Mugatu Posted March 26, 2008 Author Posted March 26, 2008 Yeah nice chopper. Do you have a pic of the proposed mast mounted Radar?
TorwaK Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 I don't have it because it's hard to get picture of prototype. But this is ASELFLIR 300 of ASELSAN. It's going to be mast mounted radar of T-129.

Vekkinho Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 Croatia to receive T129?!! Sounds great but I doubt it, You see recently CroAF (HRZ) received 2*Mil-171 with 2 more to be delivered within a year and this is a crucial year to decide between Mirage F1, Jas-39, MiG-29M2 and F-16 to modernize our fleet, read: replace MiG-21bis 'cause there's only 4 airworthy airframes so I don't believe there's any money left for T-129. US president will visit Zagreb, Croatia on April 4th, I guess he's advertising Falcons by the way! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
TorwaK Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 As I read on newspaper, it's a future plan for exporting T-129. Even prototype is not ready yet.

Seems Turkey is getting a better model....should be cheaper than the Tiger too...
Kusch Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 ANKARA, December 22 (RIA Novosti) - Turkey plans to buy 32 used Mi-28 (Havoc) helicopters from Russia in a deal worth a total of $1 billion, a national Turkish daily reported on Monday. Vatan said the decision to buy helicopters from Russia was made after talks for purchases of Cobra and Super Cobra helicopter gunships failed with the United States. Russian helicopters will tide Turkey over until deliveries of Agusta A-129 Mangusta helicopters, co-produced with Italy's Agusta Westland, are received by the Turkish Armed Forces. The Italian company won a tender for the production of 52 helicopters in 2007. The Turkish Defense Ministry has yet to officially confirm the report by Vatan. The Mi-28 is an all-weather day-night attack helicopter manufactured by the Rostvertol plant in southern Russia. Give me "flying telephone pole" (SA-2)!
Vekkinho Posted December 25, 2008 Posted December 25, 2008 ^^^^^^ There U go, hope will see Havoc in future DCS modules! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
