The question is what stipulations are RR putting forward for being part of the deal?

If it were KSA alone it would be easy to block but add Türkiye to that it will be hard for the german government to resist.

The hardest part to make of any turbine engine is the power turbine blades which needs to take huge heat and pressure and g-forcess and stand it for many run cycles and hours. What the engine maker says for that part of the TF-6000 is that the making of those parts is completed already in time...

I take our officials' words as the most reliable source of information and bet on 2028 as the year when we fly our Kaan with our domestic engine in trials. But I would expect it to happen even earlier as the world is heading towards even more troubled times and we want to be prepared in time for...

I don't mean to be catalogueing many things. Personally I would only chart a few impactful and iconic products that make a success story for all of us to watch. A manpad tank killer is one such weapon but platform launched ones are not that iconic. Karaok has not made a succes story yet but we...

Reliable simulation software only emerged in the last couple of decades. We are living in different times.

Imagine what happens at wartime. Military industrial complex can use some overload test to prepare for wartime. At wartime engineers will be lucky for just losing sleep. It is OK to fail if you are speeding. More prototypes are in production already, so there won't be major setbacks. Somebody...

If you guys provide the data I will do the charting.

Karaok countries; the world is a lonely place. @Ripley

It will not be required to defend itself, perhaps a couple of WVR missiles can be provided for targets of opportunity. But as long as it stays in the air it will provide radar capability to other assets. Several of such planes can create a wall of radar coverage. For possible additional power...

Wouldn't Akıncı's nose radar be usefull for this purpose?

Why not, but it should get exciting before we start watching.

It is also called "aborted landing" in aviation.

I did not claim that they are better. It is enough if they are satisfactory. Because of China and Russia entering the market the US and Europe market shares will shrink and they will no make good revenues anymore which will effect their innovatve edge. On the other hand once we are done making...

I don't think so, the west is on the decline, China and Russia are on the path to being independant in aviation. This means there will be 4 sources of passenger planes instead of 2. We can diversify our procurement and get better terms in deals. We should not buy 355 planes from vendors who will...

Russian passenger planes along with engines are progressing very well at the moment. If we should allocate some of our plane procurement to Russia we can be on the winning side. We can use Russian planes on routes where western planes are not really required.

A plane is married to an engine, then where are the brides.

What is too hard to understand that Mr Akşit tells about an engine in a class of engines that need to be compared with its peers in the class, which is production twin engines that is in use and not only for demonstration.

TB3's stall speed should be around 140kmh, depends on the loaded weight.

President Erdoğan: I would think that there maybe a different engine effort for Kızılelma than the TF6000. What is hapening with the Black Sea Shield now, I wonder. In this statement of Erdoğan, he mentions Aselsan as the optics maker but never mentions TEI for engines and talks in a manner...
