This is what I was talking about, Kaan can teach the pilot how to fly, there is no need for other planes. A pilot does not need to go through all the old school phases of flight training. Kaan will be safe for both the pilot and itself.

Big part of modern jet training is cost management. If you ever go to İzmir you'll see that tens of T-38s start their routine every monday at 9 and fly in business hours until Friday 5PM. That's hundreds of flighthours every month. It's expensive. Doing LIFT training with Kaan is just meaningless. It is literally the single most expensive aircraft design our air force could think of.

But, all these simulators and SIM modes will make conversion training when the pilot joins the squadron much easier.

You will be saving from keeping costs of lots of other planes. Pilots will not need to transition from one plane to another. Ground simulations will also be part of this. It is better to waste a couple more planes for training than partitioning the training between multiple platforms. It will take a shorter time for sure. Cost will still be be tolerable and Kaan will get more attention and be perfected as the only son of the family and one of our own making.

We don't need to be a follower in following traditions we need to be the innovator and a leader as it can be the new trend of the modern pilot training.

Kaan traning is/will/should be fundumantly diffrent it is not only teaching the flight characteristics of KAAN but you are creating a sensor fusion commander in the cockpit for a variety of mission sets... There is no twin seat KAAN, F 35 or F 22 ......

For Kaan we can assume that the traning will be may be similar to F 35 or F 22;

-Academic Phase;

Stealth theory & signature management, Sensor fusion logic.......... Data links (MADL + Link-16 integration (Yes Data links are a part of the Academic Phase)...............

50–70% of training time is Simulator Phase..... rumor is that pilots find simulator harder than real flight.... since I guess they are trying all possible crazy scenarios in a safe enivornment ..... this is the essence of a simulator.

Actual fright traning is still near % 40

- Flight Training Phase ( conversion course) most of our pilots will be coming from F 16

-Tactical Phase

However, Simulator is not a substitution to the actual flight traning but it is there for preparing the pilot to the complexity of the plane and providing a safe and controled enivornment to implement complex scenarios

Simple detail, both prototypes were in air. Wonder what's the latest sortie number for the program is. They were on flight 300 back on October 10.

I miss hearing more good news about Hürjet. Not about export, but about our own AF getting them.

If you check this news, TAI is establishing a production line capable of building two aircraft per month. TuAF to receive 16 units initially. Further quantities will be added as new configurations are added. Hurjet is scheduled for delivery to the Turkish Air Force’s aerobatic team, Turkish Stars, in 2026.
For this to happen, the engine manufacturing at TEI must be at an advanced stage, since all engines will be manufactured by TEI under license.

Spanish deliveries won’t start until 2028. So there will be quite a bit of a learning curve before Spanish Hurjets start rolling out of serial production line.
At 2 jets per month production rate and first deliveries starting in 2026 to TuAF (most likely towards the end of the year) , majority of the 16 jet initial order will be coming out of the production line in 2027. This coincides well with the given delivery dates for Spanish Hürjets.

I thought they were also preparing the TOMTAS facilities to assemble planes, plans have changed?
