Last time a similar question was directed at Tubitak-Sage MD , he replied that it will be ready to be operational for I-Class frigates. (TCG-Istanbul is going to be ready next year)

How about the radar to complement it in such long ranges? Where is that going to be? I am no radar expert. But if I remember correctly it is the accuracy of tracking at longer ranges that is the stumbling block on air defence missiles not the actual range a missile can achieve. So you need a...

F35 is an over ambitious plane to say the least. The program cost is the most ever for any plane ever developed in the world. Quote: The F-35 program is expected to cost taxpayers a total of $1.7 trillion across its lifecycle, according to the Pentagon’s Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation...

Just because you hava a list of some ”semi conductor” producing companies that doesn’t include a Turkish one is not proof that the GaN chips are not produced in house for Aselsan. Your list doesn’t differentiate between GaN and Silicone by the way. Here are two articles published in Turkish 5...

As the English say: “How long is a piece of string? “ There is no guarantee that US will not put the brakes on the LM2500 gas turbines. Or Germans will not pressurise MTU not to sell the Diesel engines. But to date they have not shown any inclination about extending their stealth embargoes to...

When Turkey wanted to use GaN tech, a lot of components were withheld by main producers. So it was decided to produce this tech in house. Infrastructure to produce GaN products was completed in Turkey by 2014. By 2016 , Aselsan started producing GaN based transistors. It took them over 10 years...

That doesn’t help the man on the street that is living hand to mouth. His money and his wage is not protected. His buying power has already diminished. This is only helping people who have foreign currency accounts and brave enough to wish to return to TL. Minimum 3 months , tied in with no...

Let us not be too pedantic by being stuck on the “tense“ the sentence was formed. @TheInsider is correct in saying TFX to be a better plane of the two. Instead of ”is” , he should have used “will be”. But that doesn’t change the fact that the TFX is being planned to be a much more developed and...

Those headlines are enough to cause a stir!

If the weight of CATS compromises TB2 so much, how come it has now the new CATS and 4 x MAM-L under it’s belly instead of the 2 x MAM-Ls it was carrying originally? Surely something has improved!!

The HİSAR O-RF Missile is a missile with virtually the same physical structure as the HİSAR-O Missile. It is not yet in production and is still in development stage. They have replaced the IIR seeker head of the Hisar-O with a RF seeker head. Due to warming issues in the atmosphere, the IIR...

To tell you the truth, no matter how many times I read the article, I can‘t see a relation with ARAT and a drone being mentioned there. That doesn’t mean it can not be used in one. But the article does not say that to me. High altitude operation is not synonymous with missiles that has to...

Just to add: All these could have been done if we had the F35s , like we were having the SOM-J integration. But for each, we will have had to pay soooo much money. And we would have had to send them to LM to integrate it. And they would know all the ins and outs about these missiles etc and how...
