meteksan’s altimeter will be incorporated in to SOM missiles. This could be because there is an embargo on these or simply because it is a superior piece of equipment that the SOM will benefit from. The latter may be the case as this is a much sought after piece of tech in foreign markets as well.

If i recall Meteksan was developing that for Atmaca (or already been developing for SOM but it hasn't caught the serial production)
May not be a result of embargo but a local alternative is being avaliable. They would embargo the engine in first place, by the fact knowing we are trying to replace with a local one.

Nice but doesn't look very ergonomic to throw nicely, ain't the traditional round shape better to throw it like a ball?
It looks too bulky as well to be honest. This looks like the tallest grenade I've seen and has some width to it.

138x27 mm
looks like other cylindrical shaped granades.
the offensive hand grenade has dimensions of 135 mm x35mm
in my opinion it would be better if it was modular.

I prefer a simple grenade like the m67 even if it is "outdated" to be honest. Although this seems good for Special forces.
