ASELSAN: With this integration, Bayraktar KIZILELMA will gain the capability to carry up to eight TOLUN P precision-guided munitions in its internal station.

Another Akıncı fighter has gone missing in Sudan.

The future of Turkish aviation 🥹🇹🇷

Let’s think simply, friends: If Kızılelma can detect an F-16 Viper from 150+ km in the air, and the F-16 Viper can only detect Kızılelma from 50–60 km, this already gives Kızılelma nearly a 100 km advantage in range. So even if it’s not fully autonomous, delays in that 100 km window...

Do you think Leonardo would integrate the ES-05 Raven radar into KIZILELMA? I believe the Gripen's radome is smaller than KIZILELMA's

I don't think it's wrong

Yesterday morning, Kızılelma reached a speed of Mach 0.9 in a test. Video coming soon. N.

Maybe they will be integrated into Eurofighters (UBAS) to enable the use of domestic munitions?

Additionally, the F-16 Özgür flew with the MURAD AESA radar on March 26, 2024. So according to open sources, the MURAD AESA radar has been operating in the air for nearly 2 years

Akıncı UCAV already made its first flight with the MURAD AESA radar on March 1, 2025. Since then, 8 months have passed — a sufficient duration for an airborne testing phase. Because Akıncı and Kızılelma share almost the same avionics systems, we are likely to see a Gökdoğan air-to-air missile...

It was seen in the test video that KIZILELMA was flying at 0.6 Mach speed

The Sadak 4T launcher weighs 175 kg, and the TOLUN munition is 150 kg. So in the latest test, KIZILELMA flew with: 2x Sadak 4T = 350 kg 2x TOLUN = 300 kg Total = 650 kg of payload. This means it could potentially carry 8x TOLUN and 2x Sadak 4T launchers, reaching a total payload of *1,470...

Maybe it will be fired with boosters for longer range?

There’s actually an overlooked detail — the new ÇAKIR missile features foldable wings, which likely means it was designed for KIZILELMA’s internal weapon bay. We might even see a test video of this very soon.

Integrated into our KIZILELMA."* 🔴 ASELSAN General Manager Ahmet Akyol: "KIZILELMA’s electro-optical surveillance system and radar system are here. These two products are of a complexity that only 2–3 companies in the world could achieve. God willing, we’ll see KIZILELMA in the inventory next...

If ASELFIR-500/600 was used in Sudan, it could easily detect air defense systems from 60–80 km away. I don’t think there’s a problem with image intelligence; on the contrary, it’s possible that long-range munitions were simply not provided to Sudan.

The best munitions for the Akıncı are the ÇAKIR and the İHA-230. If Akıncı uses these weapons effectively, it can easily surpass the TB2 in capability. However, using MAM-L with the Akıncı feels pointless and unfortunately damages its prestige. If footage emerges showing air defense systems...
