TAI KAAN as a 5+ generation fighter would have to have an engine of at least 18000 lbf to remain competitive, in principle 80 kn dry and 36000 lbf 160 kn with an afterburner. I don't know whether our engineers will be able to achieve this so easily in 6-8 years - that's a lot. Is the TEI TF 6000...

As the previous speaker said, since TAI is state-owned. The focus is not the export, but the focus is the development of weapon systems that Turkey needs to be able to defend itself. If you like, you can even say that TAI is developing a reference platform for everyone, so that companies have...

Why are the PKK positions not completely destroyed? The drones monitor the entire region 24 hours a day. There must be enough reconnaissance with night vision and thermal vision to identify these targets by now. These fucking people can't just sit in the cave for 24 hours...

Korean aircraft contain many US components, from the engine to the AESA radar, etc. Here South Korea would get an export ban from the USA. Either we then develop a much smaller KAAN, e.g. KAAN S from 2028/29, with a Delta Canard design and with a single jet. Or we take a Russian fighter jet...

There are many US components in the Korean aircraft, from the engine to the AESA radar, etc. Here South Korea would get an export stop from the USA. Either we then develop a much smaller KAAN, e.g. KAAN S from 2028/29, with a detailed canard design and single jet. Or we use the Russians e.g...

Well, there must be a reason why you rarely hear about TAI drones. It also seems that the export of these drones is much more restrictive than that of Baykar drones. TAI and the Turkish state are deliberately not actively promoting them. It also seems that these drones are geared more towards...

Absolutely right and that is also the core of the conflict between France and Turkey. France is afraid of losing its interests in Africa, but this has less to do with Turkey and its allegedly aggressive behavior in the new markets in Africa. Rather, France has gambled away a lot in Africa; as an...

You have misunderstood something, it was about what the French mean or think. That Turkey's current weapons technology is produced with the help of the EU and the USA. Which is totally wrong, otherwise they would have access to almost all goods, at the moment they have almost no access. As you...

And how is that supposed to happen? Nobody supplies us anymore, neither the EU nor the USA, except for total exceptions such as the GE F110 129 engine, and here too it is written in the stars whether we will be allowed to use it and build it under license 😂. They must really be suffering from a...

You can see how mendacious Europe is, and this is not due to the democratic deficits that Turkey is accused of. It's because you simply don't dance to their tune. Backbone has really become a foreign word today.

Compared to the other countries, this is very poor, our super computers don't have to be in the top twenty supercomputers in the world, but 250000-30000 CPU cores Intel/AMD would be very realistic targets for TÜBITAK, TAI and Baykar. If these could be networked with each other, you would have...

For a few million euros, you can build your own supercomputer, e.g. in the form of several thousand GeForce 4090 graphics cards, even with the retail graphics card versions. The Chinese do this all the time, despite sanctions, and the Americans are totally annoyed by it. It's a shame that TAI...

The Hürjet and TCG Anadolu were not commissioned as a project yesterday, and I think 2-3 years until the first production aircraft is not unrealistic. The point is that the Hürjet and Özgur I & II project must be completed in the 2-3 years so that we do not lose our clout. So instead of blocking...

One should not rely on others and not spend a cent more in the USA & Europe. Instead, use the money you would pay for the Eurofighter/F-16 to invest directly in the Hürjet & F-16 Özgur I & II and accelerate them to the absolute maximum. So that everything is completed in 2-3 years at the latest...

There's nothing that can't be improved, and there's certainly room for 600 -700 km/h with the turboprobs.

I see it the same way, the Hürküs definitely makes sense as a trainer, but as a combat aircraft with human pilots it makes no sense at all and would be too dangerous. If anything, it makes sense as a combat drone. As well as the Hürküs (as a drone) and Kizilelma are or would generally not be...

Serious question: what's wrong with modifying Hürküs as a drone version? Remove the entire cockpit and install drone hardware + SATCOM. This could save weight and even install an additional fuel tank inside, which would certainly make 6-8 hours of flight time possible for combat missions. As it...

But we won't be able to sell military versions of Hürküs or Hürjets to other countries if the engines are from Pratt & Whitney, General Electric or Eurojet. You could possibly get around this by unofficially setting up a defence company in a foreign country somewhere in Africa, e.g. South...

What about the Engine? We should be able to produce turboprop engines without any problems by now. As far as I know, the one from Hürkus is from Pratt & Whitney, so it would make sense to switch to domestic engines here too in order to reduce the production price and increase the profit margin...

It's not really about ethnicity, we should also stop making these people worse than they are. It is not a reproach to anyone. But it is a fact that almost all peoples were defeated in modern times, in this case in the early 20th century. Morocco = colonial country France / Spain Algeria =...
