There is a fine and somewhat hidden information in this article, whereby it is mentioned that the “Özgür” project is in full production mode and deliveries of first two block 30 planes will be made this year. It is also...
Most expensive Block 70 F16 costs around 60 million dollars a piece. But the price of the plane varies according to the variant being bought and the “country” buying it.
Amraam aim 120D costs 1.1 million dollars
JSOW costs 720 thousand dollars
JDAM kits cost 40thousand dollars
Aim 9X costs...

The plan is to deliver 3 ships in 36 months.
Production of the ships will effectively...

From times quoted for the Typhoon Missile, we can easily say that this missile travels most of its course at hypersonic speeds. If one considers this missile to be flying at a suppressed trajectory at around 70-80km and travel for 561km; total flight distance should be in around 700km. To have...

TF6000 is a military class engine. It is not really suitable for passenger aircrafts. Military class engines are low bypass engines that are more akin to turbojets. Passenger planes use turbofans with high bypass ratios. Not taking in to account the certification issues, a passenger aircraft’s...
If you watch the interview again you will see that he corrects himself afterwards and says, we want it to land and take off from a ship “ like” Anadolu.
Not necessarily TCG Anadolu itself. (After 1.00.00 min.)
The idea of adding an afterburner to be supersonic is good. But ;
1.is it really what this plane needs?
2. How viable is it for a flying wing to go supersonic?
3. Why is it that no flying wing ever built, is supersonic?
If this is a deep strike bomber akin to B2 but smaller, then high subsonic...
These are going to be great additions to our naval force. But…
According to this site

the first ship was supposed to be launched July 2023 and delivered to the Navy in June 2024.
It looks like there is...
TB3 should have a much slower approach speed than TB2. Baykar must have designed TB3 very much like you have explained; a very slow landing aircraft reminiscent of WW2 carrier operated planes.
TB3 will be a very important part of the LHD’s self defence as well as projecting force well away from...
Many jets can be made to take off from TCG-Anadolu. Trick is to land them.
A plane like KE , for example, with a weight of 6000kg MTOW, will find it more than challenging to safely land on this ship without external assistance. Even with assistance, the large aft lift of TCG-Anadolu will be...

Now, this is what I call using the right weapon from the right platform. A supersonic ground attack missile fired from Akinci with a range of over 140km is going to be a force multiplier for this drone.
When fired...
I think you need to re investigate this issue in detail again.
Atomic Hydrogen is very reactive. But…
Molecular Hydrogen, H2 is very stable especially at room temperature.
To obtain atomic hydrogen you need to pass molecular hydrogen through temperatures in excess of 2500K
Stored hydrogen is...
PD-222ST turbo diesel engine has been specifically developed for high take off power to assist TB-3 like drones to take off at short distances. It has less power output at 30000ft than PD-170 however. As you rightly point out it is ideal for naval use...
When I first saw this picture I thought;
Wow they have done their homework right;
As well as two things that were very noticeable:
1. Aerodynamic body and a possible high lift potential
2. Really robust looking, improved landing gears.
There should be no problem with take off from a ski lift...
Dear members please stop attacking other members just because their views do not conform to yours. If you do not agree with a post put your views politely and without mocking your fellow member. Or just ignore instead of being confrontational.
Any more of this kind of behaviour will attract...
It is not understandable what they have written here. It doesn’t make sense.
GaN modules were already supposed to be produced for Murad radar. In fact early this year this radar was supposed to be subjected to tests.
Now they are stating that it will be 2024 before GaN modules are used on Murad...

Dear members, keep the language of the forum civil and refrain from being confrontational.
Criticism is part of healthy discussions as long as it is done in a civil and acceptably polite language. Convey your views in a manner that is not rude and confrontational and also make sure that it does...
