China's aviation story is long but the world moves faster now.
Political tensiones can make the norm of today a thing of the past.
If you can make planes work there will be users not because you are the best but because you are there.
The poorest quality you can afford to make today will be better than the quality that was the norm 15 years ago.

China still uses lots of foreign parts and pays development cost on top of it so the margins are thinner that it can be.
Western makers charge the high cost of living in their countries on their products.
Türkiye has lower cost advantage with faster development speeds.
More than likely when we have the product ready to ship we will find riders ready to ride.

But the path is the same. Currently, how many aviation material suppliers/MROs are there in Turkey? Are there any Airbus/Boeing commercial aircraft final assembly plants in the country? The answer I got is that the former exists but the latter does not. Moreover, when I searched, I found that the TRJ project has already been launched, so the decision-makers have made the right decision to first attempt to build a regional jet model, just like Brazil, China, and Japan.

The project was cancelled in 2017 because it was “economically unfeasible”. OK :oops:

We assembled F16 in the past but this does not count I think.
But who needs somebody else's assembly line to start their own project.
In this day and age you can do it your way.

The assembly line is used for training worker and engineer, it will need thousands of worker to product a plane and all of them need to be well educated. Otherwise it will need to hire them from another country, just like US transfered the TSMC to Arizona.
I'm not going to deny the future to build a plane, but you have to take a plan and know the cost.

Turkey’s indigenous aero-engine development activities are being consolidated under the TEI TEKNOLOJİ umbrella

▪️ The TF35000 and TS3000 engine projects, as well as materials development work, currently being carried out within TEI will be reorganised under the umbrella of TEI TEKNOLOJİ, TRMOTOR’s new name

▪️ Auxiliary power unit and engine programmes currently being carried out within TRMOTOR will also continue under TEI TEKNOLOJİ

▪️ The TS1400 and PD170 engine programmes, meanwhile, will continue to be carried out within TEI

📌 With this new organisational model, TEI will focus on production, delivery, product support, mature engine programmes and international collaborations

📌 TEI TECHNOLOGY, meanwhile, will specialise in proprietary engine development, auxiliary power units, materials development and advanced R&D activities
