Turkey Military News, Reports, Data, etc.

Latin-American countries interested in Turkish drones:

Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu, who recently completed his Latin America tour covering 6 countries, said that Latin American countries are closely interested in Turkish UAVs and UCAVs. "They are related to our defense industry. UCAVs are closely followed and seen as a game changer," Çavuşoğlu said.

Seeing the TB2 wrecking all kinds of targets with the MAM munitions on the ground, sea and in the air (hovering), I cannot wait to see what it'll do with the Block II MAM with IIR guidance with multi-target, stealth attack capability...

Especially the latest footage of the MAM hitting fast moving and manouvering boats in the Black Sea

Agreement signed... ANKA Unmanned Aerial Vehicle to be Produced in Kazakhstan!

Nice animation of the new Koral II EW system under development, building upon the experience of the original Koral:


I bet this won't have any problems with the S-400.

TURKISH AVIATION AND SPACE INDUSTRY NATIONALIZED AN AI-BASED CAPABILITY IN AIRCRAFT MATERIAL TESTS


Thanks to the tests carried out on the parts of the products using artificial intelligence, Turkish Aerospace Industries managed to reduce the fatigue tests applied to the structural components of the aircraft by 70 percent. In addition, with the commissioning of digital twin technology, the life of the material will be determined during the testing phase. Thus, besides saving time, effective use of human resources will be ensured, the rate of scrap material generated during the tests will be reduced and the energy consumption during the test will be reduced.

Turkish Aerospace Industries managed to verify the international scientific study, including the "Turkish Aerospace USA" office in the USA and academics from the world's leading universities. Thanks to the work involving TOBB University, the fatigue tests applied on the metals (Aluminum and Titanium) materials were scientifically verified with artificial intelligence, machine learning and deep learning. In the next stage, studies have been started for the application of materials such as metals, composite polymer materials and titanium alloys used in aircraft structures.

The company, which will also commission the Digital Twin technology, will start the test of the product's twin designed in the virtual environment as soon as the test phases of the product begin. Turkish Aerospace Industries, which has managed to shorten the test phase with artificial intelligence, will collect test data from the same piece that it will design in a virtual environment with Digital Twin technology. As a result of the test data obtained from here, it can be determined beforehand which areas will get tired and how much. Thus, the durability of the part will be known.

Sharing his views on the work carried out, Turkish Aerospace Industries General Manager Prof. Dr. Temel Kotil said, “Our efforts to develop our aircraft at world standards with tomorrow's technologies continue rapidly. Collaboration with our engineers in our company's office in the USA and academicians who are experts in their fields bore fruit. We have nationalized another talent and we have confirmed this with TOBB University, one of the respected universities of our country. We continue to work on the use of more advanced technologies. I would like to thank everyone who has made developments that will contribute to the aviation ecosystem of our country.”

The 4th Gökbey made its first flight:

Turkish defense delegation visited the UK. Some good news:

President of the Presidency of Defense Industries, İsmail Demir, made evaluations about the meetings he held within the scope of his visit to the capital city of England, London. Stating that there are some long-standing relations with the British side and that they discussed various issues, Demir used the following statements:

"In particular, some steps had to be taken by them in order to make progress on some issues we talked about before, both in the National Combat Aircraft and its engine. We saw positive approaches regarding these steps as well. The general atmosphere is quite positive. We had meetings with the officials of the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Commerce. We meet with companies in detail. We had representatives from our companies here. Important details were discussed on technical issues and at the same time, steps were taken to take the relations between the two countries to a higher level in principle on defense industry issues. Seeing that the previously promised positive steps, especially regarding some restrictions applied to Turkey, were taken, implemented and removed, created a more positive atmosphere. It is important to take these positive steps, to act in the spirit of alliance, and we have seen what a positive day can be if the British side acts in accordance with this spirit."

As suggested by me some months ago:

sequ said:

They should also come with upgrades or new iterations fitted with HD thermal sensors for the various systems like the AHTAPOT(...)

And now the first sign of HD thermal sensor for other applications other than gimbal turrets:



The AHTAPOT-S HD is now under development.

Combat management center of the Reis class submarine. The Reis class is a slightly modified version of the Type 214 submarine. The combat management system involves 6 consoles with 2 screens each. It can track 25 contacts and engage 6 of them simultaneously.


The Reis class is significantly larger than the standard Type 214. Its surfaced displacement almost equals the submerged displacement of the standard 214. It has newer periscopes and its electric motor is 37% more powerful.
