Would love to get a look at what the VLS will actually look like

Third milgem class ship is ready to launch but they are looking for a suitable date for officials to attend.

Hi,

It is good---creates confusion.

ASelsan Ares 2NG is already an ESM system,my expectation was areas 2 that is electronic attack-jammer system.



 
Glad to hear amout the MILDAS System being able to quadpack. The good thing about CAMM-ER is it justs needs a VLS with enough room as the weapons come in prefabed cannisters (single pack and quadpack) and its fairly plug and play from what i got from MBDA sales director interview. That said Sylver A35 for Baburs is a no go. A35 is, as the name suggests 3.5m long unit and could not hold the 4.2m long CAMM-ER. The A43 and A50 would be required which can bost 4.3m long and 5m long missoles respectively. As we know, CAMM also comes in its own launch canisters (single pack), or alternately can be quad-packed into the SYLVER, ExLS and Mk41 VLS. So if Sylver are even available for Babur it would need to be A43 or A50 and both SHOULD allow quad packing. Otherwise, I hope work is underway to have MILDAS host CAMM-ER and allow for its quad packing. If there is any accuracy in the videos above, it looks like Babur will have 12 cell VLS, likely a derivative of GWS.35. If MILDAS is able to be certified for CAMM-ER, Babur could be refitt with 8 cell MILDAS and more than double the missile capacity.
 
It is not always to make more missiles on the ships are good,but may be dangeourus,you have to look at russian moskva incident.Babur class is a very good ship with the two stage defence against antiship missiles,It is also will give oppurtunity to build network center warfare.I wish Turkish navy gets babur class as well.
