Well pakistan has a long range a2a missile and we merged our A2A programs, so like could it involve a new joint long range a2a missile rather than siper based system?View attachment 70550

Could we see A 2A Variant of SIPER like Americans did with SM-6?
View attachment 70552
For comparison with Gökdoğan and Bozdoğan

Mate, get your information from more, much more reliable sources. Where the hell it says we merged our A2A missile programs with Pakistan. Pakistan is no where that close defence partner of Turkey.Well pakistan has a long range a2a missile and we merged our A2A programs, so like could it involve a new joint long range a2a missile rather than siper based system?

Yes collaborate but where does it say Pakistan has a A2A missile?It was actually reported here.
Official sources stating that,Turkey and Pak will collaborate on A2A missiles.
GIDS has Faaz-2 or is working on it, not sure on statusYes collaborate but where does it say Pakistan has a A2A missile?
They need our help not the other way around.
The status is zero,they have a website with some 3D pictures and some specs thats it,nothing more.GIDS has Faaz-2 or is working on it, not sure on status

I don’t think that we need something like the AIM-174 when we already have Gökhan in the pipeline.
The Question is, can the Range of Gökhan increased till to 400 km to use it against high Value Assests like Tanker, AWACS &MPA ?
Well, neutralizing an air target 400 km away is questionable to begin with. Is there any evidence that shows that it is possible ?
The range is not the question. SIPER SAM as a2a missile will fulfill your inventory when your a2a missiles are low. One ammunition multiple platforms.The Question is, can the Range of Gökhan be increased to 400 km, to use it against high Value Assets like Tanker, AWACS &MPA ?
A very interesting article on hypersonic missiles and HGVs.![]()
Hypersonic weapons are mediocre. It’s time to stop wasting money on them.
Probably the best performance of hypersonic weapons is their ability to burn through money at 10X the speed of sound. For the rest, it's mediocre.thebulletin.org
Some of the bullet points are:
- Hypersonic missiles are not really a solution to all as it is made out to be.- They spend a very long time (around 30 minutes) in dense atmosphere which affects their speed detrimentally, as well as the difficulties with high surface temperatures that they have to tackle.- Existing weapon systems such as ballistic missiles already travel at hypersonic speeds, and spend much less time in atmosphere.- What distinguishes hypersonic weapons from these weapons is therefore their ability to glide at low altitudes, staying within the atmosphere for most of their flight.- Manoeuvring HGV’s is not that easy. It also detracts from their speed.- Because drag slows hypersonic weapons, they are no faster—and can actually take longer to reach their targets—than other warhead delivery systems, such as ballistic missiles flown on depressed trajectories.- Hypersonic missiles and HGVs are not as stealthy as they are made out to be and are easily detectable and can be engaged and intercepted by Terminal Missile Defence Systems.- HGVs and Hypersonic missiles, especially scramjet powered ones, cost more than ballistic missiles.- Manoeuvrable Reentry Vehicles (MaRV) mounted on ballistic missiles can reach their targets providing the combination of speed, accuracy, range, and survivability (without being intercepted) , just as good as hypersonic counterparts.
Reading between the lines of this article, one can not help but think that we are probably in the right direction with the development of high speed ballistic missiles like our Bora, Tayfun and Cenk. Thus logically, our next stage of development could be in to MaRVs. After all Iran and Pakistan have them too.
