They probably are developing an economical 5th gen fighter as well, maybe with also a carrier capability as Kaan cannot be a carrier fighter. This new fighter jet would basically use the same sub systems as Kaan, to reduce development costs. Single engines are easier to maintain and less...

Total of 44 units: 20 from the United Kingdom 12 from Qatar 12 from Oman That £8 billion probably includes spare parts and modernizations for aircraft from Oman, maybe Qatar also, although I don't know the difference between Qatari Tranche 3A and Tranche 4 Eurofighters. Probably would've been...

Greek media is saying the 8-12 Eurofighters from Qatar would be "leased" until the Tranche 5 Eurofighters would come. Apparently, Germany approved the sale of 20 Tranche 5 Eurofighters + option for 20 more.

The F-35 has no das component in the rear . How do you know this?

Gökhan is going to be equivalent to AIM-260 or PL-21 that’s what I’m thinking. Gökbora equivalent to Meteor.

USA will betray NATO if Israel is threatened; forget poor Turkiye. USA is completely owned and run by the American Jewish elites.

TUSAS CEO Mehmet Demiroglu: I can say that KAAN's stealth level will be at the same level as F35 or better. F35 RCS (Radar Cross Section) value, 0.001 m² or the size of a golf ball.

F-35 is being upgraded to carry 6 amraams or 6 future aim-260

Does anyone know if two seater Kaan will come? Would be good to have a dedicated EW aircraft to escort other Kaan jets for SEAD missions.

The KC-46 still has five category 1 deficiencies, saying the aircraft is “not” performing “optimally.” The aircraft is cleared to refuel with all Air Force aircraft, except the A-10 and the yet-to-be-fielded E-7 Wedgetail...
