Turkey’s engineering firm Lentatek has unveiled the Kargi anti-radiation loitering munition on the sideline of the EFES-2022 military exercise.
The EFES-2022 exercise, which was held in Izmir on the Aegean Sea, concluded on June 9 and featured more than 1,000 personnel from 37 countries. More than 40 Turkish defense companies attended the exercise to exhibit their products.
Lentatek developed the Kargi loitering munition with support from the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, Aselsan, and Turkish Aerospace Industries. The munition is meant to replace Israeli-made IAI Harpy loitering munitions in service with the Turkish military.
Kargi was designed to suppresses radars. The loitering munition uses a radio frequency (RF) seeker to locate the enemy’s radar, then navigates towards it and hit it.
The drone’s components and subsystems, including the RF seeker, the warhead, the engine, the booster, the data-link, the fuel tank, the ground control station, the navigation and flight control systems were all designed and produced in Turkey.
The characteristics of Kargi were not revealed. The very similar Harpy has a maximum speed of 185 kilometers per hour and a range of 600 kilometers.
The ongoing acceptance phase of Kargi is expected to conclude in the third quarter of 2022, with the serial production phase beginning by the end of the year.
Turkey has been working nonstop to develop its military capabilities, especially combat drones and loitering munitions. The Kargi will provide the Turkish military with a fully-indigenous system for SEAD [suppression of enemy air defenses] missions.
Still no good –Russia already has anti-stealth radar with built in jammers .
It seems to be forgotten by the west that Russia was always ahead of America etc in radar design .
Or how about passive radar —no signal transmitted ??
I remember 1960,s Russian “over the horizon” radar -Duga, while the USA was experimenting with it Russia put it in action –on my old communications receiver I could hear the pulses.
I produce eighty 5 dollars each hour for in operation an online job at .st25 I ne’er thought i’ll have it off but my relief makes 10 thousand greenbacks monthly operating this job and she or he Hav or he instructed coniferous tree State to be told further concerning it. The potential with this will be endless.
For a lot of detail…… 𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐞.𝐭𝐤/
You mean the “woodpecker”? Beginning in the mid ’70ies the Duga OTH Radar (one antenna complex is still near Chernobyl) was disrupting SW-VHF communications with it’s high power pulse ( wide band) transmitter.
That’s not passive radar.
Turkey loves to be NaTOs bisshh
No, they don’t. They’re playing their own game. It’s priceless for Russia to have Turkey still in NATO…
Turkey will play it from within as long as it suits them. They will need some more time, before they’ll eventually leave.

I salute Turks as they know white monkeys game and playing very effectively
Russia, please make Constantinople great again. Thanks in advance. A fellow traveler, Z.
The mongrel Turks are loved by none – the Anglo-Americans, Germans, Russians, nor the Chinese. They have a deluded 16th century ideal when they have neither the technology, raw materials, or energy inputs. Bayraktars are getting shot down dime a dozen in Ukraine, and all the key parts are imported, and assembled with Russian energy.
Turks fantasize about Grey Dogs but they’ll never make the sell from a stagnant middle power economy competing against Russia and China for security, and economic influence. Azerbaijan might be happy to be their bitch, but no-one else in central asia. Turkey likes the idea of playing bigger powers off ] each other, but that’s all it will amount to. A middle power with no real industry besides producing Germany’s laundry detergent with Chinese imports.
Sunni Islam countries have lazy men and poor understanding of math/science/engineering due to overemphasis on religious bullshit. That’s why they can’t fill SK/Japans/Taiwans role in the global economy. Gulf Arabs use their petrodollars to rent Whites, and own Indians to build anything resembling an economy. Turkey is slightly better through its racial intermixing with their former Balkan slaves, but it’s fundamentally a lazy Sunni nation.
That’s why this drone is going to be a failure just like Bayraktar – good for droning tribesman with AKs or poor Armenians, but unusable against a modern military. Besides, the Turkish economy is awash and denominated in USD. They’re owned by the West despite Erdogan’s yappiness. He shouldn’t forget which country saved him from the CIA coup…
Unfortunately Turkey is made up mostly of assimilated indo-European people who have been brainwashed by a British invented psy-op into thinking they are somehow a Turkic people resembling the Mongoloids of central Asia. I still don’t understand how someone can look in the mirror, see a pure indo-European face and convince himself that he’s related to a Mongoloid looking Uzbek or Kazakh from central Asia.
They have the abilities of indo-European people but due to their delusions and race-treason they put that ability to use in favor of Mongoloid nomads of the Steppe against their own indo-European cousins.
