Turkish continuous detonation wave engine prototype https://www.defenceturk.net/tubitak-sagede-bir-basarili-atesleme-daha The first ignition of the engine happened yesterday.

Regardless we need piston engines up to 450hp where piston engines start becoming so heavy that their advantages against turbines don't justify using them.

The first F-16 block 30 will start receiving the Özgür modernization sometime this year. F-16 block 30T will use existing AN/APG-68v9 until MURAD is completed. MURAD will probably be tested for a year on the AKINCI platform tests will start this year. A prototype MURAD will also be integrated...

In the picture he posted, the artillery shell is nearly parallel to the ground so the range looks to be close but 2-3km might be an exaggeration. The hybrid powertrain is in development and testing. It is more like an R&D project with no orders. If satisfactory results can be obtained the scope...

Risk management. SIPER is an ambitious long-range national air-defense system project. A lot of things can go wrong with that.

MURAD AESA radar will be tested on Bayraktar Akıncı. Modifications have been made to the Akıncı to become a test bed. Akıncı will be able to send real-time big data to the ground station. This will be the first of its kind in the world. Everybody uses test planes to test radars. UAVs can stay in...

Roketsan: You can literally touch Atmaca and Çakır missiles if you raise your hand when they are cruising.

Maybe they are testing the direct shot capability of the system.

"Özgür is nearly as good as Viper" nope Özgür is better than Viper. The "possible" deal involves second-hand tranche 1s and 2s and upgrading them. It won't happen what we are doing is asking around if what we want is possible. We have a big list of conditions that is very unlikely to be met.

This decision also means we are getting somewhere with the AESA radar project.

I hope the tests were done with the national powerpack. Our current production rate is 3 or 6 per year if I'm not mistaken. The shots are extremely accurate.

Lavrov will visit Turkiye on the 8th of June.

Motor Sich is not destroyed. A few missiles won't destroy a big campus but I doubt people still works there. The first flight of TB3 will happen by the end of this year or early next. The first flight of the MIUS will happen next year.

Anka-S can stay airborne for 50+hours with this amount of fuel consumption.

According to some reports TAF hit the Lafarge cement factory which provides cement to the YPG and provided cement to the ISIS in the past.

HPV is the future. We should have 76mm and 127mm fire support vehicles and 155mm SPA with HPV capability. Mechanized companies should have 3x 76mm IFVs while mechanized battalions have 6-9x127mm this will add another layer to the armored warfare. Those guns can provide air defense as well as...

Too early to say that. The size of the reservoir might not be worth investing.

Phase I of the operation is a go. Tal Rifat and Manbij is loading. Tal Rifat and Manbij has Arab population. People of Manbij held demonstrations several times against YPG.
