What do you think, Can electronic jammer pod make F16 stealth?
How long km does jammers can affect?
What is the Ecapability of TurAF?Peace Onyx programme or
EA -18 growler has better jammer?Next generation jammer can make stealth?
Does TurAF F16 need ALQ 187 ? Or Turkish peace onyx programmeALQ 178-ALq 131 enough for stealth?
a lot of questions,advAnced thanks

and this pods could jamm s400and s300?

Good interview with head of TAI, Muharrem Dörtkaşlı in Turkish.

I was about to post this.

So some highlights.

- TAI UMET Building (Satellite Assembly, Integration and Test center) MD says in this center we have ability to produce and test both observation and reconnaissance satellites. Facility also have ability to build more than one satellite simultaneously
- SSM expropriated 7.5 squaremeter area near TAI. An Aerospace Cluster will be formed with the participation of
subsidiary industry.

We are going to order 21 additional AN/ALQ-211 Advanced Integrated Defensive Electronic Warfare Suite (AIDEWS) pod systems... Orders from 2014 will be delivered on mid 2016.(http://www.exelisinc.com/news/press...l-advanced-electronic-warfare-technology.aspx)

P.S. Exelis bought by Harris in 2015

ASELSAN Stealth System: Able to increase stealth by reducing radar profiles and using limited camouflage.

Development time: 3 years for research, 1 years for initial production run of 30 planes

Unit Cost: $100 million

TAI C-401

The TAI C-401 is the Turkish upgrade to the Airbus A400M Atlas. The specifications will be as follows-

• Crew: 4
• Capacity: 43 000 kg
  • 140 fully equipped troops
  • Up to 70 stretchers and 25 medical personnel
• Length: 52.1 m
• Wingspan: 44.8 m
• Height: 14.8 m
• Powerplant: 4 x Europrop TP400-TU7 with 9000 kW each

• Ferry Range: 9 800 km
  
  
• Sevice Ceiling: 12 800 m
  

The TAI C-401 will cost TAI approximately $1.6 billion to research over 2 years due to its similarities to the A-400M. The initial production run will consist of 80 planes being built, each costing $180 million.

Do you have an official source?

 

[Hurshid Celebi]

No bro. Even if I have I wouldn't post.

But you know for sure Turkey is doing quantum leaps , with missile technology ( SLV is coming soon), thermobaric warheads, taking over Tech-Companies and so on.......................
2020 -2030 Turkey will be a game changer for sure.

Maybe earlier,
if Russia provokes more and our "allies" will allow us to be spearhead and it fits in their long time strategy esp. the strategy of the USA

Remark for A-400 M .
That plane can not carry more than 20 tons safely. It has construction faults in cargo bottom.
That's sure.

Wasn't there an RFP some time ago for 1 heavy transport aircraft? Do you have any new info on that?

 

[Hurshid Celebi]

Do you have any new info on that?

May I guess ?

The requirement was said to be for a single airplane at this time.
http://www.trdefence.com/2015/08/26/turkey-to-acquire-heavy-lift-airplane/

Maybe an UKRO-TURK coop, as test carrier for a future Turkish Space shuttle.
That information is confirmed and goes parallel to SLV ( maybe Satan derivative ? )

You know for sure Turkish partner Company SNC ?

But even if it is meant as an SLV, selling Satan tech would breach international legislation on long range missiles right?
A huge Antonov would be cool, but a C5 or Globemaster would be very pretty in TurAF livery.

I'm really curious what they will choose.

 

[Hurshid Celebi]

Satan tech

C5 or Globemaster

I don't think so.
You can buy unlimited experience, brain and engineering power. Main Components will be build domestic.
The only US-plane capable to carry a shuttle is Boeing 747.
Ukraine has technology and experience in Buran lifter plane.
Cooperation with Ukraine in these issues was discussed and began 8 years ago.
I believe now it will create fruits.

I would like also to see a Giant Turkish Tourism Cruise ship showing flag around the globe, THY A-380 or 747 for prestige and of course an experimental heavy lifter.
