Hello, during Idef 2015 held in Istanbul last May (when the agreement to develop the medium weight tank was signed) I had talks with the design crew of the FNSS Kaplan 20 seen in the picture above.
We had also a short discussion about the joint development of the medium weight tank and the team...
As far as I know the ZMA-30 HISAR is not intended to fire at the move. It is intended that she can follow the armored infantry and setup aircover there where needed.
Officially they are not retired yet because there is no missile to replace them yet, but there is also none in active use anymore, they are either stalled in museum or mothballed and non active.
I think you are basing your info on a press conference given by retired general Pekin who said...
The eşek arısı is already very old, at least 10 years. There is curently new shortrange AT missiles in development such as the Mizrak-K and there where also talks about a joint development with Sweden on something like the NLAW but I don't know in what stadium that is and whether it is continuing
Dear Kul, your own article says it already: "with a third batch (ships 9 to 12) to feature the more extensive modifications and become known as TF-100"
The Milgem-G = i-class frigate
third batch with more extensive modification (TF-100) = i-class track II
That's the conceptual drawing of the TF2000 by Istanbul shipyards, once everything is agreed upon concept than the preliminary design phase starts, a re-evaluation of the preliminary design follows and detail design phase begins.
Keep your BS to yourself and do not spread gossip as if it is true.
I found the speech of Erdogan at 12:25
He doesn't mention anything about engines nor helicopters, people are just making up things and spread it around like they know something.
Either post a source or stop BS! This is a...
Yes AHEAD is airburst, true. What I meant is continue developping based on the AHEAD that have munitions for applications on IFV's
See PDF (Turkish frigate is already using AHEAD!)

Nice but not good enough.
Next step should be:
We managed to develop an AHEAD like ammunition, so the Korkut SPAAG could be realized.
But the Germans went further, from AHEAD they developped the Air Burst Ammunition, so the PUMA was realized.
We need to develop also Air Burst ammo and...
