TR UAV/UCAV Programs | Anka - series | Kızılelma | TB - series

[Pokemonte13]

It's about time, hopefully we have a batch ready for the inventory within 12 months. Forget the Eurofighter or F16, Kızılelma will be our only hope at a "stop gap" until Kaan is ready. In my opinion if done right they'll be a better option than filling the inventory with more 4th gen fighters.

If we were to simply buy new F16s or Eurofighters, we'd still be at a disadvantage. But if Kızılelma is perfected and introduced in good numbers even adversaries with 5th gen fighters would shy away from any sort of confrontation (they already do, but have been getting very bold recently).

It will take years until Kizilelma is combat ready they just started avionics/munitions integration. Most likely Anka will be the first platform to be combat ready simply because it’s mission profile is different

Yeah,dream on.
Kizilelma with that engine is an absolute joke.

When Toygun turn around it spot targets in the distance 100km~. Is that irst capebilities?

Kızılelma needs a better engine to be fully capable but even with a lesser engine it is fearsome as it is expendable.

I am waiting for the twin-engine versions of both KE and ANKA. Those will be the real deal.

i dont know if can spot targets from 100km but technically it should be able do IRST duties although compared to a dedicated it would come short the f35 can use eots for irst but the range is shorter than the one of the eurofighter
Also does anyone know if the sensors around the aircraft are DAS or ir?

 

[Zafer]

I want to see Kızılelma F16 or KE Hürjet teaming which can probably happen earlier than KE-EF and KE-Kaan teamings.

Wondering if this is NM or KM.

Target 9 is approximately ~70NM / ~130KM

yes kizilelma is nice weapon but cant replace manned aircraft like eurofighter / rafale and i doubt about its steath at best can be 0.5 m² rcs half of Rafale .
İt needs 15k lbf engine and steather design

I hope they develop a version with two engines as soon as possible.

Fresh video talking about Anduril's Fury UCAV.
5000 lb weight
Mach .95 speed

Kızılelma is around 18750 lb for comparison
