    Türkiye is also very late in the engine game. :) There are several reasons. First of all, these sectors were not entered in time. Cemal Gürsel, the coup plotter of May 27 1963, ordered the production of a domestic automobile (a.k.a Devrim Otomobili) prototype to divert public attention from...

    +1 There were probably two developments. 1- Foreign components could not be supplied for mass production. 2- Localization of foreign components used in the prototype was delayed due to budget cuts. Local components will be awaited for mass production.

    TR Turkiye's F-35 Project and Discussions

    I am not optimistic about this at all. I think the fact that RTE keeps making U-turns and doing them with the worst possible timing would prove me right.

    First of all, thanks for answer. I apologize again and ask a second question: Isn't going to periscope depth a dangerous action for submarines, as it increases the risk of being noticed? Because according to my estimates, this depth can be around 15 meters at most. I think it is much safer for...

    I don't know anything about marine systems. So I'll ask you to be tolerant with the question I'm going to ask now. Are periscopes still used in submarines?

    Turkiye had once made an offer to the Indonesia for Aksungur UCAV, saying "let's develop this together". They did not accept this. Then they saw that Aksungur UCAV was a quality product and also suitable for their needs, they paid cash and supplied it. What I mean is that we should not include...

    Is the United States protecting Taiwan? Or is Taiwan protecting the United States?

    For what? For chip production? NO. We have neither the infrastructure nor the trained expert workforce. Personally, the only development that would give me hope in this regard would be the establishment of an infrastructure that would mass-produce the chips of domestic AESA radars. I think that...

    Is the United States protecting Taiwan? Or is Taiwan protecting the United States?

    This idea won't work. Even if you move all of Hollywood's sets to Tunisia, for example, Tunisia can't be the center of the film industry. Because an industrial ecosystem is not just about infrastructure. It also consists of people and the business culture that those people have built over...

    If I were British Defence Secretary I would choose submarines. Ultimately they provide a nuclear deterrent.

    If it happens, it would be very good for us. We can both eliminate the shortage of heavy airlifter and provide great advertising for the Hürjet. Just as the Ukraine War served as "a billboard" for the TB-2s.

    Oh, mon Dieu! LOL Jokes aside, IMO reporting this invention is a mistake. We are giving unnecessary ideas to others.

    TECHINT Germany arrests 3 suspected China spies

    Why would China, which can make turbofan jet engines for fighters, need to spy on ship engines, which are much easier to produce?

    TR Attack & Utility Helicopter Programs

    @Yasar_TR I have a question for you. Could there be a meaningful increase in engine power if the TS-1400's hot sector turbine is fed with an axial compressor? Or is it necessary to design a new hot sector turbine to achieve a meaningful power increase?

    BTW, I think a company other than TEI needs to develop a turboprop engine using the core of the TS-1400 engine. For example Kale. We never know when the Canadians will be bullshitting again. It is unthinkable for Akıncı to remain without an engine.

    It's a reasonable guess. If we were talking about manned aircraft, it would be ridiculous to integrate these engines into aircraft 2 years after the first ignition. However, it is possible for unmanned aircraft, although it is a bit risky. There is no risk of pilot loss, in the worst case the...

    IMO, in the best case, there are probably enough engines for LRIP. This means approximately 50 Ukrainian engines in total for (KE+Anka-3).
