Bro, if a ship is cruising at 18Knots and a Tayfun is coming from 500km away, it will take Tayfun around 4 minutes to reach the target. During this time the ship will be 2.2 km away from original position. The ship would be moving at 9.2metres every second. At hypersonic speeds manoeuvering...

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/natoda-bir-ilk-tayfun-blok-3-gemiyi-vurdu/ According to this article they are saying : The missile, which reached hypersonic speeds during the terminal phase, destroyed a highly maneuverable, small-sized surface target by striking it directly. This success that...

Bro, fantastic news that they are working on an anti ship ballistic missile. But don’t get too enthusiastic yet. 1. The target was not moving. 2. Have they confirmed the terminal speed to be hypersonic? 3. Did the missile contain explosives? 1. it is a different cattle of fish to hit a moving...

This is the type of response you would get from people who have a chip on their shoulder. It is not becoming of you. Where in @TR_123456 ’s post there is any notion of putting anybody down, or even an insinuation that Turks are more evolved than any other nation? It is a common mistake most...

One needs to look at the Delhi Sultanate and Mughal Empire. Many of the early rulers of Delhi Sultanate and the subsequent Mughal Empire rulers were fundamentally Turkic. They helped establish the Islam religion in the sub continent. In Turkish, army means Ordu. The language spoken by the Ordu...

Bro that is a logical assessment. But if we play devil’s advocate, could it be because we still could not manage to perfect Pif-Paf manoeuvring in missiles and by buying or joining a co-production cycle will help us. (Both pac3MSE and Aster30-B1NT missiles use pif-paf system. With limited TOT it...

Something most are missing is the fact that these bombs are only good if you have air superiority. Otherwise you could lose most of your air force against a country that has an intact modern AD system. Why doesn't Russian air force use their planes for bombing? Could Pakistani or Indian air...

1700 units of MK84A based HGK (Turkish version of JDAM) has been delivered to Airforce. A lot of bombs! If the overall range and manoeuvrability of plane is not to be hindered the f16 is limited to carrying 2 of these and the standard a2a missiles. This means 850 sorties worth of bombs. That is...

Very detailed article. If TurAF will go for any of the mentioned platforms however, is another matter. One platform; Embraer C390 which is a state of the art jet powered airlifter has not been mentioned. Quantity of airlift planes are never enough for an airforce. They are one of the most...

Blackrock’s co-founder and CEO , Larry Fink is Jewish. BlackRock has operated in Israel since 2016 and maintains significant investments across the region. Fink has spoken out against bigotry and hatred. Following the events of October 7, 2023, he publicly supported Israel's right to defend...

SAMPT system’s Aster 30 B1NT missile has a range of 150+ km and an operational altitude of 25+ km. It uses Pif-Paf course correction system that allows the missile to make precise and quick high G turns to be able to perform a hit to kill strike on the target whilst not being affected by decoys...

According to this paper : In June 2026, the formal notification went to Congress for more than 80 GE F110 engines, approved for Türkiye. The announcement landed days before the NATO summit, framed publicly as a gesture of alliance solidarity. This makes more sense with respect to the...

For a bulk order of 329 engines for 136 f15EX for the US , GE was given a contract of 1.58billion dollars in 2021. That puts each engine at just under 5 million dollars. https://www.defensenews.com/air/2021/10/29/ge-will-provide-all-f-15ex-engines-under-16b-contract/ 700million dollar...

I don't know what that something else is but; Cirit is supposed to be fully compatible with Lau 131 launchers. In addition to the LAU-131, the Cirit can be fired from other standard pods such as the LAU-61, LAU-68, LAU-130, M260, and M261. While the missile fits smoothly into these mechanical...

This is the type of launch system, if not THE launch system, used in EF for APKWS-II rockets. Our Cirit missiles are 15 kg each. With a 30 kg launcher, 7 Cirit would weigh 135 kg in total. 2 of these on either side of the wings would give you 540kg of payload with 28 missiles. Hurkus 2...

If I am not mistaken, the Hydra 70 missiles are built as non-guided. The APKWS2 upgrade adds wings and laser guidance to make it precision strike weapon. Also the LAU release mechanism can accommodate 6, 7 or 19 of them. When EF is set up, it is set to handle the 7 tube launchers for the...

You are correct re prices. That is why I edited my post. But nevertheless if we are able to integrate Cirit on to F16s, the cost to us, should be substantially lower than the current quoted Cirit price to foreign customers. Currently It is estimated to be around 25000 dollars a piece.

Bro have you checked how much a 70mm hydra class missile is in UK? Plus how much UK is going to charge you for that missile? Plus they buy the missiles from US. UK MOD paid over40000 dollars a piece for them 3 years ago (31.2 million dollars for 768 missiles) Our Cirit costs 19000 dollars. The...

Tolga Ozbek needs to be congratulated for having the perseverance to listen to that guy. He is like a machine gun throwing words at you. The info he gave of the Ramjet Engine was rather vague. It was fired to prove that land launching is doable for such a rocket. But whether the engine was...
