A team of expert personnel from the Air Force Command Aircraft Maintenance Working Group and the General Directorate of Military Factories inspected the Eurofighter Typhoon maintenance facilities at the Royal Air Force Coningsby Air Base





20 Eurofigter T-4 Fighter Jets to the Turkish Air Force by 2030-2031

The Eurofighter T4 will elevate the Turkish Air Force to a new level, particularly with the AESA radar and the 200 km METEOR BVR air to air Missile.

Turkiye must produce and deploy 50 ANKA-3s as soon as possible to change the game in BVR combat


ANKA-3 achieves high stealth performance because its

-- tailless flying-wing design
-- internal weapon bays
-- specialized composite body minimize its radar reflection
-- specialized RAM paint minimize its radar reflection

ANKA-3 RCS ( in stealth mode )
X band : 0,001 m2


Direct BVR Comparison Overview

Capability	ANKA-3 (VLO Setup)	F-16V Block 70	Rafale F4
Estimated RCS	~0.001 m² (Marble size)	~1.0 to 2.0 m² (Clean)	~0.5 to 1.0 m² (Clean)
Primary Radar	MURAD-100 AESA	AN/APG-83 SABR (AESA)	RBE2 (AESA)
Max Detection Range	Dependent on AWACS networking 350 km	160–200 km	140–180 km
Detection Range (Against 0.001 m² target)	N/A (Irrelevant for its own safety)	Estimated < 27–32 km	Estimated < 22–27 km
BVR Weaponry	Internal Bays (GOKDOGAN)	External Only (AIM-120D)	External Only (METEOR )

• This means the F-16V or Rafale cannot lock onto or even reliably track the ANKA-3 until it is within 27-32 km

The ANKA-3 can spot the F-16V or RAFALE from over 100+ km away.
It can launch a BVR missile long before the enemy pilots even know a Drone is in the area.
