    TR TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Hürjet has already gone through her PDR and CDR phases. For KAAN's case, they weren't even half way through PDR when they were assembling the forward fuselage. So there is a big difference there. Hürjet's development has been and will be relatively straight forward from a complexity standpoint...

    TR TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    P1 will look a bit different, as noted by the head engineer himself. I'm expecting some minor changes to the later prototypes.

    Baykar is currently conducting studies regarding the development of hydraulic actuators. The aircraft currently houses electronic actuators (similar ones can be spotted on the TB2, TB3 & Akıncı platforms) which might limit the aircraft's structural integrity during high g manoeuvres and/or...

    TR TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    We will come across an evolving platform but without much delays. As aforementioned, the aircraft is merely evolving. There won't be drastic changes to prototypes to address deficiencies, but there will in fact be changes as it is simply a natural consequence of the developmental approach TAI...

    TR TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Some design based aspects of the aircraft are set to change. Bare that in mind before coming to conclusions. Let it be the IWB or the aerodynamic configuration of the airframe.

    TR HÜRJET-Advanced Jet Trainer/ Light attack aircraft

    From what we ( @Radonsider ) understand, LRIP will be in order in 2025. Whereas mass production will commence in around 2028. So initial deliveries could still happen at the aforementioned dates.

    TR TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    I possess no info on the current state of TAI's civil aviation programs (most notably the aforementioned passenger aircraft, as it is most probably in very early stages of development). It's good to be back btw.

    As per İbrahim Sünnetçi, the ANKA-3 has not yet performed her maiden flight. A FF will eventually occur after the completion of at least 2 more taxi runs.

    They most likely knew it all along. Some of the aircraft's components are either not fit for flight, or they haven't been tested enough. They'll get there eventually.

    Flightline modifications ongoing. -The aircraft is currently on her nose and wing jacks. I believe this is the first time we've seen her in such a state after she was initially lowered onto her landing gears months ago. -Ejection seat has been disassembled. -Testing of the...

    TR F-16 Özgür | Hürkuş - Fighter Trainer Aircraft Projects

    It's not abandoned as far as I'm aware. The probability of that project being abandoned is also quite low in my personal opinion since the Air Force Command is nowadays interested in Hürkuş-2 and not Hürkuş-B.

    TR F-16 Özgür | Hürkuş - Fighter Trainer Aircraft Projects

    Parts production. Prototyping takes time. And TAI arguably has more important stuff in line.
