In 2022 AIRS(low altitude radar system), multi-function fire control radar of Siper, EIRS(early warning radar system), airborne AESA radar will be delivered all of them have GaN modules. GaN revolution is happening. TR is one of the few nations who can produce state of the art AESA radars with...

Really? Thats news to me.

FCS is completely renewed. There are also some other improvements i can't remember now.

The thing is there is still no powerpack. Korean solution needs to be tested which will take a good amount of time. Integration of Korean powerpack plus 10000km mobility tests will take a good amount of time so production will be stopped regardless.

I don't know if they are getting MUTK but I know the Philippines is getting the complete package. The contract includes all the goodies like weapons and support. It is like a US FMS deal but all terms are ticked and confirmed so what you see is very close to the possible maximum price.

Probably with the power packs we already have. It is good news it means BMC gained the ability to produce the Altay tank. It took roughly 3 years for them from November 2018 to December 2021.

Even half of this deal is too much. Let's take a close look at the MMSC deal; Which of those subsystems will you sack to lower the costs? Not many. You may probably shorten the support deal. You can buy less ammo for MK41 and RAM MK2 systems. I don't see this deal can ever be lower than 5...

Interesting the US is likely to upgrade 4 Hydra class Meko frigates of Hellenic Navy for 2.5 billion $ and Greece is looking to acquire 4 MMSC frigates for 6.9 billion $. BTW those prices are the maximum prices if every term in the deal is confirmed.

As far as I know, it is the first GaN-based radar to enter the inventory so the GaN era is officially started.

TR is working on ramjet propulsion for over a decade completely on its own. Ramjet missiles are not magically popping out.

Greek debts are guaranteed by EU (mostly Germany and to some extend France). Who is guaranteeing Turkish debt? No one. Regarding the US debt dollar is the reserve money of the world and who is gonna collect that debt when the US decides not to pay?

UAE can buy %25 of Aselsan from the stock market. %75 belongs to the TSKGV foundation but those shares can be sold via presidency.

The deal is worth 700 million TL plus 85 million $(~140million$). Deliveries will be made between 2024-2026. The dollar part of the deal equals %20 of the product. (guesstimate) so we are producing %80 of the product for 700 million TL and outsourcing %20 and paying 85 million $.

I expect big success from the VLP vaccine.

It seems like the Batu engine and transmission will be coupled and put on the bench test as a single unit. By the end of 2022 or early 2023 integration on the Altay mobility test prototype might start if there are no problems. After that 10000km mobility tests will start. This timetable should...

Total weight will come down. Armata weighs around 50 tons its protection is on par with western tanks. Its expensive though compared to cheap eastern block tanks.

There is no need for 4 men anymore advanced situational awareness systems and autoloaders will replace extra men. Crew size will decrease to 3 and 2. Weight will also come down to under 50 tons. Tanks will be accompanied by UGVs.

Days of 65+tons 4 man tanks are over.

MKE gun barrel has a life of 2500 shots. Super Rapids barrel has around 1700-1800. MKE gun is completely digital. This means it has encoders and servos rather than hydraulics(in fact MKE gun has both hydraulic and servos in case servos fail) super rapid doesn't have that and it is not a...

It has a longer barrel life compared to super rapid. It has fully digitalized controls, it is fully integrated with Genesys Advent. It has more precise stabilization and less deviation at the full range. It has the ability to use both seawater and freshwater as a coolant. Seawater causes many...
