Super Simsek seems to heavy for IL170. Must be something else. Interestingly, Idealab is also developing IL1600.

Super Simsek: 35kg warhead/payload Parachute landing capability C-130 recovery being evaluated! Will act as target aircraft for Siper B2 tests Currently powered by a foreign engine (PBS Velka Bites). Idealab is working on a 600N thrust engine. IL600 currently under development.

Very odd landing, no?

KE and TCG Anadolu observed by Akinci! Looks surreal 😲

Another Hurjet test flight!

Wikipedia has a good overview of most of the polls being conducted. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opinion_polling_for_the_2023_Turkish_presidential_election Results are shown for 1st round and a potential 2nd round. Note that the average of polls shows a complete tie now. Erdogan is a master...

"Now there is a Turkey that has stood up and is a cure for humanity and the oppressed! We witnessed this in #TEKNOFEST2023 as well. I would like to express my gratitude to our beloved Nation, who are always with us. See you again in Ankara and Izmir..." I could see this guy as the future...

Updated with ATAK-2 first flight. Super Simsek first flight and Sub-ATMACA first test added to the list.

Will you stop your rant? Nearly half of all polls (often the larger ones) indicate that Erdogan will win.

True, maybe they’ll source a very small radar for it

Any idea of which radar we will see on Anka 3? Hope it is Murad.

could the gun have been further forward on this early prototype to help with balance and weight distribution? The prototype is obviously missing systems that would add weight to the front of the aircraft in later prototypes.

Interesting people observing the test. Could TS1400 be converted to a jet engine for ANKA III and KE? If yes, how quickly and how powerful?

Does not seem like TB2 will be able to carry 4xKagem. The munition seems to be too big for placing one on each hardpoint.

I don't think that's the case. It will be used for dog fights i.e. hunting F-35s 😈

I believe MAM L is selling for $30.000. I do not see export customers paying less than $100.000 for each Kagem.

Crazy it can be carried on the outer hard point! Also it is huge compared to TB2 :O

TEKNOFEST is really a gem. Sparking innovation and interest in fields that Turkiye needs to master in the next 10 years. Does anyone know how the propulsive landing competition went. any successful landings?

Could the May 1st surprise be the announcement of a partner country?
