What an eye opening interview from STM's Güleryüz. He clearly tells that he and his company have no clear idea of what future drone warfare looks like. https://gdh.digital/stm-fpv-drone-sistemleri-hakkinda-ne-dusunuyor-101785/ "The war environment shows us this: Instead of products with a much...

I had to get it.. I love it. Never been a patch collector and just looked at them from a distance but now I have to get this guy some friends... :D Photo really doesn't do justice to the red and the gold outlines, they are very shiny under light.

And then we come back to "survivability onion". It's an ancient concept and this image is from the FCS program that was cancelled 15 years ago. FPVs or not, nothing has changed.

Huh, Fidan met with political head of PMF in Ankara.

Going by first flight news. Per Doğut, all preliminary tests for first flight is complete and all that is left to do is to take to the skies now.

Doesn't make it outdated. Space is also part of the gök. This patch is for a Turkish audience and HvKK and TAI not using İstikbal Göklerdedir for the first flight of their first fighter jet is literally unthinkable. Few years later, Kaan will look lovely with Atatürk's signature, as is tradition...

First flight patch also ready.

This is a great example. Because at the same time dismounted mechanized infantry is also the backbone of modern maneuver warfare that all countries employ 🤭 We literally can't have wars without it but they are also indeed the most vulnerable unit type out there.

And going back to tanks of the future, when you put 4 AESA radars on an armored vehicle and an APS that costs what, 5-6 million dollars?, putting enough non reactive and composite plates that can stop a RPG-29 is basically a necessity. It needs to be able to stop dumbest short range rockets as...

eh, give me another Korean MIC guy and i'll follow it

Koreans are already offering a jammer on the K2EX so yeah.

You still need firepower to help move the wedge forward, and lots of it. And nothing has been able to replace a dart flying at Mach 5 or a 120mm HE round being fired at Mach 4. And best way to carry the gun that can fire these at those speeds is a tracked vehicle, and you want it armored so that...

Armor have been attacked by weapons it can't resist since the first Mark I tanks rolled over at Somme in 1916. Never ending battle between armor and anti armor is still inconclusive. In 2024, you still need tanks to advance past enemy positions.

It's coming. I wonder what Sisi thinks about it.

Roketsan working on the laser guided L-OMTAS. Maybe they will finally replace all cold war era atgms. With some work, they could even update the TOW launchers to fire OMTAS tbh. https://www.savunmasanayist.com/roketsandan-dusuk-maliyetli-yeni-tank-avcisi-lomtas/

Well within Akıncı's capabilities tho. From 2021: "The AKINCI Attack Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) flew for 13 hours and 24 minutes with a payload of 1,360 kilograms. It was also noted that the AKINCI TİHA carried a penetrating bomb (NEB) developed locally by TÜBİTAK SAGE under the fuselage...

Moved most of the new info and discussion on the new carrier program to a new thread. From now on, this is the new general thread for carrier, LHD(including Anadolu), LPD, LST, LCT and every other amphibious ship vessel news, programs and discussion for Turkish Navy. Thank you.

F-4 near Zap. Where Akıncı?

And you always miss Occam's razor. Is there anything you can say that this crash wasn't a crash but an assassination? 2 experienced pilots from an American charter airline with thousands of hours of flight time between them, a fully loaded helicopter, at night time with bad visibility. Please do...
