The radar of Kaan will be better than F-35. More T/R modules More power Bigger antenna (antenna size is really important) 360-degree coverage.

It probably depends on the hangar size. Someone should have asked Temel Kotil.

I won't be surprised if KAAN's side weapon bays can carry AMRAAM class AAMs.

25" = 63.5cm. 63.5/2= 31.75cm The Hisar-N and Siper-1 missiles shouldn't have more than ~300mm diameter when the wings are folded. This looks possible to me.

According to İbrahim Sünnetçi MAN engines will be used for the last 3 ships. This engine will probably be used for the last 3 frigates. https://www.man-es.com/marine/products/four-stroke-engines/man-175d?

TF-35000 part design studies started.

Volkan is the first developed FCS. Land FCS and naval FCS differ because of how things move on the sea. Volkan is a direct predecessor of Altay FCS while TAKS is a cousin.

There are growing tensions between Armenia and Azerbaijan on the field. Armenian armed forces amassing troops near contact zones. This might be against the will of Pashinyan. Some sources say Armenia is getting ready to call Iranian troops to defend its own territory.

Wrong FCS of Altay develop with the experience gained from Leopard 1T Volkan modernization project. Later Aselsan further improved FCS of Altay after the project is vastly delayed.

For example, you know the location of an S-300 launcher 200km away. You can launch Kemankes it will go to the coordinates with its autopilot and lock on to the S-300 launcher with its ATA capability. You don't need a data link. You can use it exactly like a cruise missile. Anything closer than...

Nope only SOM-J and C1/C2 have the data-link capability.

30mm airburst ammo has limited stopping power and it is more effective against infantry and smaller drones. It also has a shorter range. 30mm has an effective range of 2000m, a nominal range of 3000m, and a maximum range of 4000m. 35mm has an effective range of 4000m...

No. It has ATA(Automatic target acquisition) mode for targets beyond 50km. It is a loitering munition with man-in-the-loop capability within a radius of 50 (soon to be 100km). Outside that range it is a cruise missile (similar to SOM) with ATA capability.

I don't think the "allies" of Ukraine want Ukraine to win the war. They want Russia to be stuck in Ukraine similar to Afghanistan. The longer you fight the more resilient Russia will be. A war of attrition is good for the allies of Ukraine, but not for Ukraine. Russia will throw more manpower...

Cenk and the sounding rocket (SR-1) have the same solid-fuel engine. The big missile (It seems like it has a 1250-1350mm diameter) we see in the video might be Tufan (Şimşek-1 launching vehicle).

İsmail Demir is demoted there is no other way to explain it. It seems like he stepped on something he shouldn't have stepped.

There is no plan to install it today, but no one is stopping us from integrating it into Atak. Right now it is for the next-gen platforms. DIRCM for fixed-wing aircraft will follow this.

According to some Temel Kotil played a role in the departure of İsmail Demir.

True, İbrahim Kalın is a known Stratfor asset. His code name was "TR 326" while the code name of Sezgin Tanrıkulu is "TR 705". The Stratfor-CIA link is undeniable. He is %100 next head of intelligence. He is getting briefings from MIT as the next head of intelligence. Fatih Kacır guaranteed his...

Turkish companies might get some contracts but i doubt they will get all 50 billion worth of projects.
