Fırtına is to have a hybrid drive train. A 1300 HP electric diesel power plant that can be fast charged in 4 hours and an acceleration of 0 to 30km/hr in 6 seconds will be available. MKEK is the company that has started the project.
NEXT STOP ALTAY??

MKE used Phalanx CRAM/CIWS image in their "Yakın Hava Savunma Sistemi" brochure. Most likely, MKE is directly copying Phalanx.

The cannon is no doubt copy of the M61 Vulcan that Phalanx utilises. I'm looking forward to see what Aselsan does with the MKE Cannon :)

What’s wrong with 35mm system which is already present. Only they should do is putting on to a truck
It is already avaliable on tracked chasis: Korkut SPAAG :)

Gatling gun based CIWS ,assuming it is a 20mm compared to 35mm with AHEAD rounds,
pros:
-smaller dumb rounds, easy to store.
-responsive thanks to the vertical architecture
-effective against hard-shell targets (artillery etc)
-rounds can be self-detonating thus safer in C-RAM usage in cities
-high rate of fire achieved easily

cons:
-more rounds spent on per target, thus engagement is limited by few.
-longer engagement time per target
-dispersion due to the rotation makes it less effective in longer ranges (1-2 km is effective)
-dispersion is the sole and most important matter to be resolved, accuracy is everything because it is a hit to kill system.

Could expect something like sea zenith as well. It was configured to engage at high elevations ,so suits better for CRAM

If boran 105mm goes to serial production we should make base bleeding 105mm ammo so range will be 21km instead of 17km

While checking out Excalibur on wikipedia, I saw that there are also kits for dumb shells available. Could be also an interesting product to develop, we must have thousands of these dumb shells.

Aselsan ALKAR 81mm Mortar

The mortar system has an overall footprint of 1.85×0.85×1.02 m and can be installed on armoured and soft-skinned platforms. It was integrated onto the rear of an unarmoured long-wheelbase 4×4 Land Rover Defender for trials, although comparable platforms such as the 4×4 Toyota Land Cruiser could also be used.

The system comprises the automatic barrel laying system (ABLS), recoil mechanism, and computerised fire-control system (FCS). It is fitted with an 81 mm smoothbore mortar barrel with a length of 1.6 m, with a minimum range of 100 m and a maximum range of 6,400 m depending on the projectile/charge combination.

The turntable-mounted 81 mm mortar features an electrically powered traverse of 180° in azimuth with elevation limits from 45° to 85°. It can be traversed manually if power fails.

According to Aselsan, the system can come into action and fire its first 81 mm mortar bomb within one minute and can come out of action within 10 seconds to escape counter-battery fire.
