    AKP is digging its own grave. People are fed up with this kind of FETO/Gulenist operations. AKP is using the exact same methods as Gulenists. This is a huge mistake.

    This is a good development hopefully it will further boost the popularity of him and his party. AKP is losing control because polls are not good for them. AKP lost another 4 points due to the renewed peace process. Ekrem İmamoğlu might also be taken into custody.

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Neither the F110 nor the F119 is an absolutely high-end engine right now. Turkiye can develop and produce an engine better than F110.

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Who did this? This is different from what I expect from TF-35000. For example, I expect a bypass ratio of around 0.7. 0.8 to 1.2 is too high. TF-35000 won't have a thrust lower than 36000 lbf ( It will have a wet thrust somewhere between 160 to 170 kN/36000 to 38000 lbf)

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    3 I don't want to tell this here but Turkiye is in a backdoor diplomacy process with the Chinese through Pakistan for a backup plan. If the US refuses to supply F110 Turkiye wants to secure Chinese engines at least for Pakistan but Turkiye also evaluates a doomsday scenario in which the US...

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    There are two different tenders. Development tender and production tender. TRMotor won the first one and IP rights will be owned by TRMotor. Both TRMotor and TEI(Majority shares) are owned by TUSAS so TUSAS is developing its own engine for its own product. TEI is a critical technology provider...

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    There won't be a Tempest before 2040. There is no point to talk about a fighter on the paper. We should first see how the project unfolds.

    TR HÜRJET-Advanced Jet Trainer/ Light attack aircraft

    I think the light fighter version of Hurjet should have an F-414 engine or we should ask RR to develop a single-engine version of EJ-200. It can achieve 1.6 Mach max speed with F414/EJ-200 and slight design optimizations.

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    There is no increase in the bid. The current timeline of the national engine envisions the engine integration in 2029 followed by flight tests and the delivery of the first KAAN with the national engine in 2032. There is also no change for the delivery date of Kaan with F110. It is still the end...

    It is easier and cheaper to upgrade the first 4 Milgem to Istif class standards and build 4 additional Hisar class OPVs to replace Milgems.

    TAIS consortium started keel laying of Milgem-9 (İstif-5). I expect at least 2 Istif to be launched next year(Milgem-9 and 10) and another 2 in 2027(11 and 12), and all of them to be fully commissioned before the end of 2028. Picture of Milgem-8 (İstif-4). I don't know if this is a recent photo.
