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...

Would I be wrong in thinking that as these submarines’ production contract was in 2011 with HDW/MFI, all parts related to them were manufactured and even shipped to Golcuk. Because of the design fault of the subs the manufacturing process had to be postponed. But the parts were all shipped anyway.

That may have been your personal experience. I look at it from an engineer‘s point of view. 7 speed and 9 speed autoboxes of Mercedes cars are probably the finest in their class. (So it should be as their formula 1 cars give them enough tech input). Also Auidi’s auto box with double clutch...

With all these UAV’s we are building and their effectiveness being established, we should now be looking in to : 1. Establish a separate Airforce UAV command that will serve all three forces. (Not detracting from individual forces’ UAV usage for force-specific cases) 2. Set up an educational...

It is funny but sad at the same time. Unfortunately this is where we are at the moment. Because we can not build Altay, we are trying to find solutions to counteract our adversaries’ technical superiority.

Think of a M60 or M60A3 with a 105mm gun, and fitted with APS like Pulat and ERA fitted over turret. If our 105mm Tanoks are capable of reaching 6+ to 8 km then they are modern tank killers since Tanok has top penetration mode. No tank is going to have a sabot round that can penetrate from that...

As a country with an up and coming on the rise defence industry, Turkey should be looking in to the production of Hyper Velocity Projectile weapons. just by design geometry and materials used BAE Systems has managed to make a projectile that can achieve hypersonic speeds if fired from a...

Is it true that the WHO will allocate vaccine quantities to be delivered to countries in line with the number of cases they have declared. Hence Turkey coming clean with the “TRUE” number of cases.!?

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/m113-elektrikli-zirhli-muharebe-araci-e-zma/ Turkey’s MKEK and a private group are going to be modernising the M113 personnel carriers in the inventory with Hybrid Electric engines. just check out the torque value ; 6000NM! (1500hp MTU engine develops 4500NM) This...

It IS a heavy tank. When suddenly a lot of torque is needed the transmission is put under a lot of strain. Meterials Engineering used in gearing has to be very precise and is very important. Germans excel in this area. Just look at the auto boxes they use in Mercedes and especially in Audi cars...

Ktj3200 is actually ready to go on SOM and Atmaca. But as is the case for all new engines, the kjt3200 had to be integrated in to the said missiles. All tests have been completed. Engine parameters have been redesigned to be compatible with the missiles. (These missiles were using French TR40...

Current level of Hybrid technology is such that you do not need a transmission anymore. Hence space and overall weight savings. Li-ion battery technology has increased so much that they do not take as much space as they once did. Also remember that batteries can be placed anywhere within the...

There is so much public pressure about the Altay tank that to take the pressure off they will probably be producing a number of tanks - possibly less than a dozen or so in the months to come - with the spare MTU engines they have for the leo2a4‘s. Also refurbish and upgrade the 5 prototypes...

I don’t think we will have any problem building the plane with all the technical help from BAE Systems and the know how we have accumulated building f35, f16 etc. Most important part of the plane is the engine. Without it, all of this is immaterial. With Altay we made the mistake of not...

What I most like about these ships is that, they have capability to fire trg122 , trg230 and trg300 from their decks. The deficiency of our fleet’s land bombardment before a landing is hence alleviated and may be removed altogether. To bomb precisely the enemy positions before a landing is...

Please don’t forget L403 Sancaktar; Bayraktar’s sister ship.

I do not understand the amount of animosity and hatred UAE has against Turkey. Where does that originate from! They are so far away. They do not have global power aspirations. What have they got against Turkey? Or are they being manipulated by another power that is holding their strings?

I think we will see a t-629 being navalised rather than a t-129. It may take as long as 2023 before it becomes a reality. As no new t-129 helicopters are being delivered, one can’t help but think that the t-129 production has either stopped to make way fort-629 or there is some engine embargo...

TCG Anadolu, needs navalised helicopters on it’s deck. Also the crafts it is going to carry are not all ready yet. I know that the Super-Cobra’s we have are navalised and would be suitable. But we still do need Sea hawks and Navalised Chinooks and/or Atak helicopters.

Let us agree to disagree!
