Mr. Fuat Tosyalı: "The mass production of New Altay will be carried out in the factory to be established on the land in Ankara which BMC bought with its own resources. The land in Karasu was returned to the state"

Sorry for my ignorance such topic

But how can that system even work ? I mean most APS systems are inspired from the Israeli Trophy system . the Turkish system looks new and weird . Any video that explain how the interception work ?
Just like SAMs , Radars , computer , missile.
U can see 4 squares at Altay thats Radar and will find anti Tank missile from 500 meters than some computer will make calculation and lunch akkor to destroy ATGM.

I see some harsh statements on youtube channel of Kadir Baba. Are these statements true? He really seems knowlegable on this topic and his statements made me pretty sad before. I see this tank as a version 1 and having such bold statements is pretty much negligible on my side but at least I want to know that these statements are true or not.

I don't know man but he makes some valid remarks. It is true what he says about the tickness of the armor by looking at these pictures, it is easy to have a solid idea. However the composition of the the armor plates inside still is a mystery.

The first time I see him but he absolutely seems to belong to the lower spectrum of the Dunning–Kruger-effect, deliberate or not. It was kind of fun to listen for a few seconds but please spare us his next video.

Aselsan CEO: "Very soon we will anounce a great modernization work."
Will be interesting to hear how many m603 tanks that will be modernized! When did Turkey recieve them? I read after the gulf war so around the early 90s, but i dont know if it was several batches of deliveries?
