There must be ways to facilitate landing which also come with some penalties. One that quickly comes to mind is to employ larger wheels with bigger radius. Another one is to use double wheels with twice the brake surface. This way you can increase braking power but you increase the system weight...
I had been looking for a location for a spaceport in Somalia on the maps for a long time taking into account a number of considerations.
Being closest to the equator gives the advantage of rotational assist from the ground to the tune of 60% less energy required for the same payload compared...
I used to do that but there was a demand to separate the two as the map started to look too complicated. TUSAŞ colors are on this map just to indicate that those countries are addressed by another Turkish maker if not addressed by Baykar . There is a separate TUSAŞ map here and can be accessed...
You are not making sense, by your logic I would have painted the whole map already but I obviously haven't. There is a reason for every country to have or not to have acquired a drone system. Not everyone needs some and those who need them may not be aligned with the seller.
That doesn't bother me. It must be a matter of time to be materialized. Bayraktars and particularly Akıncı are the most atractive planes for any customer after all.
US MIC makes sales to the US Military at very low prices and makes the real profit selling to foreign customers. A similar concept maybe implemented in Türkiye asking for sales with a shoestring profit margin. This maybe applicable to large companies and not startups.
Waters around Turkiye are not really remote places. We may need them for overseas operations though. The gist of the talk is that they can experiment technologies on small subs before they are deployed on full size ones.
These are small subs so they can justify the cost in any case as they are cost effective to experiment with. However TN needs to expand its operational reach and this can be achieved with nuclear propulsion. Also we need the subs to be able to shoot ballistic missiles to be deterrent. We...
