We have Kızılelma and Anka3 coming up in the stealth department. Iran, Syria and even Russia are not hard to deal with. We need weapons to deal with the hard ones and we are making them.
The number of Starlink satellites has already reached 10240 and they are flying at low altitude above us. They can do D2C communication meaning direct to cellular two way communication. They can tap into your device anywhere in the world and do the worst thing you can expect. So no foreign...
Seeing tiny pagers and radios exploding and taking lives imagine what F35 can do to us. There is no use to having F35 for us or any other foreign made weapon for that matter.
I want to make a correction, while the Minister of Telecommunication talks about a first signal there is actually some 5G accessibility in Türkiye which I can tell when I look at signal maps.
Turkcell Map
Turktelekom Map
I guess it is because we want to use Turkish made equipment for the infrastructure. I don't know how much of the system can be made locally but I know that there are initiatives to make them.
Wages do not explain much. Baykar have lots of cash on hand and can experiment a lot. It sounds like Elon Musk style doesn't it, lots of cash and the will to make achievements.
Longitude is vertical segmentation and is irrelevant in this case as distance from the Equator is what matters because the Earth rotates around the Equator. Latitude is horizontal segmentation and indicates the distance from the Equator.
The launch capacity depends of the launch site. Firefly launches from Vandenberg in California which is at the same latitude as the south coasts of Cyprus. If a rocket is launched from an equatorial site it can probably carry 40% more payload. A 50 ton launcher is likely to be a 30m tall rocket...
Low Earth Orbit satellites have to travel around Earth to stay in orbit therefore a constellation of them have to cover entire Earth circumference but not the entire Earth latitudes. This defines an area between two circles on different latitudes. Probably an area between 60° North and 10° South...
Older systems need like 30 geostationary satellites at 20.000 km altitude to cover the entire globe. But newer system may mean that they will do a similar performance at 550 km altitude. This means a larger number of satellites at lower orbit hence the 100 satellites. Lower orbit is cheaper to...
Like how, there are hundreds of developers but they don't publish. You don't even get to know what weight they take off with. Please provide sources if you know otherwise.
