You know how our elders always say "these youngins are so smart, they grow up faster these days", because they can use phones and stuff? Well, those same phones, getting your information from 10-second instagram reels, 10 minute youtube summaries made by some high school dropout from Ohio...

Well, I think on that we can only speculate. No. 2 & 3 seems to be out of the question considering the stability of the flight and landing; and the list you provide doesn't exhaust options. The feeling I get from listening to Temel Kotil is that they have tried to fly it before a couple of times...

If load and durability tests on the ground are done already, or after they've been finished the prototype is of no other use anyway so just better get out of it what you can instead of it gathering dust. edit: and here we have official confirmation that it will continue to fly:

well why would they just fly it once? if they want to gather data, they will want to gather it in a myriad of conditions, in transonic, supersonic regimes, with and without afterburners, stall and post-stall maneuvers, different environmental conditions, and in general flight envelope expansion...

I thought the whole reason they made this prototype flight-worthy is to gather data in flight to have a more rigorous CDR phase to achieve design freeze faster later?

From William Logans and Sir Robert Harts of the world to this. And these people are stupid enough to think this level of incisiveness of intellect will help them subjugate others like their forefathers did just because they are their spawn; pfft.

not comparable imo. I think the chances of a 35,000 lb thrust domestic engine being ready in 2028 are almost zero. Maybe the core of a souped up F110 can be ready which probs would be close to 35k lb thrust (considering what was achievable with F110-GE-132), but that's the extent of it.

I don't know if it was mentioned here but Temel Kotil in his interview mentioned that there will be 7 more prototypes. https://bigpara.hurriyet.com.tr/haberler/genel-haberler/tusas-genel-muduru-kotil-kaan-dunyanin-en-hizli-biten-ucak-projesi_ID1479663/

In light of that article about KAAN in that german rag, I was reminded of this which shows how consistent our European friends are in their propaganda campaign against Turkey on a governmental level...

Interesting that this pkk sympathizer has gone to so much length to search far and wide to find the only two people who would bad mouth KAAN because they are fired for leaking info and have also probably similar ethnic resentment. Goes to show how butthurt the institutions who employ him must...

goddam it I came here to ask if anybody knew what were the level of our bilateral relations with Djibouti and Eritrea and this happens lmao. But still anybody have any other additional information regarding our relations with these two other countries?

Almost teared up this time with this video. I can't remember the last time I cried so a big achievement lol.

First it's "another Qaher 313", then the prototype emerges and it's "it will be years before it flies, if it does", after it flies it's now "not stealth but reduced observability", tomorrow it's gonna be engine is this and that. To summarize, they will never hand it to you if they're not decent...

coolest still imo:

If we're gonna waste money (which we do a lot), I'd much rather it be wasted on an AC to gain know-how and retain technician and engineering knowledge continuity from Anadolu, rather than it be wasted on much more unnecessary things.

This is only the start of the nosedive of Japan, if they don't alter immigration policy drastically.

He's Tucker Carlson; his positions are known. He's part of the new wave of populist right, a movement which is white-supremacist to its core so it sees the main conflict between the West and the rest; and in this formulation they think there's no reason why white Christian Russia should side...

I think there's some merit in what you say, but it puts all the onus of the direction and level of bilateral relations on a single incident instigated by the Turkish side, which has happened in a vacuum and not in the context of the history of the relations that has shaped it until it has...

These things you are aware of, and emphasize, are because of the climate your media has created by the stuff they emphasize and by the stuff they omit. Nobody lives in a vacuum, and your idea of the causes of strain in Turkish-German relations only being inferred personally from a singular press...

Like always, the limits of the western mind can only stretch to the borders of western media coverage landscape. You know the narrative of your own side only. We know that but we also know how Germany has become a safe haven for most of the highest ranking Gulenists, people who cheated on tests...
