What's new

Turkey becoming very self efficient in military capability.

We cannot trust PK-08 In battle simple is that.

Why is that?its still in testing?

PK-08 is a G-3 technology if i am not wrong and it comes with a 5.56mm cartridge which puts it out of the race , also it lacks some thing we call , The night vision & targeting sights which we cannot make.

Where as HK-417 uses 7.62 mm cartridge and accommodates a G-3 magazine which means it will save nearly a million rounds and magazines from being wasted.

the rate of fire is 600 rounds per minute and this will never break down in middle of the battle.

it uses a accessory diopter/rotary or optics as a sighting system which can convert it into a mini sniper rifle at any time .

HK-417 with a sniper sight and Tripod.



Turkey's company MKEK manufactures this german gun under license from H&K and MKEK has an MOU with POF for the production of HK-416 and 417 and the Sniper Rifle up in the image.

hope it helps.

I think Pakistan and Turkey are in the same boat with the issue of phasing out G3 or based systems. Turkey chose the HK-416 because of Nato compatibility, dependability, and versatility. It is simple as that.

Pakistan will stick to 7.62mm configuration but we also may get HK-416 for Our Special operations such as SSG , SSGN , SSW and EPC or Elite police Commandos also the Sniper Rifles.

Thanks"

What? its 5.56 mm so its out of the league?can we say the same about HK416 thats same calibr as 5.56mm?

also it lacks some thing we call , The night vision & targeting sights which we cannot make.
Did u ever try to know if we make them or not?
We make them all sir and are currently being delivered to troops fighting militants.Thought not on a massive scale.

Where as HK-417 uses 7.62 mm cartridge and accommodates a G-3 magazine which means it will save nearly a million rounds and magazines from being wasted.
If u want HK 417 then whats wrong with G3? its only the weight?

the rate of fire is 600 rounds per minute and this will never break down in middle of the battle.
Ever tried firing a G3A3?
it uses a accessory diopter/rotary or optics as a sighting system which can convert it into a mini sniper rifle at any time .
Simple Nvgs and sniperscopes dont make a assault rifle a sniper.Only makes the aim better.Same can be done with G3A3 and has been done in some cases.Ive seen G3A3s with sniperscopes

Turkey is making mehmet series or HK 416(5.56 mm calib)not HK417..

Instead of HK416...Cspecial forces are using M-4s and may even posses HK-416.Thanks

POF should get the technology for the HK-416 and HK-417s from the Turks, it will be a great weapons, without much operational issues and starting costs.

Plus, the under barrel grenade launchers tech should also be gotten, its gonna be very helpful in future warfare.

Rather there are a lot of weapon systems, in which we can and should co-operate with the turks, as it will give a very good weapons capability.

5.56mm for Police commandos and 7.62mm as a battle configuration .

I know but its not just sights that cannot match HK series but its also the quality that matters in terms of circumstances that our soldiers will fight in ie , Sand , Water and mud.

G-3 cannot be used in Antarctic conditions ie Siachin and it also have been a long time trouble in temperatures more than 40c if constantly fired as you do in the battle.

Multiple problems ie Size , Weight and G-3 cannot be used in full auto mode because its just not accurate.

Yes.

Simple Nvgs and sniperscopes dont make a assault rifle a sniper.
A mini sniper specially in the night when you have a silencer on.

This picture speaks for itself.



Only makes the aim better.
It is called accuracy which is vital in the hot zone.

Same can be done with G3A3 and has been done in some cases.Ive seen G3A3s with sniperscopes

I already have explained how army is facing problems with these old world war weapons , now we need new high end technology for the 21st century.

They also make HK-417 and they are ready to transfer that production technology to POF Pakistan.:cheers:

but do it have capability to stay operated in mud, sand, water, and dont get hot on firing. I just fall in love with HK 416 after hearing that it work even after you put it in water sand or mud.

Turkish officials always point "2018-20 years" like a strategic turn-point for Turkey because Many defence technologies will have been developed until this date. If Any problem do not occur in our country in future such as echonomical, ethnical, terorism, political or technological failures..etc, We are going to see a Turkey that is able to develop much more technology than even Russia and Israel in many sectors of Defence.

The way turkey is going i believe it will be able to reach its target before 2018.

1)We will have to ask the germans in order to procure the systems.
2)Will be very coast ful.

Brother we already are using them,in swat and other areas.

Ur right about that,we should start projects like corvettes,subs or arty programmes

Yes indeed... Our new rifle will be a littile bit "copy" of other proved rifle examples developed before. If you check the statements of Turkish officials about this program, You are going to see that They have already checked both USA M-4 and Germany HK-416-17 Rifles to develop our owns. They implied that M-4 has an overheat problem with its barrel so MKEK will produce M1913 piccatiny rail for Turkish rifle program to bring short this problem and Proved HK G36 patented gas mechanizm will be produced Because Officials want New 7.62 rifle to stay operational in sand, mud and water conditions...
