Why should they make a new mockup while the actual prototype is counting days to emerge. Must be for ground test as it does not have a pitot tube on the nose or anywhere.

The cost of transporting gas from a longer distance must be born by the vendor country, meaning less profit for them. Their other option is selling gas to Russia at cheap prices which they do.

Detonations engines and scramjets come to mind. Now that the ramjet work is ripe we can expect progress in these two areas. It may still be at a very readiness level but once you have your one foot in the door you can as well get both of them before long. I am wishing for detonation engines for...

What if they manage to make it such that it does, it is a small plane, anyway.

Military Procurement Chief Ismail Demir said so on TV yesterday but he didn't elaborate what type of UAVs. The ship enables operation of 10 UAVs in the air at any given time and the remaining planes can be stowed on the below deck.

There are additional carrier ships planned but these planes are smaller and they say they can accomodate between 50-100 UAVs on the ship.

TEI have been making parts for turbofan engines for ages. So they have nothing to wait for on the production side. It does not make a whole lot of a set back if the first batches of engines aren't up to snuff. The Kızılelma the first plane the TF6000 engine can power is currently powered with a...

LHD Anadolu will have Bayraktar TB3, MIUS/Kızılelma and Hürjet Naval operating from it, hopefully. Quantum leap happening in that department.

Those engines are not stealth so the F35 will still have some stealth advantage over the early TFX. And Hürjet is not a big deal as it is not a stealth design.

Panama Canal has a certain width. There was enlargement work going on.

The closest we've got to turbofan engine self reliance. Most critical short term project at the moment, on par with Kızılelma.

Fantastic! I also want to mention the discovery of the first two dimensional plastic molecule that makes materials stronger than steel. This can change the world...

TS1400 was a first, TF6000 is a second which is supposed to take less time with the gained experience. I would say by the end of 2025 we can see the engine flying on Kızılelma.

Turkish speakers will know this. It is short for saat (hour).

The Canal will take billions of dollars of investment money while the Presidential House only takes millions. MIT headquarters are no smaller then the Presidential House. Defense Department's house will not be smaller than the Presidential House either. Türkiye is doing what Türkiye is needing...

And the whole country gets ruled from a villa house, such a shame.

261 days to TFX roll out MIUS flight Hürjet flight Moment of truth is fast approaching, once the airframe flies well the rest is easy.

The academician calculates a plane's maneuverability from its geometry which is the same calculation for every plane. So given the geometry they can calculate. That's probably because they can not buy the TFX, or not just yet. Those countries have an umbilical cord tied to the US and F35 is the...

There is nothing to be mad about, for your satisfaction the nose section is different.

That is a small difference, lift coefficient can not be too different from plane to plane among the same class of planes. This is a rough assessment anyway.
