TR HÜRJET-Advanced Jet Trainer/ Light attack aircraft

[MADDOG]

Hurkus' max speed is 310 knots and cruise speed much lower. This vehicle maintained 319ish knots for prolonged periods. Most likely not Hurkus. My vote on TIUS or the EW warfare aircraft they are currently building.

I'm pretty certain Hürkuş can fly well beyond 310 knots. But like you said, it probably won't be able to maintain that speed for an extended period. Unless of course, the aircraft is nose down most of the time which doesn't seem to be the case regardless. Could be TISU, although I have doubts surrounding that theory. I don't think it's the Hava SOJ, that aircraft has a specific designation. It could still be the Hürkuş 2...

How is this thing gonna fly this year man? Mind boggling. I really do wonder how long they will be doing the ground tests.

TAI had announced that they will use Artificial Intelligence in testing of planes which will reduce test times to 30% of the usual taking out 70% of the time spent on testing.

I know but I don't think that mechanism can be integrated straight away. It needs time. Second of all Mete Yarar suggests that the first flight will happen next year. That's yet another contradicting statement, but it makes more sense. Meh, dunno, TAI knows best. Anyhow, I watched the video in its entirety, and I'm glad about the progress TAI has made. It won't be long until we see pictures of the MMU getting manufactured.

Testing progresses by stages, not time. This aircraft probably shares many similarities (some subsystems might even be the same) with Hürkuş. The idea was to make a secret first flight before the official one to ensure all are okay during that one.

Probably they will have a very intense evaluating process during testing. Probably they use AI and high CPU power during that time to make things faster.

They probably are and I'm not denying that. It is a tight schedule though!

HAVA SOJ performed another test flight out of Mürted Airfield yesterday

 

[Zafer]

Why? Because you believe the most recent example, KF-21 which made its initial flight in 2022, is the new standard and an aircraft of taking about 15 months from rollout to maiden flight is "norm"? I was trying to give Turkish some hope that It could rather be done in about 10 months, but I guess you prefer Hurjet to make an inaugural flight in 2024 instead.

Do you realize that Hürjet is a single engine plane and is simpler than the KF-21, obviously not.

Dont HURJET likes FA-50?

Mr Ismail Demir: "Before TFX MMU target, 1-2 models of Kızılelma and HÜRJET will enter the inventory. These will also be a significant power multiplier on its scale"

what about tius and göksungur

what about tius and göksungur

He didn't say anything about that.
Interview is here if you want to watch:

what about tius and göksungur

Goksungur is not a strategic weapon - it is an air launched supersonic strike UAV. TISU is going to be very strategic but it is kept in utter secrecy

what about tius and göksungur

I believe TISU will be developed after the design work of ongoing projects are completed and in sync with the development of the TF6000 engine. As Kızılelma will come before it and will fill the gap negating urgency. They should make a bomber and a tanker as well as a fighter of it all with twin engines while Baykar make single engine fighters.

From what I understand, TISU is currently under development with a similar timeline to that of MIUS.

While MIUS sourced suitable engines from Ukraine there is no talk of TISU at all. We have no idea what size it will even be, an aspect which is closely associated with engine availability. So I am guessing it is tied to the TF6000 engine development timeline.

 

[Siper>MMU]

May be a couple footages from Hürjet. MMU is still at very early assembly stage

 

[Fighter_35]

I think it could be hürjet assembling ceremony, assembling of all parts except engines. Or one new ucav , or atak 2. But I expect it o be hürjet assembling ceremony
