There are some key technologies needed.
S-400 will be a gap filler. I hope that we will our own THAAD missile within 5 years


Aster 30 SAMP/T (Or MIM-104 Patriot), possible. And It would already be fantastic.

But THAAD It's impossible. For this it is necessary to totally master the launch and the spatial environment.

THAAD is similar to intercept ballistic missiles :



Lightweight Exo-atmospheric Projectile (RIM-161 Standard Missile 3)





THAAD (Terminal High Altitude Area Defense)




THAAD-DACS System

No Fantasy no success

Obviously not. Please read

Atmaca was fired from standart Harpoon launcher. Thats my point. OKUMAK anlamaktir

because it will be used from a ship to target a ship. Therefore also "ANti-ship."
more details.

Electromagnetic Surprise by ASELSAN
5dc08f1e-dcd5-4d29-8d7b-5e4cbf5b2061.jpg



ASELSAN has been carrying out an R&D Project on development of Electromagnetic Launcher (EML) successfully since 2014 so as to gain electromagnetic launch system technology. In the light of these studies, the first results of developed prototype of Electromagnetic Gun System (known as Railgun) has just been received. ASELSAN proved its experience and claim in this area with first live firing tests that were conducted successfully between 26th and 29th of December 2016. ASELSAN keeps working on this area without slowing down and will demonstrate its first EML prototype in IDEF 2017.

Thanks to its higher muzzle energy and 2000-2500 m/s projectile speed, thus effective range greater than 300 km, Electromagnetic Gun System is also evaluated to be an air defense system that is highly effective against modern air threats. Electromagnetic Gun System which brings significant technological advantages to battlefield, also ensures Multi-Mission Capability by means of developments in smart ammunition technologies. In other words, a single Electromagnetic Gun System can be used in different roles and areas.

General Specifications of Electromagnetic Launcher

  1. Long - range weapon technology with high-power electromagnetic energy
  2. Low cost mission effectiveness against current threats
    1. Lower unit cost
    2. Lower handling cost
  3. Multi-Mission Capability
    1. Naval Surface Fire Support
    2. Surface Warfare
    3. Air Defense
    4. Aircraft or Satellite Launcher
  4. High Platform Reliability ( no chemical explosives)
Within Electromagnetic Launcher domain, ASELSAN has been working with the aim of gaining critical technologies step by step; becoming the leader of Electromagnetic Launch Technology and putting such technologies into practice. In the near future, ASELSAN aims at becoming one of the leading producer of Electromagnetic Launchers with products that will be developed by ASELSAN itself.

Thank you sharing this great news.
This could mean defence against hypersonic missiles ?

I would like to add some comments and would ask other members to share theories how we could produce the energy ?
For my opinion Türkiye could build a National Railgun defence network only using Gas-Turbines and only on land.

EXCEPT ZUMVALT class no military naval vessel can produce and store that energy.

"
The US has installed a railgun on an expeditionary fast transport ship. Single shot tests are being performed this year and an autoloader is being developed for 2018.

Most current destroyers can spare only nine megawatts of additional electricity, while it would require 25 megawatts to propel a projectile to the desired maximum range (i.e., to launch 32MJ projectiles at a rate of 10 shots per minute). Even if current ships, such as the Arleigh Burke-class destroyer, can be upgraded with enough electrical power to operate a railgun, the space taken up on the ships by the integration of an additional weapon system may force the removal of existing weapon systems to make room available. The first shipboard tests will be from a railgun installed on an Expeditionary Fast Transport. Though ships of that class are non-combatants, they were chosen for their available cargo and topside space and schedule flexibility. They will not be permanently installed on the EFT, and the Navy has yet to decide which ship classes will receive a fully operational railgun.

The railgun will be part of a Navy fleet that envisions future offensive and defensive capabilities being provided in layers: lasers to provide close range defense, railguns to provide medium range attack and defense, and cruise missiles to provide long-range attack; though railguns will cover targets up to 100 miles away that previously needed a missile.

The Navy may eventually enhance railgun technology to enable it to fire at a range of 200 nmi (230 mi; 370 km) and impact with 64 megajoules of energy. One shot would require 6 million amps of current, so it will take a long time to develop capacitors that can generate enough energy and strong enough gun materials."

This is yesterday's news and the photo illustrated on the Daily Sabah news is from the Pentagon. So I didn't quite catch your idea behind tadaaa:)
