Turkiye can and will upgrade all of its F-16s. Other than the AESA radar everything is currently ready. The prototype fighter is actively flying and qualified with Özgür modernization package other than the radar. That is said multiple times by the president of the SSB. So why Turkiye asks for...

Not really. There are differences between S-300 and S-400 as much as there are similarities.

I doubt the US will accept. We should bring this to the US take it or leave it style.

This is not a good comparison. It will replace Penguin but it is not a Penguin equivalent. Penguin has a solid rocket motor and the most modern Penguin version has a range of 55km+. Kuzgun-ER will have turbojet. Penguin weighs 370kg even heavier than OMGSF while Kuzgun-ER will probably weigh...

Those gatherings became a norm with the so-called peace process and AKP does nothing against those gatherings even today. Interior Minister Süleyman Soylu is sleeping on the job. He should have sent the police.

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/milli-ramjet-itkili-hava-hava-fuzesi-gokhanin-son-durumu/ Interesting bits of info are released indirectly. T0 was started when MoD Hulusi Akar undisclosed the project by revealing its name and type(Ramjet A-A missile). Gökhan will be a Mach 4+ missile rather...

The best Turkiye can do is to deploy S-400 in the EHTES training field in Konya AFB.

No stalling. The project goes on full steam ahead. The dome of the first reactor is attached which is a big milestone. The first reactor is expected to start trials in 2023. Then another reactor will go online every year.

OMGFS is a 300kg+ missile it isn't light at all. Kuzgun-TJ, at 100kg achieves its long-range by gliding a good portion of its flight path rather than using TJ propulsion. It is designed to be released from UAVs (but it will make its way to choppers and later supersonic fighters) Kuzgun-ER won't...

It is updated other than the visuals.

Aselsan Korhan 35mm Weapon System for IFVs. One of the best turrets in the world in its class. https://www.aselsan.com.tr/KORHAN_35_mm_Weapon_System_7863.pdf

IMHO the plan is STOBAR Hurjet(2027) and UCAV(2025) for immediate needs and an electromagnetic launch system capable TF-X and UCAV for future(2030+) platforms.

Lol is this really a question? There are engineers on LinkedIn and the job description on their profiles says they are working for the TF-6000, TS-1400 project, etc.

The US still doesn't understand anything. The US thinks it is dealing with a nation like Greece or the Baltic states. Turkiye is not a vassal to the US anymore. The US can't understand/comprehend that. Either the US will offer us the same seat on the table that the UK, France etc has or we will...

True. The tail extension was not there so it looked to me as Bombardier 6000.

No, it won't be a CATOBAR fighter. It will most likely be STOBAR and institutions are also evaluating the possibility of an electromagnetic launch system.

TF-6000 is designed for unmanned systems and using engines on unmanned systems is easier because it is military hardware and no human is involved so there are fewer certification problems. At some point, the engine will be mounted on an unmanned system, and certification for manned military...

There is no STOVL variant for Hurjet. There is a naval variant and studies continue on the background but it is not very high on the priority list. TAI concentrated on two milestones regarding Hurjet. Maiden flight in 2023 and delivery in 2025(training version). Any possible naval variant will...

F405 Adour is an old engine. TF-6000 will be a very modern engine and I think it will be a very compact engine.
