Most countries, like us and India are under pressure from US about dealings with Russia. (China is also amongst the countries being pressurised) As Russia is one of 3 countries subject to CAATSA sanctionable list, we are probably trying to cut our dependency on energy and also please US during...

Yes. I believe the version on Atak 2 doesn’t even have FADEC, even though it should.

The only 3000HP class engine produced by RR was Turbomecha RTM322, which actually develops 2600-3000HP . But the complete production line has been given to Safran now. So Safran is not going to sell them to us.

According to latest news coming out from the region; Due to excessive bombing by the Russians there is no engine coming out of the Motor Sich factory that are related to turbofans. However the helicopter engine production, specifically the TV3-117VMA-SBM1V engine, seems to be still alive...

Sorry mate! But; Two negatives in your sentence makes it meaningless. Did you mean? Same reason why people don't see SU 57 as a stealth fighter, since it is not regarded as one.

If I had known the answer to that question, I would have been working for LM and Boeing. Simple answer is : Probably all the above. As per @Pokemonte13 ’s post, the materials used and geometry of the plane’s surfaces has been so well engineered that the radar waves do not return back to...

Most of the current J20 stock carry AL31 class Russian engines. These engines are not powerful enough to carry a big plane like J20. Planes that has WS15 have a low life expectancy. When they were first being fitted to the planes it was 500hours. Then according to their own statements a year...

Can you remind me pls? My understanding is: -It is overhyped by the US and China itself. -Engine still suspect. -Too big as a fighter plane. -It’s stealthiness can be questionable. - It is being produced in high quantities to give quantitative edge to Chinese rather than qualitative. -...

@Strong AI , What @Test7 has written is valid to a certain extent. But, if we check the examples given, you will find that the X36 had a limited canard structure to help with manoeuvrability and had no vertical stabilisers to further improve and compensate canards’ adverse impact on stealth. It...

Correct. Just to add a few more points: 1. That canard would detract from the stealthiness of the plane. It is there to give the plane more manoeuvrability. But since without cutting edge AI interface to give one to one dogfighting capability, the plane doesn’t need to be that much...

I understand your dissatisfaction. But if we have to go by your logic then f404 on a heavy -14000kg- Gripen shouldn’t work either. Yet it can easily do +9g and -3g manoeuvres. Also flies at 2mach. If the airframe is designed properly, KE with “composite” main structure and 5-6000lbf dry thrust...

No idea. But according to our manager a team should be given a certain minimum time to become available again for a second match. And the Turkish team was not given this time.

Did you not read about why they played that bad? Apparently according to our manager, FIBA made them play at 08.00 in the morning and gave them no time to rejuvenate their depleted energy levels after the last match. Yet Sweden had plenty of time. But their shitty plan didn't work. Sweden still...

According to latest news, due to sanctions applied to Turkish defence entities by USA, the T70 production has almost come to a halt. There are a limited amount of helicopters that can be produced. Apart from that, the licence agreement with Sikorsky was coming to an end anyway; and we couldn’t...

Happy 30th August Victory day to all Turkish members.

Yes! I had mentioned this before that they may be thinking about using the TF10000 for afterburner take off only (like Concorde used to do) to give more payload capacity. But for that they need to alter the Anka-3 engine housing and re design. Besides TF10000 is not around yet.

Bro, Baykar had stockpiled a good number of engines prior to the war breaking out and/or while they could still buy the engines from Motor Sich. That factory has been bombed so many times as it is in the middle of the war zone that according to news coming through, it is not physically possible...

That is why they are made to manoeuvre during mid course and in some cases during terminal phase. That makes it near impossible to track and eventually establish radar lock. The only anti missile systems that may work are: Arrow 3, when exo-atmospheric hypersonic missiles slow down before...

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/kaan-prototiplerinin-ucus-tarihi-aciklandi/ Mr Demiroglu has made new statements about first flights of KAAN’s PT2 and PT3. He said “PT2 should fly in April 2026 and PT3 a month or so later”. He has also made statements about the Anka-3 drone. Most important...
