Absence of modern SAM system is definitely our biggest weakness ...

Along with the absense of heavy-lift helicopters, yes.
I would like to draw your attention to resemblance with IRIS-T
For the 100th time Turkish defence industry aims to compete with German products

Just an IIR seeker and tail fins... every heat-seeking missile has these two :)

I'm waiting for Turkish air-to-air missile family.

Currently other Turkish Military related forums are debating hot about this issue, Most say its a copy of the IRIS-T Because the missile comes in 2 Version, 15km and 30km, This fits the SHORAD and M-SHORAD range.

However i doubt this is actually an IRIS-T, I mean where would they get this missile from in the first place? Nontheless it will boost our defence industry and anti-air capability big time...

cruciform wing -four mid fuselage wings-aerodynamics VS small span wing aerodynamics :)

and now I started wondering.... Tubitak VS Roketsan :)


are we gonna have two different aerodynamic solutions?



who knows guess this is a possibility


PS at least we know that Roketsan has some exprince in this field :)

just as a reminder

Here I am NOT talking about the seeker or the range

AND Aspide missile which is another version of the American AIM-7 Sparrow missile



to a certain degree I think it is safe to argue that knowledge base of Roketsan SAM is ESSM

I think we've overlooked the cosmetics side of the design. They can design SAMs as they like in the end it get's the job done. a-a missiles are another story.

I look at the missile's range, speed and indifference to the countermeasures.

Rest are details, like how many G's it can pull.. unimportant, in any case it will pull more G's than the target aircraft :)
