1. Pic Kalkan 100g on toyota

Is there anything that hasn't been put on a Toyota truck at this point? Few more years and it is going to have a shout at being the most versatile vehicle ever.

Aselsan Uav interceptor likely autonomous (detect and intercept all in one)

I wonder why they put AVCI from Skydagger there? Does that mean it is compatible?

Are those Skydagger drones tough? It doesn't look like theirs to me:

Almost all interceptors drones look somewhat similar right now at any rate.

Bloody hell, I missed the Waldo lol well spotted mate. It is weird that it is just sitting there by itself if it is compatible, I would've expected Aselsan to show at least one of them launched on their mock-up as well.

This is the only thing that doesn't make sense and has me scratching my head. If the aim is to show others we're this and that. why the hell reveal for all the world to see?

If it were real then it makes sense to show it. Take the context of something like syria, it creates a much bigger deterrent against the isrealis as Turkiye expands her footprint and holds off war, which is better for us in the short term. Its also a message to the french that they are within are striking range and such a missile alludes to "nuclear warheads". Ripley pretty much explained this.

So if it were real, then it makes sense.

The only other thing i can think is that the project is very real, but what they have shown is fake. What do i mean by this, Turks are saying to them we have these capabilities, but at the same time by showing an unrelated fake/mockup they are not giving away the real capabilities.

The danger of course that this is just a typical iranian style stunt designed for domestic consumption.

Since we don't have a history of these sorts of mega stunts, its not entirely clear to me what is going on.

Making bigger claims than what is actually being delievered do not create any additional political gains.
Who cares if you can hit at 6000 km range when all your opponents are within 3000 km range.

 

[Strong AI]

From whom?

An informative explanation that will put an end to the nonsense is coming.

Officials from the Ministry of National Defense stated that the necessary explanations will be provided regarding the claims circulating about the GÜÇHAN TURBOFAN JET ENGINE.

A ballistic missile with 3000km range can only hit its targets at low-mid-supersonic speeds because its engines will be shut off mid flight. A 6000km range ballistic missile can still have enough fuel allowing it to be high-supersonic or low-hypersonic in the terminal phase for the same range target. It's an important deterrant against countries like Israel who has capable ABM systems.

The bigger the missile the more the speed but you can have more of the smaller missiles to shoot as they are small and easier to handle and all, you need variety.

The UDMH+N2O4 liquid propellant has been developed and has entered mass production.


It has been in the works for over a decade.


The rocket engine's design was finalized last year.


The 3-ton warhead shares the same explosive filler as GAZAP and is about 10 times heavier.


The MOD (likely tomorrow) will hold a press conference. This is probably the announcement we've been waiting for all morning.


This information comes from the interviews the R&D Director of the Ministry of National Defense, Nilüfer Kuzulu, gave to the national press.

Baykar has signed an agreement with Indonesian company PT Republikorp for the Bayraktar KIZILELMA.

Under the agreement, 12 Bayraktar KIZILELMA Unmanned Combat Aircraft will be delivered to Indonesia starting in 2028.

We hope this agreement will contribute to further deepening the strategic defense industry cooperation between Türkiye and Indonesia.

You get the concept. TAF will decide the variety. All has their own uses.
