Not just on an armored vehicle but on a hybrid/electric armored vehicle. I am not well versed enough on pros or cons of it to comment but seems like an interesting detail
I feel like our companies just straight up trolling now with using more and more insane specced kamikaze drones in each new air defense test but never saying anything about the drones itself lol. This is from Alka test footage shared today
Very interesting tidbit from Aselsan 2025 activity report:
Aselfir-400 serial production deliveries to last users for utility helicopters, Gökbey and AB-412 has commenced.
We will probably see a more full Gökbey configuration soon
Most interesting concept I can think for K2 + Sivrisinek is that K2 can pass the data from it's vision based navigation + more redundant gnss to sivrisineks for ew resilient navigation and more importantly could identify and designate targets for sivrisineks with it's eo system. It would just be...
Mete Smart mini missile weights 1.3 kg and has ranges of 2 or 1.25 km when launched from Air or land. Which is a huge increase over the previously disclosed 1 km general range. If the cost is reasonable it can be a very formidable munition for slightly larger multi use drones.
But do we really need a 4000 km range, what will the extra 3000 km range over a 1000 km drone will provide for us? I would much rather take 4 small 1000 km drones than 1 4000 km one

Tayfun Block 2-A1 Canister is 3500kg and has 7200 x 1200 x 1400 mm dimensions. Block 1 has launch weight of 2300 kg and 610 mm diameter. Since I very much doubt canister alone weights 1200 kg, we could say that block 2-A1 is 20-30% heavier and also bigger.
It was not quite clear to me if the 5 times the production is happening with the new faculry that just opened or will happen when the investment that were announced today materialize. It is a good number regardless
There was a test with Murad + Toygun and I don't think Karat would draw significantly more power than Toygun so space would be the main problem I guess
