It's top 20% affected by the remaining 80%. They don't even try. I mean literally. They don't try. That statistics means nothing unless you're comparing it with China or Korea's uni exams because it's an outcome of the system.

In that case "Istif+" would not be Istif+. It would be a new class in Milgem family. Which would be a weird branding because 3k and 5-6k tons are in different classes. One being light frigate while the other being a heavy frigate. If that's the case, I will assume Istif+ is a name to brand the...

@Anmdt I remember your posts about Istif class being in the limits of the design. Do you still think the same and do you happen to know anything about an Istif+ project?

I thought earlier blocks of F-16’s could not get a life-extension beyond 8000 hours?

Work force in defence industry is up by ~20 thousand in 5 years between 2020 (75k+) and 2025 (100k). As per companies, Aselsan went from ~8k to ~16k (2020-2026) Tusaş from ~9k to ~16k (2020-2026) Is the number of engineers and technicians really a bottleneck for major ex-JSF production...

If no obstacles were to put ahead, how fast could return to the program be?

I hope he is okay. We would like to see him back.

Why TR_123456 abi deleted his account? Account is labeled as guest now. Anybody knows anything?

If KAI engineers don’t work a miracle, either Block 3 will be chubby like F-35 or they will change the specs later. We will see.

Isn’t that a new aircraft from scratch? And how big is it going to be? Kaan will carry 1000lbs class internally. 2000 requires an iwb as big as F-35A’s.

Here is one reason why I put KE in low-observable zone:

Guys, 0.1 for KE and 1 for EF/Rafale was unserious numbers. And we probably will never know the exact numbers. What I meant was KE is not as stealth as F-35 or such and the main reason for this is money. It’s not about the rcs values but the comparisons. KE’s RCS values are probably in...

I said these not @Huelague so I will answer. If we consider KE's RCS value (which we don't know) as 0.1m², 4.5th gens RCS values as 1m² and 5th gen RCS values as <0.01; this makes KE's RCS values similar to 4.5th gens more than it is similar to 5th gens. With "similar", I don't mean "same" but...

Better composites = less rcs Better composites = more money Better ram coating = less rcs Better ram coating = more money Better rcs optimized body shape&curves = more production cost F-35 ~100 million dollars KE <50 million dollars Same goes for B-2 and F-35. Is B-2 smaller? If you asked why...
