Congrats to our Korean brothers. In a fairly short time they have a top class 4.5 generation semi stealth aircraft in mass production. In time when their indigenous stealthy engine and Aesa radar is fully integrated and the plane start utilising an IWB, it will have matured to be a very good...

https://www.yenisafak.com/gundem/samp-t-gorusmeleri-yeniden-basliyor-4812220 As Turkey strengthens its domestic and national air defense projects, it is preparing to resume negotiations with Italy for the SAMP-T system, which is seen as a critical interim solution. Ankara is discussing air...

Bro, no modern army has the US’s firepower and logistics. Full stop. They are the top dog in terms of these two capabilities. But it doesn’t mean that other modern armies lack the capability to attempt a similar rescue operation. Would they risk it? That is the question! In this case US were...

So they landed 2 x C130 with probably 2 x 2 MH6 little bird helicopters inside (that is how many it can accommodate with rotors folded) and these helicopters and plane were totalled by US forces when IRGC units arrived and started a firefight and no one even were injured. Those MH6s have 2 crew...

It is stated that the structural modernisation of Block 30 aircraft is targeted to be completed by the end of 2026. Work continues on the ÖZGÜR-2 program, which will be applied to Block 40 and 50 aircraft.

News are coming in that Qatar is refusing US to use its bases from Qatari land against any other country. In short if true, Qatar is kicking US out of Qatar.

A modern stealth plane’s engine TIT value has not got much to do with it’s IR signature. A plane like F35 has an engine that is at the limit of current engineering capability. Because of that, the engine keeps breaking down. The engine’s exact TIT at 1980degrees Celsius is a guesstimate as it...

To add to this I guess what is said on below video 2.00 min is important. Ex TÜBİTAK Sage MD Gutcan Okumus clearly states that: “even though I am not at liberty to quote any range figures for Siper 2 range, it is clear that attaining 1.5-2 times the current range is potentially there. A...

In all honesty, looking at what Israel got US doing for itself and how they bombed Iran together, we need not advertise too much about our ballistic missile capabilities. A lot of it should be done under wraps. But unfortunately anything under wraps is not good political propaganda material.

Bro, Murat İkinci clearly specified this as a “hypersonic “ missile. It is classified as a manoeuvrable missile. I know very well that even missiles like Bora may be bordering hypersonic speeds during mid flight. But Tayfun is much faster and Block-4 is supposed to manoeuvre. You do not unveil a...

I don’t usually like guesswork. Especially after Roketsan MD Murat İkinci mentioning this missile to fly at hypersonic speeds and hitting it’s target at or above 5Mach speed. As he also said that this is a hypersonic weapon; one of the prerequisites of hypersonic missiles is the fact that they...

The major defining parameter in a solid fuel rocket's range is the total impulse of the rocket motor, which is primarily driven by the total mass and energy content (specific impulse) of the propellant grain. Total impulse dictates the overall energy available for propulsion. A higher mass of...

How can you say that when Türkiye has planned over 60billion dollar trade each year with Germany? We still have 6 AIP submarines being built with German cooperation. 33% of the Eurofighter production comes from Germany. RAM point defence missiles project has German involvement. German companies...

I’m afraid that isn’t entirely reflecting the complete picture. Siper block 2, as you say, should provide limited defence capabilities against ballistic threats. But in essence it is a 150+km range, 30km altitude single stage missile specifically designed to intercept high altitude UAVs, jet...

That is not quite correct. F16V70 and “Typhoon Tranche-3 and newer” are not in the same league. Typboons are much more potent fighting machines with better RCS and as air superiority fighter-jets they are miles ahead of the US plane. The only thing that will bridge KAAN to F16s are planes like...

The Özgür Project replaces foreign-sourced mission computers and avionics with Turkish-developed systems, such as the MURAD AESA radar and flight software. The program is designed to be compatible with Block 30, 40, and 50 aircraft. Instead, Turkey's Özgür modernization project bypasses this...

I know! Up until now there were vague insinuations about the use of Murad in conjunction with Gokdogan. This is the only source I came across that clearly states the successful use of Murad-100, Gokdogan and F16 Ozgur. I can understand your pessimism. But Aselsan has been developing and...
