Nice audible click.

Cockpit seems very modern and par with F35s.

It would be better if they didn't show the inside of the cockpit, it's very empty and looks like it's temporarily attached there.

Look at this smoothness..
Advantages of manufacturing the F35 body. TUSAS at least knows very well how the 5th generation body should not be.

It's HUGE man! we I hope we try for TF-40-45000 engines rather than 35000

Also sorry for talking bad about the design of TFX after looking at the F35 etc I see they used the same technics as F35

Tfx reminds me of a f35 and a f22 put together.

For some reason I really like it. Its just beautiful in its own way.

Both planes are the gold standard of jet fighters. Many nations trying to build their own look at those two for inspiration.

What would be interesting if the tfx evolves to look more like the YF23 that would be ace!!

Not the YF23 but the F44 Manta, as it is the father of 6-generation designs. Turkey could turn the TF-X into a 6 or 5+ gen fighter jet in the future by doing so.

Interesting seems like MMU is using Martin Baker's Mk18 (US18-E) ejection seats which are also used for the F-16 Blk70, that means MMU will have a canopy jettison system like on the F-16 and not a fracturing like on the F-35.

Through canopy ejection

 

[boredaf]

You know, I don't think I've ever heard anything about a domestic ejection seat. Are we really not working on that yet?

 

[Radonsider]

No real reason to invest in that in short/middle term

I remember hearing it was cancelled as it was not feasible short term

Is this good or bad?

I know, but I hope we've started looking into it as we are going to need it, imo, before we start serial production of our own jets.

Both have their advantages/disadvantages.
