Wikipedia is not as reliable as it seems in many subjects.

I remember some time ago a rumor that TUSAŞ was seeking F-110 engines for a drone project. I don't know how true it was, but a drone requiring F-110 is not a small thing.

TB3 Landed and took off from TCG Anadolu

People struggle to understand that civilian projects and military projects are fundamentally different. Troy T200, a civilian aircraft, should generate revenue, while MMU will not even amortize the project. So, the government is expected to pay for MMU since it is needed for state security, but...

Modernizations are not being done one after another. In most cases, those changes are done during major overhauls to keep it economic.

If Petlas is main supplier because of tire, GE should be there as well since 2X F-110 is not something small or cheap.

TF-6000 is waiting for matters related to engineering most probably. On the other hand, I can not claim the same for Kaan :)

Even in the beast mode, Anka-3 is faster and more agile than both Akıncı and Aksungur. You have to keep in mind that the Anka-3 has a turbofan engine, meaning that it is going to change altitude much faster. All those Drones take almost half an hour to reach cruise speed since their engines were...

You can say the same thing for 5th Gen beast modes. Why use F-35 or Kaan in that configuration when there are cheaper alternatives?

It doesn't have to have stealth all the time. For example, the F-35 has a beast mode, and Kaan is designed to be higher than the F-22 because there will be another payload there. The same goes for Anka-3. Payload capacity is not so critical because it doesn't have to use heavy weapons all the...

The engine of those missiles runs for a few seconds then it goes to the target with its inertia. Because of this, a faster launching platform means more range, also altitudes of the launching platform and target affect the range significantly. Because of those issues, a drone that flies at 5000...

Ships are large and generally don't have a problem with supplying energy for radar and cooling systems. While aircraft on the other hand are small and have limited energy production capacity, also dealing with heat produced by radar is another issue to be solved.

So, this means that rumors about reverse looking radar is not true?

TUSAŞ always said that they have an agreement with the unnamed country for engines in the case of an engine embargo from the US. I remember this from even 2019. Given that MMU needs the power level of the F-110 engine at least, we can pretty much guess what that unnamed country is.

Those humanoid robots are utterly useless, except for mental effects. They are even more useless in as pilots or crew in manned vehicles. Nowadays, pilots give commands to the flight computer, and that flight computer calculates the measures and gives another order to control surfaces and...
