It's a random imaginary drawing for god's sake, don't jump into conclusions. At the moment there's no official imaging because there's no design yet
PDF is so immature..
But may i ask wtf is this?
What can i say? Brainless Turkish media brought up jupiter missiles after 50 phucking years and clueless people believed it. It's not the same case, there's a project going on but it will probably finish after A400Ms are delivered. We still need CN235s for their original purpose.
But the questions are, how hard could it be to turn a cargo plane into a gunship? Considering the terrain and the tough climate of Southeastern Turkey, is it worth it?
Agreed, C160s will retire from cargo duty soon but there's no telling what the Airforce will do with them. They can be modernised and turned into gunships(they are much bigger btw), they can be donated to a friendly country like Azerbaijan or Pakistan whoever got use for them. Or they can be sent to museum.I think the "Goren 1" is nothing more then a technogical demonstrator, I mean whats the point of upgrading old planes which basicly pasted there life expectence. And i dont see any use for such platform in the first place...
AC-235 "Goren 2" Gunship, From what i heard atleast...

Don't be an ignorant, US is still upgrading her AC130 fleet. TURAF will be the second after them around the world. No other country has gunships
I told you before, you are forming opinions without knowledge.

Still, none operational...Actually third. Jordan is currently modernizing their CN-235s into Gunships, RSAF has a similar project.

Too early to be happy it can be fake news come out of a military fanboys' *** , remember Turkish nuclear bomb crap ?

I believe we should work on C160s instead of CN-235s they have bigger bodies and all they need is engine and avionics modenisation.
I think CN-235-100M is better choice than C160..Remember, these gunships will be configured to circle the target instead of performing strafing runs. C160 is bigger and heavier than CN-235 which means less maneuverability..As a result, it will alter the main mission definition of the gunship, circling the target
