No it can not. But it can operate for 17 hours without breaking. An air vehicle that is powered by one of these engines can not possibly carry enough fuel to fuel it for more than a couple hours let alone 17.Yes, KTJ-3200 can fly up to 17 hours.

Why waste resources to build an engine capable to run 17 hrs when the need is 2hrs? Surely they could make it a lot cheaper if they reduced its qualityYes, the endurance 'service life' is up to 17 hours.
This engine is not just for the missiles,it can be used on target drones.Some target drones are reusable,so you can use it many times,very cost effective approach.The other platform could be kamikaze drones with passif radar emitting,so you can use it many hours over radar sites to shot down of it,and it will be fast to heat radar sites,and give little time to hunt it.Thats my specualtion.Why waste resources to build an engine capable to run 17 hrs when the need is 2hrs?

More thanUS$50 million has been spent on the design and development of the KTJ-3200. It is also optimised for unmanned platforms, target aircraft... Which is why KTJ-3200 is capable of flying up to 17 hours.
Kinda old now, use Google Translate: https://www.defenceturkey.com/tr/ic...n-kalifikasyon-testlerine-devam-ediliyor-3940it drinks fuel like a hungry hippo. It doesn’t make sense to use this engine for UAVs or target drones. We a missing a few pieces here to explain what is really going on
Not TEI but subsidiary of TEI (TRMotor) is working on a 29k-35k Lbf engine, probably based on TF-6000 designIs there any engine that can produce more than 10000lbf thrust tei is working on right now?
