They do use it

Yes, paired with F-16 Özgür/70, it can hold until TF-X

Well probably, they show what they are allowed to

keep in mind that MSB and SSB are not the same org. But this shows that SSB is very hopefull (they probably state these with their knowledge of the project) about TF-X, which is very good. But, i dont know if MSB will listen to the SSB

The thing is, those "6th"gen designs wont come up until 2040s. And what is the 6th gen? What is the defining factor? AI? Power gen? PD? Drone Control? Better Avionics? or combination of some of these? Now lets take a look at your 2050 statement. 1- TF-X will definetly be mature in 2050s, the...

Also, seems like the tests of Korean powerpacks were successful as he stated that we are trying to get Powerpacks.

Not really

US solved all of the problems except cost and fuel efficiency

No, transmission is the hardest part, it is very complicated and needs to stand against 70 tons while propelling the tank

Well, it is already done to some T-155 Fırtına's and M113s. I don't see a big problem for Altay except for some time (integration process)

Not really, if you are talking about solely electric with enormous batteries, yes. But we are talking about Diesel-electric

Our problem is not the engine, it is the transmission. That's why we are talking about diesel-electric hybrid systems, that were proven to work by MKEK in M113 and T-155 Fırtına

they can use ATOM and they are connected to the radar system

Well, cruise power of AI-25TLT has less thrust than TF-6000s power (~6000lbf) divided by 4, but airframe and intakes affect it a lot

We also should not forget that intakes exist

Edit: Al-322f is for the Supersonic variant, not the high-subsonic. Also, the high-subsonic one will use Al-25TLT, Licensed by TEI, so no problem of engine stock. So, it could be possible that with TF-6000, it can supercruise, I am no aerodynamics expert so don't really know about the airframe...

Yes, because you don't really need to be supersonic, you use supersonic for dodging long range missiles now, and MİUS doesn't really need it as it can probably do 25g's. Also, subsonic is better for loitering time, there is a reason why F-35 did not have the criteria of supercruise

Well, the supersonic one will use the TF-6000, we have enough (they said that it was a lot, and probably they have the license to produce them). Not a problem for now

Not really, non parallel canards to the ground does not effect stealth in a bad way. Yeah, they do increase the area but by tilting it upwards (Fe: J-20), you make the canards stealthy. Common examples: J-10, EF, Rafale, J-20

Kızılelma for QE? would be good tho
