Does that mean CAFRAD has a better range than SPY-1B/D or that it can engage and track more targets?

I don't think the range will be not the main purpose of the radar, Cok amacli faz dizili radar means target illumination radar. It works on X band and it will certainly track more targets and will be accurater then the spy. For range they will put a S band radar on the ship.

CAFRAD has x-band horizon/precision volume search and illumination radars and s-band long range search radar as part of it. They're all part of the CAFRAD complex. SPY-1 is only s-band and passive and generally much less capable than CAFRAD will be.

Why do our navy want to buy SM-3 missile? We don't have the radar for long range, wtf? Go buy sm2 is enough for our TF2000.

We will not get SM-3

Thank you. At last you got Turkish citizenship. The mast is a mockup brother
 
We will not get SM-3. Why Cafrad mast looks so strange, not typical radar mast looking.

Why? It’s checkable and repairable design while you sailing.

It has no straight lines, this is why I am asking.

The render on Navy website looks like Thales APAR and Smart - L

No that does mean it will have old tech :)
