KIZILELMA's advantages against F-16 block70 in BVR combat


-- GaN based AESA Radar , EOTS , sensor fusion
-- Stealth design for much lower RCS
-- Internal weapon stations for stealth flight capability
-- No risk to lose Pilot


Lenght
F-16 : 15.06 m
KIZILELMA : 14.70 m

RCS ( m2 )
RAFALE : 1
F-16 Block70 : 1
KIZILELMA : 0.3

1664167921497-jpeg.882576



According to retired Air Pilot major General BEYAZIT KARATAS

KIZILELMA can engage on F-16 Block70 from 90 km away while F-16 Block70 can engage on KIZILELMA from 67 km away and RAFALE can do it from 81 km away

Range of engagement
KIZILELMA : from 90 km
RAFALE : from 81 km
F-16 Block70 : from 67 km

first-look, first-shot, first-kill capability
Even 20 km is impressive when you realize the KIZILELMA has already killed the 4th gen Fighters F-16V a couple times before you visually IDed him.

KIZILELMA to carry 100+ km GOKDOGAN air to air Missiles in internal weapon bays
1686041562818.png



even in the worst case scenario , KIZILELMA will win the conflict , because of quantity

cost effectiveness ... 4 KIZILELMA in price of 1 RAFALE


Greece buys 24 RAFALE Fighter Jets
and Turkiye can produce 100 KIZILELMA in price of 24 RAFALE

Technologies planned in the design of the KAAN but not in the F-35


• Directional Infrared Counter Measures .. ( Aselsan YILDIRIM DIRCM)
• Supercruise ..... ( Supersonic flight without afterburner )
• 360° AESA Radar coverage
• IRST infrared search and track system .. ( DAS on the F-35 can not mark )

1686207809882.jpeg


Directed Infrared Countermeasure System

Directional Infrared Counter Measures (DIRCM) are a class of anti-missile systems produced to protect Aircraft from infrared homing missiles


F-22 : NO
F-35 : NO
J-20 : NO
KF-21 : NO
SU-57 : 101KS-O DIRCM
TF-23 KAAN : YILDIRIM DIRCM

You're doing this again. And then you wonder,why people reply to your posts.

You've been boasting that Turkey is only comparable to bigger countries and that Greece,Egypt,Israel etc. are nothing for you.

YET what you do,once again and in a provocative manner like always.....is comparing your new products with the HAF.

Your post is unfair

HISAR O+ shot down a drone in a test.
SIPER shot down a drone in a test.

These showings prove that HISAR O+ and SIPER can take care of NATO standard weapon systems?

Seriously man.

Every Air Defense System in the World shot down target Drone in tests


Franco-Italian SAMP-T shot down a Fighter Jet in a test ? NO
Franco-Italian SAMP-T shot down a Fighter Jet in a real conflict ? NO
then SAMP-T
can take care of NATO standard weapon systems ?


All Turkish Weapons have NATO standard ..
even better in some fields .. for example UCAV technology


sooner or later Turkish AD Systems will be battle proven in Syria , Libya or in the Aegean and in the Eastern Mediterranean as like Turkish UCAVs

Everybody can see high quality in Turkish Weapon Systems

HISAR-O/RF

-- State of the art IIR and RF seekers
-- Vertical Launch Capability with 360° Effectiveness
-- Dual-Stage Rocket Motor
-- Thrust Vector Control System
-- Impact and Proximity Fuze
-- Hit to kill technology
-- One-Way Data Link
