    Altay & Turkish Main Battle Tank Programs

    You might be right bro but, if so, it's even more puzzling because Altay already had a soft-kill system. If Otokar wanted to add a slewing smoke grenade launcher (I'm not sure if the pod with grenades on it even is a slewing type..) Aselsan could design something like that in an afternoon...

    Altay & Turkish Main Battle Tank Programs

    I doubt it. We don't see any other components of such a system there. Plus Aselsan's LWR has changed over time. Current one on website: Older one on Altay: Probably it was improved again due to ES.

    The new tank is definitely Altay, not Leo 2.

    :cheesy::flame::cheesy: O lawdy is I in hevin. Removed old commander's sight and added a new mast-mounted sight, improved turret and chassis shaping, increased armour around the mantlet, and I can't tell what that new round thing on the turret is.

    Stabiliser fins of the mystery rocket look very similar to the very early PARS prototype made by SAGE:

    I dunno, the canards look too big for a missile as big as Bora, plus they're almost the same shape as the TRG-122:

    Looks a bit too fat to be a TRG-122 variant. My guess is it's a new 160mm guided rocket.

    Turkish Land Vehicle Programs

    Yeah I saw that after posting, however this is a more appropriate thread since this is designed primarily as an AFV similar to Puma. The air-defence role is secondary.

    What happened with Tumosan and the Austrians was due to political issues, namely the resurgence of Naziism in some parts of Europe, especially Austria. Austria is particularly bad because not only is their natural Naziism coming out again, they're also full of pro-Russian stooges and agents, and...

    Turkish Sensor and Detector Programs

    The Spanish are getting design assistance for the radar complex on the F-110 from the US or will buy the radars from Australia, btw. Gives you an idea of how advanced Aselsan has become.

    Translation: Turkish 4cyl diesel engine, automatic transmission, power train, suspension, and electronics. Tumosan says it has 30% better fuel efficiency than similar engines. I can't remember the source now but just recently I read about this exact reform being in the works. A new company is...

    If Russia sells the Mig-29/35 they wouldn't really be selling the aircraft, they'd be selling a favour, probably something YPG-related.
