Orpheus engine is 6th generation and will probably have everything that the TFX needs given that it provides power at the level required by TFX. If RR introduced this engine quickly with the intention of offering it to TFX then technically it should be acceptable. Unless it comes with...

We do not have a produced Altay tank yet but by 2024 we will have an industry that will be able to make any tank in any configuration. Imagine the BATU engine paired with an electric motor they can power tanks much heavier than Altay. Or maybe some unmanned sea vehicles that can swim and dive.

Manned flight is a hard job so it will only happen once we can launch around 10 tons of load to Low Orbit where space stations live. Perhaps a crew vehicle that will spend a week or two in orbit and glide back down can be made then.

We are buying knowhow.

Look how SpaceX is compressing time, it only depends on how much you try.

I know quite a bit about their achievements. If we can find some oil and gas anytime soon Türkiye can even catch up with India in a decade with our own resources.

You can build it up, when there is a will there is a way.

What is the reason why you think so, they have cheaper human capital costs or what?

Not really ambitious. Technology improves exponentially. It only depends on a steady flow of high dollars into this field. With cooperation of several countries headed by Türkiye this kind of a timeline can happen. It takes a keen leadership though which we don't lack any.

Do you guys remember my post a couple days ago about where space capabilities of Türkiye needs to improve nonstop towards, like 50m high and 400 ton launch rockets to get to Geostationary orbit. Now they finally spit it out "yer eş zamanlı yörünge" which will be achieved with Şimşek-3. Seems...

So the rocket rocks !

Maps' links are in my signature, on mobile you can only see signatures in horizontal handheld position.

Maps updated with Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Togo.

There was a mention of TB2 sales to another African country recently, but we still don't know which one.

Uzbek MoD visits Baykar. Uzbekistan has not acquired Turkish drones yet.

TFX deserves such a dedicated house for itself. I am sure other projects get the attention they deserve too. Only someone from TAI can say definite words.

We do not know how much time each plane needs to spend in this station. If they spend a shorter time then more planes can be output from the line. If they spend more time then a smaller number of planes can be output. Additional capacity can always be created by expanding this space or creating...

Old tanks were upgraded with the same systems that will be used on Altay.

There is no definition of it but why make different facilities for different phases if this one already meets requirements. They can work 3 shifts if required which is the equivalent of 90 days on station in terms of daytime work alone. I am just speculating. Production is not for a certain...
