Like I said earlier, I honestly want a "not-HÜRJET" naval HÜRJET that at least has some signature management and probably structural reinforcements to handle bigger munitions (GEZGİN, 300 ER, SOM-J......)
They are more than likely to change, but TUSAŞ going beyond statements and presenting it at SAHA EXPO little or big still means something
It is also giving us some idea on what are they going for, roughly. For example, they underline compactness and CATOBAR/STOBAR compatibility.

KALEKALIP's suppressor family, even available to KMGs
It is rare to see a Turkish firm making something this compact

Barkan 3 UGV has more than upscaling, they made some big revisions on the sensor and communication side for operator quaility of life
Maybe I did not state it (Because there has been no need to so far) but I don't take someone trying to get something severe out of my mouth on uncertain topics lightly.
Or if I was to put it in an undiplomatic and a blunt language: Don't be approaching me like that, it pisses me off.
If you...
Yeah, we all should check the posts but I'm happy that this part of the expo got attention.
There was more to it at that panel and I am scrolling around my gallery to see what else comes interesting

EJDERHA/AD 210 seems to be something more capable of handling things on its own not only with a bigger antenna but its own sensors too (That coaxial optic though :D)

Turkish MoD R&D statement regarding the whole shock and debate from YILDIRIMHAN and GÜÇHAN
"TurDef learned that both programmes had been developed under extraordinary secrecy. A source speaking to TurDef compared...
Everything is obivious but I don't want the smoke that comes with declaring what is obivious. The media-company relations in Türkiye are weird at times.

ANKA-III has some interesting options like, MURAD 100-A, KARAT, TOYGUN, LAÇİN-82, and UAV-230
Also, we are getting 8x TOLUN internally, think of the possibilities with the new variants
https://turdef.com/article/saha-expo-2026-roketsan-s-c-uas-specialised-cirit-variant
starting with further details on CİRİT C-UAS, it is actually well-optimised with new flight control algorithms and RF proximtiy fuse (Been expecting laser but hey, who cares)
30 kg, very nice very lovely size
Also, more news on CİRİT C-UAS and Mini Cruise missile, as well as some other things are coming up. After I take a rest since today has taken its toll too.
