    TR Attack & Utility Helicopter Programs

    HOGE is Hover Out of Ground Effect. Atak II's figure is not that low, notice that the other two figures are for 15 Celcius while Atak's figure is for 35 Celcius. The different test temperatures is because their performance numbers in other temperatures were not available.

    There is no official information but range would be 800km for the first iteration and 1400km for the second. Speed should be around mach 0.8 I guess.

    TR Missile & Smart Munition Programs

    Among the publicly known projects it will have the longest range but for speed it will not be very speedy as it is a turbine engine powered missile. Turbines can be fast but a payload and speed balance is required for a missile hence speed is also less than ballistic missiles. Also low altitude...

    It will be a GE engine, not a domestic one. We have advancements and results in all fields related to the TFX development. The only loose end is the domestic engine which can take longer to develop than we think as the technology for it need to be developed in house. However we do have...

    IDEF is good for improving exports, we don't really need it for Turkey's own public. Turkish people are already informed of developments as they happen.

    2023 time-frame for major milestones of several large military projects has little to do with internal politics but more to do with taking this opportunity to push the Turkish national industry towards greater self reliance. It is a good anchor to push the industry forward. For the people the...

    Gezgin Missile engine will be a turbojet rather than a turbofan. This makes the time to completion of the project shorter as it will practically be a larger Atmaca/SOM. A turbofan model with a longer range will likely follow in the years after the completion of the turbojet model.

    Question: As makers of the new systems are domestic would it still be a logistical problem if a more diversified selection of systems is procured. I would buy the big chunk of the arsenal from highly domestic makers but still buy say 30% from lesser domestic but highly specialized makers, like...

    Electric addition to the propulsion mix brings the ship up to 24 knots I guess. That's not far less than 29 knots of the turbine sporting Milgem.
