TR Missile & Smart Munition Programs

[UkroTurk]

AFAIK they would produce Rolling missile with microwave seekers for Gökdeniz ER. But Göksur using Bozdoğan A2A missiles. Not same

 

[TheInsider]

Is he talking about SOM missiles used as sea mines or am I losing grip?

That is an insane capability. Especially in the Sea of Islands.

Sungur-ER will have both IIR and RF seekers and a longer range. No microwave seeker is planned for Sungur.

Is it possible to adapt Sungur-ER for manpad?

Turkish RAM replacement, most probably won’t have a rolling airframe. The only reason the US RAM rolls around its axis is because the interferometer it has on board can only work on one plane. By rotating the missile they achieve 360degree coverage for the dual IR seeker.
Turkish one will have 4 IR seekers. Hence omitting the need for rotation.

RIM-116 missile : Rolling Airframe Missile

Turkish RAM alternative design.:

This above design was shared by Roketsan as a possible missile for LEVENT point defence system, which was also contemplated using an upgraded Sungur missile.
But then again a Bozdogan based CIWS point defence system would do the job just as effectively.

No, it is too heavy but it can be mounted on light 4x4 vehicles which might make it a hell of a SHORAD.

My ultimate manpads would be something like the following:

A Sungur-ER like missile carried by a two-man team on a Dirt Bike or small ATV. The missile is launched from a lightweight pedestal which is mounted on the bike and can be rotated 360 degrees manually. This way the missile can be made longer and heavier than a MANPAD while still being operated by a 2-man team.

GÖKSUR uses the BOZDOĞAN missile, developed by TÜBİTAK-SAGE and updated according to the air defense needs of naval platforms, as an interceptor missile. GÖKSUR Close Air Defense Missile System is being developed in the product family setup and offers a solution with three different configurations with a modular design approach.

-Multiple Target Interception Capability,
-stand alone and/or Platform Integrated Operation,
-terminal guadiance with data link

Does Bozdoğan Datalink capability?or next gen Bozdoğans will have?
I think current Bozdoğan has queuing system apart from SUNGURs. Computer could calculate possible target position and send Bozdoğan over to target, isn't it?

When tested in 2021, Bozdogan did not have data link capability. But was planned to have it when it was time for serial production. Also LOAL (Lock On After Launch) capability will be imparted to Bozdogan, increasing its engagement range. Having a comprehensive off-boresight firing capability, Bozdogan can be a very effective WVR AAM. (Ability to shoot at targets that are not in pilot’s angle of vision.)

President ERDOĞAN Announces Successful Test of BOZDOĞAN WVR Air-to-Air Missile

On April 14, 2021, President Recep Tayyip ERDOĞAN announced that the BOZDOĞAN IIR guided within visual range (WVR) air-to-air missile developed by youth Turkish technicians and engineers under GÖKTUĞ Project has successfully destroyed its target (TUSAŞ`s ŞİMŞEK high-Speed target Drone) during...

Datalink capability !

Göksur will be more capable then RAM. Kinda horizontal launched Hisar A

Which is basically these turrets from Aselsan but with Sungur instead of Stinger:

What’s in the box?

For now stinger.And Sungur in the future.

 

[begturan]

Ey ASELSAN Ey Roketsan, Please decide the final solution. There are Gökdeniz ER, LEVENT and now GÖKSUR!!

İt seems there is no rolling missile with microwave seeker.

You can notice the shaped cells for fins of Bozdoğan missiles.

Allaam yapıp yapıp duruyorlar, birini de bir gemiye koysalar artık.

Anyway Great news.

Thats exactly what we thinking.... ohhh it is really getting bored...

There is one more detail here: the launch sequence of sea mines and air-launched torpedoes takes place at low altitude and low speed. With this type of system, the minelaying platform does not need to fly over a strip many times and all of the mines can be released in one go, and the minelaying aircraft does not even need to overfly the minefield. Aircraft can mine at a safe distance and at medium/high altitude. If we can integrate the same type kits into lightweight torpedoes, our maritime patrol aircrafts' deterrent capabilities can take a leap forward.

As a result of our long-lasting but fast work, we have reached the test firing stage. Updates coming soon...(GÜRBAĞ Defence)

[UkroTurk]

"Off-Boresight" missile technology means that before launch the missile's radar or IR sensor can be cued to a target considerably off the nose of the launcher"

My question is : Could UMTAS and SUNGUR be cued to target before launch just with the software upgrades? İf yes , Turkish Navy's warships could launch UMTAS as well as SUNGUR vertically using data from Radars, isn't it?

Or the missile needs onboard inertial navigation system (INS) to navigate towards the target?

I don't think Hellfire has INS but somehow it can be vertically launched.

How Hellfire can be launched from VLS, crazy.
@Yasar Dear again me asking

 

[Afif]

If Umtas is laucned vertically its range will be reduced by 2/4.
