The rumored and potential Spain situation and British position is not the same thing. Lets remember a bit: We called British to get help for engine development. IP rights were going to belong two countries. We could sell the engine other countries too, without restrictions. Year was 2017 by the...

Some reasons: - Time: If a competent company get involved, overcoming technical difficulties would be much faster - Money: Development costs will be divided - Economics of scale: The more it is produced, the lower the price becomes. - Marketability: Sellling countries like Spain can open...

Of course he is. That is the basic cost analysis in anywhere in the world I think some of us mixing up what KE cost to Baykar or us as a nation. He is an aircraft manufacturer, he does not take into account radar or sensors, they are for users. And yes, an empty KE could be 5 or 10 times...

If you explain things what he says is impossible, it would be a much productive argument. Instead, you just saying he is lying. We are tired of that kind of attitude.

Agree that , he also explicitly said that 5 or 10 times cheaper than 5. gen aircrafts. If you count all the expenses 20x 30x cheaper he outlined But you know, media is always tend to exagerrate things to get more views. If one doesnt watch entire program, headline or fixed subtitles can be very...

Half of Europe united and created 1 ramjet AA missile, we on ourselves created 2 ramjet AA missiles: Gokbora and Gokhan This is not small UAVs like Baykar and Tusaş making almost identical ones, like Kalkan and others. There may be export consideration. But we are talking about extremely...

From this stage, there is no turning back, otherwise noone would do business with them. Eurofighters are coming

That is almost a new missile. Original Tayfun is 2300 kg, 610 mm and 6.5 m length. https://www.roketsan.com.tr/uploads/docs/kataloglar/TR/2024/1726595739_tayfun.pdf

And has to be a ramjet 💪

Excellent development. Ahlatçı is deserving credit because they (mostly) transformed Çorum a place from migrate to a place to migrate. There is already organized defense Industry in Çorum (in Ankara road). Their mechanics (ustaları) are famous for their expertise and very good their jobs after...

I am ready to take some heat, but I will write anyway. May be not peace (not at least right now, may be later) but some sort of coolheaded approach is needed imho. Dont get me wrong, I curse Israel more than anyone for what they have been doing to Palestinians, but Turkiye and our interest must...

Unfortunately, it doesnt work that way. Not technically, but as a matter of law and politics: F110 engines are in the scope of ITAR (International Traffic in Arms Regulations). You bought these engines to be used for f16s. Removing from F16s and using in Kaan like exporting these engines to...

I dont want to be that direct but I have to say: You have no idea whatsoever about Turkiye and about Israel. There are a lot to be said, like they have to fight somewhere, they dont want any country that capable of defend themselves in this region, their current leadership consist of bunch of...

What concerns me the most is the espionage activities of Israel, not their airforce. We can build air defence systems, radars; lets say we can protect them to some degree from aircraft attacks. But what if in case of a conflict there are some sleeping agents, some traitors (you all know who I am...

Iran has not said this action is an act of war so far. They are just talking about "response". Interesting. https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/iran-plans-give-harsh-response-israeli-attack-iranian-security-source-reuters-2025-06-13/
