Big news! I have so many questions.

KMC-U with Pars İzci 6x6 to enter service with TSK. I presume for tests in small numbers?

Wonder what does the package re E-7Ts entail.

Unrelated but interesting. USMC put a single MK-41 strike cell to a JLTV based NMESIS UGV and plan to launch Tomahawks from it???

They aren't. That's Repkon's infantry grenade launcher RDS40-MGL so this UGV has 12 shots before it needs to be reloaded by hand.. Most of the UGVs are pretty lackluster, not gonna lie...

We're gonna have to wait for Fatih's archive again for actual workable photos. That is a Starlink antenna in the middle. There's a customer up north waiting for such a thing.

It should be configurable by customer needs. What's more interesting is what i presume to be Roketsan anti submarine rocket system next to the 25mm gun. Looks like they also went for a more conventional 8x ASMs, with no room to add more.

I think this is the big surprise from Gürbağ that was alluded to. MM-GIDS Short Range AD. 20mm M197 gun, 8km range MANPAD, and anti-drone kamikaze drones.

ASFAT AS-3600 64 VLS ?!

Re Gürz, Thinking about it, I wonder how is it supposed to be used. As a standalone unit or part of a system? Where is the crane? No way 2 people can reload the Bozdoğans after the 4 are fired. Needs a truck with a crane. If it is to be standalone, it only has 4 short-mid range missiles.

How would that work, physically? As ballistic missiles in question won't be that slim to fit inside the regular cells, multiple cells would need to be removed to put in a one bigger cell, right? Unless TF-2000 goes for a 64-96 cell setup that would be an important reduction in SAMs.

Got me thinking. Digital camo on it very much resembles the current Ukrainian one. Ukraine would love such a system. Wonder if we will see it up north in the near future.

yup, that was what i'm alluding to. Don't think Barbaros CMDS is ready yet.

Çakır to be exported to an unnamed country. Possibly with Akıncı? It's great that defense industry can now stand on its two feet without army support, but can we please buy for ourselves as well?

Roketsan Burç Short Range AD System. 4 fixed AESA radars, 20mm Gun, 8 Sungurs on 2 pods on the sides, built on top of FNSS İzci 8X8. And they already made the first firing test for the gun. Looks like another small UAV/kamikaze drone killer.

You need to modify the fuselage to conform it to the aircraft itself, which creates a new version of the aircraft. You would also need to modify the existing aircraft to fit it and we have hundreds of UAVs. Unless we are directly talking about a very specialized aircraft like Anka-I, most of...

Is that a 20mm M197 gun? I presume also Sungur MANPAD.

ASFAT to showcase a new frigate concept called AS-3600. Possibly enlarged I Class?

I'll be the first to say this when we have these in service in needed numbers, not before though.

You would use a different, much smaller launcher for missiles that small, not MIDLAS or Mk-41.
