It was preferable to carry the Kalkan II radar on a mast to increase its range against low targets, as well as reduce the number of vehicles by making the system Compact like VL-Mica

I mean to reduce the deployment time of the Hisar-O+ system as well as increase its range, if the radar is mounted on a truck it will be much faster in the process of transportation (High mobility) and deploymentYou mean like the HISAR-A with MAR AESA radar

If it's a necessity, I'm sure there isn't any reason why it can't be done.
I understand what you mean. Trucks would be more versatile and mobile, while Armoured vehicles would need to be transported to destination and such. It could be useful to have a solution where the radar range is extended using truckmounted. But trucks are easier targets for UCAV launched attacks and even amateurish solutions can be quite nasty.I mean to reduce the deployment time of the Hisar-O+ system as well as increase its range, if the radar is mounted on a truck it will be much faster in the process of transportation (High mobility) and deployment
I am going to guess people are going to say SiperDoes Turkey have a project to counter hypersonic missiles? Russians have just tested Zircon again. The Chinese have a load of them.

Northrop Grumman is working on groundbreaking solutions to help defeat modern hypersonic missiles in various phases of flight.www.northropgrumman.com
30mm Goalkeeper could do something against Brahmos?I am going to guess people are going to say Siper
And we’ll likely end up argue about the speed and interception possibilities
In all honesty, you don’t really need kinetic energy of the fragments to stop Brahmos or any missile. The fragments create a wall that the missile hits. So the missile’s kinetic energy is enough for the fragments to destroy the outer shell of the missile and break it up.30mm Goalkeeper could do something against Brahmos?
I dont think our fragments of 35mm Gökdeniz have enough kinetic energy to stop a hypersonic missile.
Could it be the reason PLAN ships have type 730 CIWS?
Point defense is easier than wide-area defense (in terms of interception). S400 does a wide-area defense and intercepts hypersonic missiles targeting elsewhere, ESSM or other self-defense weapons intercepts missiles targeting the point which is they are located upon.Brahmos is a supersonic missile. ESSM can probably handle that. But Brahmos 2 still in development stage is a hypersonic missile. That will need a lot of head scratching to stop it! (Russians claim they can stop hypersonic missiles, with s400)
Turkey wanted to but US refused to allocate funds to integrate it into the NATO network. There was also issues regarding tech transfer.why did turks bought cheaper HQ9P
same power as S 300 newset model and us made patriot why S 400 very expensive when HQ was also best in its class
HQ-9 deal really deserved attention as it's not just analog of s300. İt has active radar seekers, AESA radar, passive radars and ToT.why did turks bought cheaper HQ9P
same power as S 300 newset model and us made patriot why S 400 very expensive when HQ was also best in its class
Honestly though, with no tech transfers in sight, I feel that the S400 deal would turn into a hoaxKremlin Spokesperson Dmitri Peskov announced that a second S-400 Air Defense System shipment to Turkey is planned by the Russian Federation.
"Türkiye'ye ikinci bir S-400 sevkiyatını planlıyoruz"

Because it was never about any tech transfers or acquiring experience, it was basically blackmail by Russia. Turkey needs to hand off these S-400s as soon as AKP leaves and Russia (hopefully) no longer has major politicians by the balls. They have provided virtually zero benefit thus far. They aren't even activated IIRC so they are literally just sitting there and as drones hammered home over the past few years, AA defense systems are worse than useless without air superiority which the F-35, for all its flaws, would've actually provided.Honestly though, with no tech transfers in sight, I feel that the S400 deal would turn into a hoax
My main argument for possessing S400s rather than F35s has always been the tech transfer and the fact that Turkey may gain a nationally built, fairly advanced, deep, long ranged, and extensive missile defense system which it greatly needs rn compared to expensive fighter jets
But with no tech transfers, why is Turkey buying a second batch of S400s?

I think it was probably shared a few pages back. It was decided not to share the technology transfer issues regarding the S400 with anyone, with the decision of the two countries. Turkey just does not want to bring nonsense conversations of so called S400 and F35 experts who are far from reality, commenting according to their submissive ideological positions and incapable of reading the geopolitical agenda of "ally" countries that doesn't hesitate to play embargo card against Turkey at every geopolitic disagreement, to its agenda again, both inside and outside of the country. It is not a logical thing to talk about every single subject about these systems anymore. In a country where there are so many American and Russian wannabe experts, the state does not have a say in these matters anymore.
