I see very slim chance of tfx being made into a ucav. Fighting air to air is a very complex task and the input of the driver is very important and cannot be delayed/disrupted in such situations.

TFX maybe used in scenarios where dog fight is not required, like for bombing in lightly contested theaters.

Isn't TFX designed to be a two-engine air-superiority fighter for pure air-2-air roles?

No, it is a multi-role.
"Stealth multirole air superiority fighter"

 

[Nutuk]

Difference with F35 is that F35 is multirole with primarily air to ground function

TFx is multirole with primarily Air to Air function

Their designs differ in max speed, flight height etc.

Photoshop or real?

It doesn't matter it can carry 6x MAM-T(564kg) easily.

 

[Kaan Azman]

Let me correct the pylon layout

 

[Abdelaziz]

Imo ..mam-t is gonna be the standard ammo of aksungur and akinci

 

[Kaan Azman]

I feel like the arsenal of TİHAs will differ at a far greater degree this time. Aksungur might be used to deliever many MAM-Ls and 500lb bombs alike, perhaps kamikaze UAVs like Şimşek and Göksungur.

Aselsan Nano-UAV Saka 1 currently uses 2 axis camera

Saka 2 will use 3 axis stabilized Aselsan camera. Saka 2 is planned to have an autonomous cave exploration capability using image reference.

@Saithan @Corona You guys remember when we talked about it in the internal operations thread?

Cave exploration capability is also part of the Aselsan future warfare video.

Let me correct the pylon layout View attachment 22775

Here is correct layout

 

[TheInsider]

1xSOM (Let's say SOM-J it is the lightest SOM variant) 1x540kg
4xTeber (Let's say Mk-81 there is also Mk82 option) 4x155kg
2xMAM-T 2x94kg
2xKGK-SIHA-82 2x340kg

Total weapons load=2028kg.

Akıncı can't carry that payload.

 

[Nutuk]

How do you know?

Do you know the real specs of Akinci, or just the minimal design specs

 

[Combat-Master]

1xSOM (Let's say SOM-J it is the lightest SOM variant) 1x540kg
4xTeber (Let's say Mk-81 there is also Mk82 option) 4x155kg
2xMAM-T 2x94kg
2xKGK-SIHA-82 2x340kg

Total weapons load=2028kg.

Akıncı can't carry that payload.

2 x 750shp with a 20 meter wingspan. Perhaps you should do some comparisons of similar sized and powered (light cargo) aircrafts..

Akıncı can't carry that payload.

With low fuel it can carry that. it has 2500kg of fuel and payload capacity. 470kg of fuel will be enough for couple hours.

 

[Nutuk]

There are 3 version announced
2x 222 hp
2x 450 hp
2x 750 hp

but only one load capacity announced.

It is evident with different power levels you will get different load capacities. So do not bite yourself on the 1350kg external load specification.

Is it still 1350kg with 2x750hp? Don't think so

I always wondered the why the EO unit is retracktable. This is why. To protect the EO unit while firing SOM.

All the pylons need not to be loaded in their maximum
