    I believe this is the third plane sold in Türkiye, the first one was bought by Selçuk Bayraktar and was displayed at Teknofest'25. But the news pieces say this is the first sales in Türkiye. Probably Selçuk Bayraktar's copy is not counted as sales.

    TR HÜRJET-Advanced Jet Trainer/ Light attack aircraft

    Brute force is what keeps the plane flying at such a high bank angle, as the wings create little lift against gravity speed saves the day by multiplying what little lift there is. You can see how the plane shoots up due to high speed. Doing this close to ground is not forgiving either. So it is...

    We will probably see what TB3 is made of before too long as they are quick in deploying it.

    Once ammunition test is started it will probably go through all the outside ammo and continue with IWB ammo without a break. This also depends on whether the ammo is ready off course. I am guessing we will see completion of tests with available ammo within 3 months.

    Spain is also looking for technology transfer which I presume they didn't find with other vendors.

    TR Directed Energy(Laser) Weapon Systems

    The system comes in 5 KW increments and you can add more to scale up. But why jump while you can walk. If the system can do a job with smaller power by utilizing precision targeting then you can get away with a system that does not use too much power and much supporting systems for the high power.

    Beyond that, add some electric motors and batteries and you have more power to your systems.

    General aviation took off after the WW2 when there were plenty of small airplanes and engines made for them were left over from the war. Unfortunately Türkiye was not included it the aviation rush. However there is a new age and new opportunity particularly made for Türkiye. The drone industry...

    TR UAV/UCAV Programs | Anka - series | Kızılelma | TB - series

    Kızılelma will be most useful when all of its features like stealth, speed, agility and loadout capacity are put into play at the same time. However it does not always need all of its strengths be put into play. When you can take out enemy air defenses with stand off munitions Kızılelma can...

    We only need 93% self reliance while we are at 83% now. We can use support to make another 10% progress.

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Apparently the TF6000 can be used on the Kızılelma if you are OK with subsonic speeds which is acceptable for a first time plane. This will still bring unprecedented capabilities that can patch some of the airforce's shortcomings before Kaan comes online. This engine will be useful for the...
