Iron Dome doesn't intercept rockets that fall in areas designated as safe zones by the operator/commander. As the number of interceptor missiles dwindles you will only see the interception of rockets that directly target military bases, important government buildings and infrastructure.

IMHO we need 1 more marine brigade. Amphibic Commando Corps should have 3 brigades. 1 in İzmir Foça, 1 in İskenderun and another one in Muğla.

There is great interest in Gürz from the TSK. Aselsan works on the clock to ready the system.

There is no technology transfer. Aselsan offers an ATOM serial production line to win the Romanian SPAAG tender. Aselsan offers Korkut and ATOM against the Rheinmetall solution. Aselsan has a big price advantage and now with local production of ATOM Aselsan's hand will be really strong. It will...

410 has a laser designator.

Negotiations between the US envoy and Iranian officials are going on full steam.

Iran talks the talk Israel walks the walk. Even now Israel is conducting air operations and assassinating high-level commanders.

Israel is probably emptying some buildings right now so that Iran can hit them and claim revenge is taken. Iran will show explosions of buildings similar to what Iran did to the US airbase in retaliation for Soleimani assassination.

We should get 10 A400Ms if we can.

Because no one is sure about it. Erdogan will run again given the chance.

What can be done is very limited. We should have never accepted the NATO-Israel deal in the past (Erdogan voted in favor of it).

Thx Captain obvious for saving the day again.

EU and US diplomats are negotiating with Iran to keep retaliation at a certain level so as not to cause a regional war. I guess it will be similar to last time. Some nice fireworks to appease the average Iranian to save face. Don't expect anything big.

It is an issue even the ex-head of Tübitak SAGE Gürcan Okumuş talked about that issue in an interview. BTW RAM is tested against GQM-163 Coyote test target missile. Anyone who thinks RAM is worse than AIM-9X when it comes to missile interception should just check what GQM-163 Coyote is.

Yes, but pulling 50G is not something you want as the missile will bleed a lot of energy. Even against supersonic missiles the missile is not supposed to be pulling 50Gs. It means your guidance is so bad at calculating Predicted Intercept Point(PIP) that the missile is compensating for that...

Bozdoğan is not suitable for missile and UAV interception missions period. When you want your 140kg A-A missile to pull 30-40G maneuvers at mach 3 to 4 your tiny actuators need to produce enough torque to run a car. What we need is a smaller, lighter therefore inherently agile, relatively cheap...

You are talking as if Levent won't have agility and performance. Levent will be an inherently agile missile as it is a lot lighter than Bozdogan. Bozdogan uses some really expensive and exotic subsystems to be agile at that weight. Less mass=more inherent agility, more mass=less inherent agility...

If what you wrote is true he will win fast after acquiring Turkish drones and logistics to feed his forces and supporters.

No there is a reason why there is no naval AIM-9X. There were sea sparrow based short range naval air defense systems in the past but they were abandoned in favor of RAM and today there are no naval air defense systems based on the predecessor of sea sparrow. If we try to intercept incoming...

It depends. It has only an IIR sensor and no passive RF sensors. It is big and expensive because it is designed as an a-a missile for high-value air targets.