You are very biased and you “analysis” on your hatred. This isn’t facts but a emotional outburst. Why don’t you study Islamic history. You will know that Muslims were the first the invent the very things the West stole and claimed it as theirs. In Western discourse, they don’t even talk about Khalid Bin Alwaleed, the greatest commander in HISTORY, who never lost a battle, and defeated the Romans and Persians are the same time. History books have been rewritten to make the white “man” superior!. Muslims know that our history. We will rule again very soon. The transition is happening now. Let the west and the east fight each other! Alhamdullah
No hatred, Turkey is a beautiful country with great kebabs. But it’s good to be realistic about Turks as an ethnic group and power.
Nobody gives a shit about whatever Muslims invented a 1000 years ago. Nothing useful has come out of the Sunni world in the last few hundred years except for oil – and that’s sucked out with Anglo straws. Arabs can’t invent or build shit since they’re too busy oppressing their women, and whipping Hindu browns with stacks of USD to build air-conditioned stadiums.
That’s why literally all cutting edge military, or tech companies are either Western, Eastern, or Russian. Sunni’s can only take because Muslim browns never progressed past learning algebra. I guess that’s the cost of getting triggered by Mohammed cartoons.

If Arabs were that dumb how come they could spread their culture,religion and thoughts for over 1000 years and leave behind beautiful places like Alhambra Taj Mahal etc
Ding Dong
White monkeys will NEVER ADMIT TO ANYTHING THAT DOWN GRADES THEM
LEARN THIS FROM THEIR HISTORY FULL OF LIES
LEARN FROM NAPOLEON’S FAMOUS SAYING “HISTORY IS WRITTEN BY VICTORS THAT CANNOT BE CHALLENGED BY ANY ONE” ie it full of lies
And . you finish now .yet another dumbo trying to fly but can’t take off
Your insult makes no sense – you have nothing else to respond with?
Neutered F-35s from the US, S-400s from Russia, German engines for Bayraktar, and Chinese imports for everything else.
Turks are good labor for German companies though. Also selling homes to Gulf Arabs looking for a cheap lira discount.
AmericanWatcher
Then which country has GENETICALLY PURE BREED CERTAINTY NOT BRITAIN OR USA OR ANY EUROPEAN COUNTRIES
I CAN SEE MORE JEALOUSY IN YOUR COMMENT AS TURKS UNDERSTAND AND KNOW HOW TO PLAY WHITE MONKEYS GAME AND THEY PLAYING IT EFFECTIVELY AND GETTING FANTASTIC RESULTS WHICH YOU ARE NOT HENCE YOU. ARE JEALOUS
You can barely string together a coherent sentence. Thanks for helping me understand the wise, and intelligent Turkish nation.
No wonder all critical components for Bayraktar are imported… Not smart enough to produce engineers. Too much time studying religious bullshit.
Do not forget some parts for F 35 come from Turkey you should know all this. I don’t think you are intelligent enough .just zip it and back off.
Hi, I am living in Turkey and I am interested abot your comments, can we meet about by sending your e mail to me.
Ah yes, let’s see how it’s really doing on a real battlefield and against a country that has a good military – not Kurds, Wahhabis, or a poorer country.
Right? No one doubts what the Turks can do. You must be mentally challenged in history or maybe you have conditioned by the Christians.
Ding Ding
JJ345 is using toilet paper AND HE IS highly civilized person unlike uncivilized TURK WHO USE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY WATER TO CLEAN THEIR BACKSIDE
More turkroach terror bombs.
Guy Metdrapedes
Then when USA nato zionist use on innocent Palestinians or Iraqis,Syrians etc it ok by
You it not called terror bombs they just toys?
send the mongols back to the gobi desert…
It even delivers kebabs in the slums of Ankara.
Marttilo 🖕 you can sit and spin on it but without Vaseline.will destroyed your fucking anus 📴💥
Turkeystan imagines it can be as “clever” and vicioUS as the welfare warfare khaZar squatter colony nested in apartheid Palestine…but without USSAN tax cattle dollahs to pay for it all it won’t happen. Meanwhile both these tribal warmongers are running riot in Syria. They will pay the price when Ukropland is permanently shrunk and balkaniZed.
Another Gayrectum ready for rape
Uhhh….No wonder Turks f.cked up russians aka nation of whores mind.Painful experiences from Tb2 makes sense now.
Whore son Russian moderator can delete my message now .
Looks like an interesting weapon. Turks make good military products. Perhaps we’ll see one in action or on the field downed and able to be examined and tested for capabilities.
I am making $92 an hour working from home. i was greatly surprised at the same time as my neighbour advised me she changed into averaging $ninety five however I see the way it works now. I experience mass freedom now that I’m my non-public boss.
That is what I do.. https://www.Richjobz.com
