N1 = 6,451 RPM and N2 = 15,181 RPM, the engine produces 921 lbf, which is only 15.35% of the 6,000 lbf target. This suggests the engine is either operating at a very low power setting (e.g., partial throttle) or is significantly under performing. N2 = 38,704 RPM could achieve 6000lbf if...

What are you talking about I am the one who posted the FPV videos in the first place. How can you even say I don't know about mountainous Iraqi north? DUDE, STOP MAKING THINGS ABOUT ME OR ATTACKING ME PERSONALLY. Isn't that against the rules? The rules don't apply to you since you are the lead...

This is the classic Turkish response to doing any actual extra work. We don't want to do anything but bare minimum so we say it is not possible to do when asked. That usually always works because other side is too lazy to argue also. Who will challenge us? Those who should inspect, criticize and...

Aselsan have several solutions that can be AUTOMATED to defeat plentiful PKK drones that is killing our boys, It looks like to me that TAF must have figured out it is cheaper and easier to just let terrorists kill Turkish soldiers :mad: There are more where they came from also who is going to...

“Rensselaer Gang” taking credit for Kotil's stellar hard work on KAAN at his TAI office I assume. Forget 2028, 2030 would be a out of question with Gorgun's 9-to-5 lackadaisical tempo. 10 years later and ex-Aselsan boss Haluk still couldn't even deliver a decent Murad AESA radar at the level...

Erdoğan makes mistakes all the time. Not only that if there is a mistake to be made out of 100 choices he always makes that 1 mistake several times in fact. He trusts everyone and anyone at first even Apo, Assad, Gülen, Davutoğlu, Herzog, Nebati, list is endless. His naive and too trusting...

Michigan is like 4 I am not sure if this ranking I found is globally accepted one since there are many. Enlighten me please. But as far as I can see, best university on the globe M.I.T. which has only a few attendants from Türkiye have Selçuk Bayraktar the Turkish Elon Musk among its alumni...

Nepotism isn't good, is it? If he wanted to shake things up he would actually do something worth talking about other than nepotism. Tells me all I needed to know why not brand new SSB projects have been started up since İsmail Demir. Defense industry sadly is too busy with the diseased pitiful...

I do worry about the future of Turkish defense industry as a whole :( First İsmail Demir, Gürcan Okumuş, now Kotil. Anyone who actually does something extraordinary gets targeted. I know very little about new CEO, but who here thinks that İsmail Demir wasn't better at his SSB job? Also...

I already said Aselsan isn't being utilized to it's full potential. TUSAS or Kotil isn't responsible for what Aselsan or lesser CEOs failed to do. Am I not writing in plain English? There seems to be some kind of miscommunication.

I obviously didn't mean he personally wrote the avionics code. LOL. But TUSAS and THY existed before him but they never were such big success stories until Kotil started asking for the impossible first in THY and then TUSAS. Engineers come and go. I am writing this as a software engineer...

KAAN is a success except engines and proven stealth. Anyone denying this is either blind or a liar. If engineers do not complain about the CEO asking for the impossible all the time then that means the CEO is not doing his job. For example if everyone in Aselsan loves their ex-CEO because of...

KAAN's avionics and actual plane part is done successfully thanks to aeronautical engineer Temel Kotil. Now the new focus points are engines and stealth. The new CEO having materials and engine expertise makes perfect sense to me. I am grateful to Kotil. He made both THY which is now the big...

Guys Türkiye just like Saudi Arabia already said a dozen times that we will also have nuclear weapons the next day if Iran builds them. Erdogan rejected not having own nuclear weapons on TV. What are you even talking about at this point. LOL. Well Iran is a week away from having a nuke for...

What you are saying seems completely inaccurate to me. Most of the uranium fuel are produced by 2 Turkic nations. Saying Turks are somehow scared of Uranium because it is “dangerous” is, well silly. Turkish-Russian reactor project may not include any local pellet, rod production but it is...
