Perlu dioplas dikit.
From what I’ve been able to gather and analyse on the ground here, the KAAN deal is still just an MoU, and the figure of 48 aircraft hasn’t been finalised yet. Interestingly, we originally planned to have 48 KF-X/IF-X units before all the drama surrounding the project.I must say that I have to agree with some comments in this tweet
Man, all this news will confuse people like hell, someone might end up having a stroke from it
At least the Turks has developed its own indigenous jet engine for this KAAN (TF35000 by Tusas Engine Industries/TEI), more embargo-proof than KF-21.From what I’ve been able to gather and analyse on the ground here, the KAAN deal is still just an MoU, and the figure of 48 aircraft hasn’t been finalised yet. Interestingly, we originally planned to have 48 KF-X/IF-X units before all the drama surrounding the project.
So, I think that after everything we’ve been through, we’ll probably end up acquiring only 12 to 16 KF-21s as a goodwill gesture, and shift our attention and resources to the KAAN instead.

Don’t worry, you will get a maniac Kaan, which is matured more shaped, with canon and maybe a TVC. Maybe.I just hope Kaan 2nd prototype more good looking
That will be quite something.and maybe a TVC
I hope so, I'm waiting for that second prototypeDon’t worry, you will get a maniac Kaan, which is matured more shaped, with canon and maybe a TVC. Maybe.
Imagine F-22 makes a baby with F-35. The ‘baby’ would looks like Kaan.![]()
But KF21 already entered production, while KAAN still in development and will take 10 years to deliver 48 unit to Indonesia (kalau jadi dan tidak ada perubahan).i dont see any chance in this admin or next admin we acquired KFX, chance is kaan and maybe J-35 if China can fast deliver. From mado x, he said actually we want get kick out from that project but Kor still don't want us leave idk why they not kick out us lol, maybe they need our market and to test planet and gather data for futher block
