Raytheon could have put 4 microwave seekers as we did in Levent but they put 2 MW seekers and they made the missile spinning. There must be a reason.
Anyway I wanted just try explaining Bozdoğan and AIM-9Xare not less agile than RIM-116.
I meant RIM-116 has just one structural advantage , it...
RIM-116 has just one advantage: it spins as it is rolling airframe missile .
Spinning helps stabilize the missile's flight path, similar to how a spinning top maintains its balance. This gyroscopic effect reduces deviations caused by external forces.
While the spinning itself doesn't directly...
Ukraine has flown its first combat missions with an F-16

İf AIM-9x is useless, we should throw Hisar A trashcan:)
Bozdoğan with data link could waste much more threats than Levent.
I would say Microwave seekers are outdated since IIR antiship missiles are more popular like NSM and SOM.
Good to know i am not alone who noticed the form of canopy.
Even Tolga Özbek underlined this fact.
"Görüntülerde hava aracının üst bölümüne savaş uçaklarında olduğu gibi bir kanopi çizimi yapıldığı dikkat çekti. Kanopi, kokpitin üzerinde yer alan cam."
There is enough space for a pilotseat...
Is there an empty space for pilot seat and canopy?
Why didn't the first prototype have this cover?
@Yasar_TR
Can you notice the difference?

Let's keep dreaming manned...

If SOM-j is launched from KE, why will need ANKA-3?
Why loading SOM-J in KE which is supposed to be unmanned fighter while we are having unmanned stealth bomber?
Can someone draw it manned?😁
Would not be good having also manned version while both sharing same parts, same production line and softwares.
Mini Stealth Supersonic Fighter sounds to me reasonable.
