Bro, Electronic Warfare (EW) will have significant effects on both GPS and Inertial Navigation Systems (INS) .As the name suggests it affects electronic equipment. Both GPS and INS contain electronic systems. GPS signals are weak signals and the electronic systems receiving it can be jammed...

That is false economy. It s not feasible to shoot thousands of 30thousand dollar Shaheeds with 3 to 4 million dollar AD missile each time. You would soon end up spending billions. Ukranians use 50 caliber guns fitted on to pickups to bring them down. We have a similar gun based system to...

All above posts are positive sides. If I become the devil’s advocate; Are kamikaze drones really that effective? Shaheeds in Ukraine have a hit rate of around 10-15%. Majority being shot by cheap gun systems. Only in swarm mode could they be more effective. Russians claim up to 45% success...

Flat-nosed, or "blunt," missile nose cones are designed to manage extreme aerodynamic heating by creating a detached bow shock wave, which pushes the hottest gases away from the missile's surface. Blunt Body Aerodynamics: By using a blunt (flat) nose instead of a sharp point, the shock wave...

THAAD uses a BAE Systems built IIR seeker. These seekers are used at the final terminal stage to pinpoint a target’s position. They are covered with heat absorbing materials and are made available at the last stage of a missile’s flight where the cover (the shroud) is discarded...

Brasil doesn’t really have any enemies.But the real gist of the matter here is being able to have access to nuclear power and nuclear technology, through which they intend to manufacture their own mini nuclear reactors to use in nuclear submarines. They have a huge country and a long shoreline...

Forget “America First” . It is “Israel First“ for all US presidents and Senate/Congress members. That has been the case for quite sometime now. So it is no surprise!

US has two missile systems in the Iran theatre that can achieve this: ATACMS and PrSM. ATACM has a 300km range with a single rocket launcher and is good for stationary targets. After 2016 there was a program to make ATACMS that can hit moving sea targets. But it was later shelved. So if the...

Wasn’t this one and the second İstif Izmir, due to be sold to Indonesia? If rumours are correct!!

I think we will have to agree to disagree. There is a a lot there that is mentioned. No one sits down re negotiating over a provisional sale if there weren’t problems there. As I have said let us agree to disagree.

ICAO is worldwide. EASA applies to European Union only. EASA is stricter. ICAO is non regulatory. It provides standards. EASA is regulatory . It makes ICAO standards legal. SHGM is our EASA. Below listed countries have bilateral agreement with Turkiye to accept SHGM certificates...

Apparently Turkiye uses SHGM certification. These certificates are issued under ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization). Attached file has the list of ICAO countries that will accept these certificates: https://www.icao.int/about-icao/member-states It may not be an EASA certificate...

As far as I can see the highlighted points do add a new perspective. Demiroglu and SSB have been blowing the trumpet that the 48 planes sale was a done deal. Well according to news coming in, it is not. In fact unless the Turkish side can give unequivocally the unquestionable proof that the...

No, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and Passive Electronically Scanned Array (PESA) represent two different aspects of radar technology, with the former describing an imaging technique and the latter describing an antenna architecture. (As far as I know, Aselsan do not have any PESA radars...

https://www.defenceturk.net/turk-f-16-savas-ucaklari-kibris-yolcusu In view of the latest drone activity resulting from Iranian attacks to Israel and US military positions and any country that provides help, many European countries had sent AD missile systems, jet fighters and AD frigates to...

MİLSAR is not explicitly described as a PESA (Passive Electronically Scanned Array) radar. Instead, it is defined as a Ku-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and Moving Target Indication (MTI) radar. MILSAR is also not an Aesa Radar. Although Aesa radars have SAR capability to increase their...

Good point! Now let us look at F110 engine: It originated from the F101 engine originally developed for the B1 bomber in late 1970’s. So in effect the PIP package of F101 is the F110. Then a stealthy version of the F110 appeared without the afterburner. That was F118. These propelled B2...

The 100 units and more probably are OK. As we have the green light, a licenced production agreement needs to be signed for a given timescale, like we did with t700 and the Honeywell cts800 engines. Then we start manufacturing the engines within that time scale. Of course the two engines‘...
