Turkey Military News, Reports, Data, etc.

New kamikaze drone from Robit called AZAB:

100 Gökbeys (T625) will be delivered to the Jandarma:

Turkish-made GaN RF power amplifiers became operational. Really though, how many countries have an independently designed and manufactured GaN AESA radar operational?

Aselsan radar roadmap:



2023
Cenk-S
Murad
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR)
Fores Penetrating Radar
Air-to-Air Missile seeker (This should be different than Hisar-RF and Gökdoğan Seeker, It might be for Gökhan)
SRHOS (I don't know what this is but it should be an abbreviation for something)
C Ban building block ( should be C-Band T/R module)

2024
Network-based radar
Surface movement detection
Multistatic synchronization unit update
Fulmar compact antenna architecture (L/X)
High dynamic area compact ground penetrating radar

2025
Airborne forest surveillance radar
Mid-range weapon detection(STR) radar (not to be confused with long-range STR radar currently in the inventory)
Helicopter FCR
Multistatic Radar

2026
Passive radar
Very long-range radar (Big brother of EIRS)
MMU AESA/BURFIS
Cost-effective anti-ballistic seeker
Orbit tracking
Wall penetrating radar
MIMO(Multiple Input Multiple Output) radar

2027
Hybrid anti-ballistic seeker (RF+IIR)
Drone-integrated ground-penetrating radar
IHA/UAV early warning radar
Plane early warning radar

2028
Ballistic missile and hypersonic target detection and tracking
Ballistic missile interception

2029
Cost-effective long-range early warning radar

2030
Satellite early warning radar
Swarm UAV radar
Satellite surveillance, GMTI

Was it really made all on their own? Hard to believe, to be honest.

I might be missing some but at the very least Turkey, Sweden, China, USA, France, and maybe the UK (Leonardo is Italian, but the manufacturing is in Edinburgh).

It is GaN, not GaAS
