1 ) KALE KTJ-3200 Turbojet Engine to replace French MicroTurbo TR-40 turbojet Engine

KALE KTJ-3200 Turbojet Engine (with a thrust up to 3,2kN) for SOM and ATMACA Cruise Missiles


No any major components of SOM and ATMACA Missiles from abroad

SOM and ATMACA Missiles from Engine to Seeker , from the Inertial Measurement Unit to missile fuel are indigenous


Turkey is one of a few countries in the world that develop 100% indigenous network enabled Cruise Missiles

SOM air launched Cruise Missile
-- precision strike capability against both land or sea targets
-- network enabled capability ( only a few country in the world )
-- Stealthy and precise
-- Terrain hugging and Sea skimming
-- Imaging Infrared Seeker
-- INS / GPS
-- Terrain Referenced Navigation
-- Image Based Navigation
-- Automatic Target Recognition
-- mach 0,94 speed

ATMACA anti ship Missile
for example Turkey bought HARPOON anti ship missile for $1 million from the US and Turkey produce ATMACA anti ship missile for less than $500.000 .........even ATMACA is superior to HARPOON

Diameter : 350 mm
Length : 6 m
Weight : 800 kg
Warhead : 250 kg
Range : 220+ km
Guidance : INS+GPS+RA+DL
Seeker : Active RF ( IIR )
Speed : high subsonic
Network enabled capability : YES

-- super sea skimming ( less than 3 m )
-- zigzag maneuver that makes it difficult for anti missile batteries

KTJ-3200 turbojet Engine

TUBITAK SAGE has developed the Inertial Measurement Unit which is one of the most critical components of Missile Systems

One of the most critical components of the missile systems we have been dependent is now indigenous
Inertial Measurement Unit designed for high precision navigation, guidance and control applications

Meteksan KEMENT tactical data link
KEMENT tactical data link terminals will be available in many applications and platforms that require electronic warfare protected , high speed tactical data communication from a long distance

It will add Midcourse guidance and two way communication capability for missiles

to be continued

OMTAS anti Tank Missile to replace American TOW , German MILAN and French ERYX

The problem here is development of IIR sensor which is semiconductor intensive. Without any advanced semiconductor, it will always be dependent on imported warhead seeker. Or Turkey will have to resort to older generation and more jamprone seekers as countries in 1980-1990s used.

KHAN Tactical Ballistic Missile to replace American ATACMS

This will require accurate guidance. We are seeing how Iranian missiles miss targets as they try to shoot long distance targets because of lack of guidance. Guidance again needs semiconductor

SOM air launched Cruise Missile to replace American SLAM-ER and Israeli POPEYE

Same problem as OMTAS

ATMACA anti ship Missile to replace American HARPOON

Development of seekers and guidance will be a major problem. All countries that have anti shipping missiles or other homing missiles have had 20-30 years if refining to develop the exact accuracy. ALso, all countries that have them have semiconductor technology to fabricate reasonably modern semiconductor of 180nm or newer.

MIZRAK-U Anti Tank Missile to replace American HELLFIRE

Same problem as OMTAS

HISAR Air Defense System to replace American HAWK XXI

This will require semicondutor technology, extensive trials and programme to test missile defence. Missile defence can't be made without at least 20 years of trial and testing after acquiring the required semiconductor technology. The computers need extensive processing power to find missiles and then engage it accurately. the radar also needs to be very sharp and fast in finding targets which will also need GaAs semicondutor technology if not GaN. This can't be made before 2045 at least

BOZDOGAN air to air Missile to replace American AIM-9

This is possible like OMTAS but the IIR seeker will have to be imported

GOKDOGAN air to air Missile to replace American AIM-120

Having a radar in a missile seeker will require major semiconductor technology miniaturised enough to act as processor in the missile.

AKBABA anti radiation Missile to replace American HARM

Same problem as GOKDOGAN

30 km TEMREN Missile to replace Norwegian PENGUIN

Same problem as developing a SAM or ATGM

ORKA lightweight Torpedo to replace American MK-46 and MK-54

This is possible to be made relatively quickly as it is relatively simpler technology and torpedo can always be wire guided

AKYA heavyweight Torpedo to replace British TIGERFISH and German DM2A4

Also possible to be made quickly

TAI TFX Fighter Jet to replace American F-16

This is a pipe dream. Turkey does not have any technology to make planes, its avionics, radar, engine etc. There is no country in the world who has made a modern plane without 30 years of experience. Merely designing an engine after having all technology needed will take 10 years for countries like Russia & USA. Developing of the technology from scratch is a process needing 30 years at least

ASELPOD Targeting Pod to replace Israeli LITENING

Making IIR is extremely difficult. ASELPOD will requirehighly accurate IIR which can take videos from long distance in HD quality. It requires modern IIR and 1980s one will not do as targeting long distance from fast moving plane requires high amount of detailed pictures

ASELSAN GaN AESA Radar to replace American AN/APG-68(V)9

When did Turkey develop GAN manufacturing technology?

GOKTURK Military Satellite
-- BURAK Space Probe Rocket and Launch System
-- UMIT Space Launch System

Turkey does not have even sounding rockets. How does it intend to launch satellites?

Most of the projects are 25-30 year ones and involve large number of steps and tests at every step. Of course, eventually, everything will be possible. But these are simply meaningless to announce so early and make claims of indigenisation

Turkey is not Iran ....

Turkish BORA Tactical Balistic Missile hit target located 280 km away with point precision ( 1 m )

Making IIR is extremely difficult. ASELPOD will requirehighly accurate IIR which can take videos from long distance in HD quality. It requires modern IIR and 1980s one will not do as targeting long distance from fast moving plane requires high amount of detailed pictures

Pakistan bought Aselsan ASELPOD instead of American and French Targeting Pods

ASELPOD is superior to even Israeli LITENING

 

[UKBengali]

Good stuff - Turkey will find many buyers in the Muslim world for their defence products.

 

[Pakistani Fighter]

[MMM-E]

U guys have Israeli weapons too?

Yes Turkey bought POPEYE Cruise Missile , HERON UAV and HARPY kamikaze Drone

but after 2004 President ERDOGAN ordered for developing indigenous weapon Systems including SOM Cruise Missile , ANKA UAV and KARGI kamikaze Drone

Why two Types of Anti Tank Missiles?

4 km OMTAS anti Tank Missile to replace American TOW , German MILAN and French ERYX
