a FLIR (Forward looking Infra Red) system to fit in to our helicopters and UAVs that will obviate the need to import these without having to worry about their like for like performance levels. Of course being a FLIR it needs to operate in comparatively clear weather...

Modern Turkey’s foundation was finally formed in to shape on 29th of October 1923, as it clearly stated that the Turkish State that rose from the ashes of an Empire is now a Republic. But the true foundation of the Turkish state was set in 1920 on 23rd of April when the National Assembly...

Your pessimism does have valid points. But : 1. It is wrong to compare us with a country who was and is living off the inheritance of Soviets, devoid of new blood to improve. 2. It is also wrong to compare Turkiye with any other country as the logistic conditions would not be the same. 3. And...
