KAAN engine studies started even before 2017. That is more than 11 years. If TF-6000 is a success as @TheInsider says. There is no practical reason for the TF-35000 or something around that thrust not being operational by 2028. In wartimes new engines are produced much faster, as in WW2, not 11+...

Yes exactly. This guy kept insisting you can't see anything if they are not giving you their full radar blast for 10 messages despite various examples I provided that debunked his posts. Sheesh. But in order to achieve this you need 2 things, very high quality (low noise) receiver modules (as...

Breaking news for you: All light SCATTERS! Even highest quality, most focused light (laser) scatters. That is how a camera can see a focused laser wave that is not directed to it. Did you bother to read my post? https://fstoppers.com/education/increased-risk-lasers-mirrorless-cameras-328090

You are the one that brought up RWR not me. I was talking about F22 AESA Receiver modules that are sensitive to radar waves from others' transmitters while running in silent mode. RWR is a more basic version with receivers only. But principles are the same there too...

If you say so: This is what google says though. "The receiver periodically scans across the frequency band and determines various parameters of the received signals, like frequency, signal shape, direction of arrival, pulse repetition frequency, etc." Not different from a camera or an eye...

AESA isn't undetectable. It has lower probability since it is like a laser not a light bulb with side reflectors like older radars. An actual F-22 pilot said these things about F22 in Quora. Couldn't find the exact post. But AESA is a narrow, focused wave like a laser is. Yes you will surely...

@TheInsider F-22 radar can see radar signals of all the F-35s flying below it through R modules while in passive mode without transmitting anything even when F-35 AESA (most modern hard to detect) are targeting other planes. Similar to Sentinel satellites seeing Sx00 radar signals from all the...

Bunch of blah, blah. You won't learn anything useful or new by reading about Turkish defense industry from these lame passive-aggressive foreign website articles. Twitter and this site are all you need.

TEI, Akşit went silent suddenly after testing TF-6000. Is there a problem with turbofan? Does anyone here know anything. Like real thrust, TIT, etc.?

@TheInsider wow you really have the best info. Thank you very much. Do you have any insider info on TF-6000 tests? I am most curious about that. What is the real life maximum thrust? Maximum heat reached in the hot section? Were there any problems that could affect, delay KAAN's engine. Since...

As you know, even 4.5th gen F-16s are getting weaker laser weapons via pods. Next generation F-35s are almost certainly going to have destructive, longer range laser weapons. Without ignoring these developments, what do you think about having a 3rd generator on a future 6th gen. KAAN for...

I agree near total silence about project technical details is concerning to me also. But that is how it should be in defense projects. Secrecy in these projects is the rule. We were spoiled rotten during 100th year celebrations. Now we are having withdrawal symptoms: Nervousness, agitation...

Any moron can write an article in nationalinterest digital toilet paper.

The difference is American Reapers are getting shot down while trying to get a closer look and by underestimating Houthis. Our Anka, TB-2-3 series can't reach 40.000 loaded let alone Reaper's 50.000 feet even when they know for sure it is not safe to fly at 20-30K in mountanious areas. Akıncı...

You need at least 40.000 feet at all times with full load. 33.000 feet empty isn't enough in mountaneous Kandil area even against PKK MANPADs, neither is the speed against turbojet missiles of Iran and neither is the self protection capability and situational awareness against radars of...

MKE WINS WARS by making ammunition in millions, while other flashy defense tech companies win twitter likes for a few prototypes that won't last more than a few days in a real peer war. Artillery and men firing at each other is how wars are fought once TB2s, jets, tanks, missiles etc. run out...

Guys after I checked the avionot account had to delete, sorry. This avionot guy put a picture of first prototype while talking about second being almost ready. Why are our people like this. Sheesh.

If you must communicate by spitting like you say, spit on the faces of the tens thousands of coup plotters throughout Turkish history, traitors in the Turkish army. FETO wasn't the first won't be the last that turned the weapons and power trusted to them against the goverment and the nation...

The base is a nuclear base. Control of the nukes belong to America, despite co-ownership lies. There are even barbed wire to keep Turks out, inside our own base. Turkish officers' have a tradition of betraying our nation with coups almost every ten years. It is not as rosey and under control as...
