    TR Sensors and Detector Programs

    Orbital tracking radar is not useful for the detection of F-35. Its purpose is to detect and track items orbiting Earth. Passive radar can detect F-35 from several hundred kilometers in favorable conditions. But it is an inherently different sensor compared to active radars and has caveats...

    Yes, they are probably the final ground-based sensors together with the passive radar system and STR-800G orbital tracking radar. There will be satellite-based early warning and SAR sensors. I guess we can also count UAV and airplane-based early warning radars, they are all interlinked.

    ALP-400G will have a more modern AESA antenna similar to Chinese JY-26 radar. The conceptual design phase is probably completed, and it is moving to the detailed design phase, which is why we are seeing a different design. ETA is 2029 for ALP-400G.

    S-400, F-35, CAATSA, Avrupa ile silah ticareti üçgeninde ilginç duyumlar var. Türkiye S-400 konusunda adım atmak için CAATSAnın kaldırılmasını şart koşmuş. Amerikalılara S-400 aldığımız için F-35'ten çıkarılmamız bir noktaya kadar anlaşılabilir, ancak CAATSA'nın uygulanması hiçbir sebeple makul...

    This is a great development if İzmir Alaybey military shipyard can construct OPV and FAC work density of other shipyards will decrease. İstanbul shipyard should concentrate on TF-2000 and MUGEM.

    We can roughly estimate F-135 values from this. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2214509522004028 In the Introduction, it was explained that runways are exposed to very high temperatures during the vertical take-off and landing of F-35B combat aircraft. During a take-off or...

    I found the exact values for F110 it is 482 degree celcius 10 feet away from the nozzle and 935 degree celcius when measured from the exhaust thermocouple(inside the engine just before the afterburner), both at military power. Admittedly the first figure is more useful considering the IR signature.

    Kaan will have lower IR signature than F-35 because F-35k exhaust temperature will be lower than F135. F110 EGT maxes a little higher than 900 degree celcius, F-135 EGT maxes around 1150 degree celcius at max dry thrust. If afterburner is utilized, it is an IR signature fiesta for both, but...

    The problem with F135 is that it has a very high exhaust temperature; the hotter the source, the longer the detection range.

    We have some very advanced shit on our hands when it comes to RAM. Early studies probably go back 2 decades. There are clues for deduction for the careful eyes in academia, and Ergun Kırlıkovalı mentioned contributing to 4 next-generation RAM materials for the Kaan

    F-16lara Murad AESA radar entegrasyon çalışmaları kapsamında karşılaşılan ilk ve en büyük sorun F-16ların kısıtlı kapasitesi sebebiyle soğutma sorunuydu. Ekip bunu aşmayı başardı. Bunun haricinde radarın çalışması, radar modlarının testleri, yazılım testleri gibi kalemler şimdiye kadar büyük...

    Source is not reliable, but what he wrote is %100 correct. I'm not talking about RCS of KAAN, it is classified; nobody knows that. I'm talking about RAM being better than F-35. That is true.

    Using a high-angle trajectory, air-launched missiles of this type can travel roughly three times the distance they would cover if launched from the ground. The video clearly shows the missile gaining altitude after launch. Since TRG-230 reaches 70 km when launched from the ground, we can...
