Yes he is Turkish and he was born in , and his parents are from Iskenderun, Hatay

DEPLETED Uranium is extensively used by US forces. It is the Uranium that has lost most of it’s “fissile isotope U235” . Non fissile element U238 is what it mostly has. But still contains 0.3% of the fissile 235 which is dangerous to humans. With a density of 19.1g/cm3 It is almost as dense as...

Most likely it will have Pulat. Last I checked Akkor was still not ready. Akkor is more advanced and my choice too. But lets see!!!

Kale is supported by P&W and RR. But not as experienced as TEI. They do produce certain parts of the f35 engine for P&W . It took them a long time (nearly 8 years) to produce a viable turbojet engine for the SOM and Atmaca cruise missiles. TEI on the other hand is owned 49% by GE. They have...

We are building a 5th generation fighter aircraft. It IS the latest and the greatest technology that is in use today. If we are not going to aim for a truly 5th gen air craft why even try? Tusas managing Director Temel Kotil himself said that we are trying to build a plane that is somewhere...

That modernisation was done by Aselsan. Who do you think is doing this modernisation now? BMC cocked up. So Aselsan is doing the current modernisation too.

If you investigate what is being done to the current leo2a4’s you will find that it is an extensive work that will make the tank survive today’s battlefield conditions. Just to name a few; ERA (explosive reactive armour) panels are being fitted to the tank against atgm attacks. It’s main armour...

According to this article, the Greek leo2a6 (hel) tanks are impossible to penetrate with frontal attack with the best sabot rounds around. That only leaves back, sides and most importantly the weakest top penetration and/or ATGM penetration. Roketsan’s Tanok has top penetration mode. So could...

There were 57 t-129 Atak deliveries as of June 2020. Each one costs about 50 million dollars. These are expensive pieces of machinery and easy to bring down with man pads. They have their uses; and are vital in the battlefield. But as said above we have enough of them. Because they are light...

I would classify Aksungur as a non deep strike platform as well. But why do you think they were testing it with 12 Mam-L and getting ready for 24 Mam-L? Why try Teber missile launch which is not a stand off ammo? May be they know more than we do!!

Aksungur, made with all the knowledge and experience gathered from Anka UAV, is the culmination of all relevant technologies to date by Tusas. But the main question still stays regarding it’s performance with respect to real battlefield conditions and how it would fare against the enemy radars...

https://www.defenceturk.net/northrop-grumman-yeni-nesil-obus-muhimmati-icin-ramjet-motor-denemesi-yapti Northrop Grumman has been testing to use ramjet propelled 155mm artillery ammunition rounds to achieve around 100km range with pinpoint accuracy. BAE Systems has been developing hyper velocity...

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/leopard-2a4-modernizasyonu/ they are in the process of modernising leo2a4 tanks. The so called Altay with L44 gun is actually a leo2a4 with an Altay turret. It seems that they are trying to use same sub systems for the tanks for ease of exchange of parts. Although...

Hard launch is another name used for hot launch.

According to the explanation given here; Soft launch is another version of cold launch. By using minimum amount of gas to launch the missile , less force and stress is exerted on the electronic sensors. Also because of less gas usage simultaneous launches can be realised.

The design flaw I was referring to was the fact that the first class214 sub built for Greek Navy had balance problems. As it was surfacing it was badly tilting at its side. This had to be addressed and corrected By adding weights etc. Our navy was not pleased with the interlm solution Germans...

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/dikey-atim-sistemlerinde-baslatma-teknikleri/ A nice tutorial about various vertical missile launch systems. Turkish MDAS systems will probably be using cold launch; then in time may evolve in to a soft launch. Thanks to embargoes being in place the indigenous...

An active protection such as Aselsan’s Akkor would not pose danger to infantry as it would destroy incoming rocket/missile at a fair distance from the tank. But a system like Pulat, which is developed by Aselsan from Ukraine’s Zaslon system would be dangerous to close by infantry As it explodes...

Yes you are right the T700-TEI-701D engine develops 2000hp. But these engines are being produced under licence for the Blackhawk helicopters Tusas/Tai has a contract for 109 platforms. Can TEI produce extra engines without GE approval for another platform? The other point is the US Abrams uses a...
