Killer drones and multi-billion dollar deals: Turkey’s rapidly-growing defense industry is boosting its global clout Taken from CNBC By Natasha Turak- KEY POINTS Turkey’s revenue from overseas defense exports rose by 42% between 2020 and 2021, with foreign contracts making up as much as 90%...

Looks like it was this winter ( definitely in Turkey )

I was trying to make guesstimate about F-35s RCS. And F-35s RCS has to do with its own capability, not with the high quality of Turkish products. ( which is another matter ) But it seems you didn't comprehend. And I literally said in my post about ERIS, "It is an excellent radar with cutting...

Nope, it is the article that @Heartbang Brought up. We were disscusing in light of that. He used it as reference in his post so naturally I did too. Besides, there is nothing to accept blindly about these highly classified strategic technologies. All we can do is to make the best guesstimate...

Bro, I actually read that article before. But the thing is, as he mnetioned clearly, this chart is without taking into account ultra-modern RAM coating ( Except for the inner surface of the inlet duct, even though it was only mnZn RAM ) that F-35 has on its fuselage. I mean it is no secret US...

We should remember F-35s supposed 0.001 RCS only from the frontal angle. Ground Radars looks up at somewhat different angle than the direct frontal angle.

Well, there are some catches. 1. FCR also has to be able to provide fire control solutions At 100+km against F35. 2. In the near future NGJ is going to be integrated with F35s 3. I believe in SEAD/DEAD mission USAF can simply overwhelm the adversary's interceptors.

Bro, it could be that. But the thing is, for IIR missile like bozdogan I am not sure of the seeker would survive the heating beyond 60km. For example, MICA RF has range up to 80km but IIR variant's range limited to 60km because of its seeker. Anyway, 50/60km would an insane range for gokdogan...

@dBSPL excellent post. Mostly, i agree with you assessment. 6th gen is not as big leap as 5th gen platforms were from 4th gen. And also i think Tempset and FCAS should be consider as 5.5 platforms. And it should be possible for MMU to match Tempset and FCAS capabilites with similar avionics...

Can you please provide any source for that? That would be extraordinary if it is true.

Duh.🙃

Hehe, he mixed up the names.😁

Bro, AIM-120B is 50km. MICA is 60km.

Our newly inducted light tank is VT-5 with 105mm gun. Best in its class. Can fire both 105mm Chinese as well as NATO ammunitions. It is unlikely that we are going to switch to western origin 120mm MBT for our old tank replacement. I think we will go with the next gen Chinese option. (...

Well, we will worry about these later. Bacause, probably nothing is coming before 2030 anyway for type59 replacement. ( For now I just hope they can implement the plan for 2x more VT-5 regiment before 2030 )

I think TB-3 would be able to carry out stand off strike as well as limited Anti ship role with KUZGUN family. @TheInsider

Excellent news, i guess if it was completed couple of years ago we could have order these instead of Thales GM radars.

I don't think army is going to buy MBT-2000 for replacement. ( old stuff, specially considering our next gen tank will be in Service for next 30 years ) As I said before, MBT-3000/VT-4 is within our reach in terms of cost, ( around $5 millions per unit ) weight (50/52 tons ) and easy...

Indeed, but there is a system god put in place. Nothing happens like that. You are just getting excited for no reason.

By 2026 Siper block II right? I am wondering if it will be a kinetic interceptor with altitude control thrusters like MIM-104 pac-3 or Aster 30 block 1 NT.
