My mistake! Should have read it more carefully. KTF5500, surely for a UAV. As you mention if mature enough the prototype UAV should be capable to accommodate the prototype engine too.

ECRS-MK1 is actually built on the basic ECRS-MK0. There isn’t much difference between the two. But the MK1 has more developed T/R modules that allows it to be cooler and improve in performance. Electronic Attack facility is there. It allows for more intricate retrofitted EW and SAR capability...

Why shouldn’t they? KF21 is in a fairly mature state already as far as prototype testing goes. Turkiye is envisaging flying TF35000 on KAAN prototypes by 2028. How was EJ200 flown on Typhoons you reckon? First technology demonstrator flight was made in 1986. Then Typhoon proper flew in 1994...

Tusas, after such a long break, at their own admission, had lost most of their engineering staff and expertise that they had accumulated during F16 project. They needed new blood and experts to include in the team that was to develop KAAN. If Tusas went on the international job market and tried...

Keir Starmer says: “8billion pounds worth of work for the UK.“ For the provision of Typhoons He doesn’t say Turkiye is paying 8billion pounds for 20 planes. The cost breakdown will come in to open in the end. There will be spares, Engines and their spares, munitions like Meteors. Ground...

You have it here! Still in process of moving posts. When completed this will be the new thread.

BAE site claims that starting from 2028 they want to be in a position to produce Typhoons with the new ECRS-MK2 radar. “The UK’s commitment to these long-lead packages in support of series production reflects the growing confidence in the progress being made by UK Industry in developing this...

Atilla77 said: SavunmaSanayiST claims domestic munitions will be integrated on the acquired Eurofighters “Our munitions capable of being integrated to Typhoons” is a statement not quite what is meant in the sense you are describing. Normally if you want your munitions to be integrated, you...

Bro, although Typhoon can carry just in excess of 9000kg of payloads on its pylons, there is a limit per pylon. The most it can manage are: 2 x1300 kg Storm shadows or 2 x1400kg Taurus missiles both on inner pylons. But it has to be fitted with Aerodynamic Modification Kit to help with...

One shouldn’t over exaggerate the effectiveness of F35s. As soon as they start carrying anything (fuel tanks or large bombs that won’t fit in it’s IWB) under wings or belly they are no different than a 4.5th generation jet. Internal weapon bays may accommodate limited number of amraam missiles...

That news on Aksam doesn’t say there will be 74 Typhoons. Read that original news piece again. It says : instead of having newly manufactured planes we will buy ready second hand jets. “We wish to purchase some of the 40 plane order as ready second hand planes” İMALAT YERİNE HAZIR UÇAK...

https://ekonomi.haber7.com/ekonomi/haber/3574330-turkiyeye-2-ulkeden-34-ucak-eurofighter-filosu-geliyor This site seems it knows best!!! According to this site, Türkiye has more or less consolidated an agreement if last stage on the purchase of 24 Qatari and 10 Omani Typhoon jets is finalised...

What firepower? We all saw how inaccurate their ballistic missiles were. Their military has no effective strike capability. In 1967 and in 1973 we saw how heavily armed Arabs with total population of 45million and 60million respectively were decimated by an Israel made up of of 2.7 million...

You are free to disagree. But I too am free to say that Israel won the air war against Iran. Iran had no answers against Israel’s air dominance. Israel managed to intercept majority of Iran’s missiles. The ones that got through, hardly made an impression. Had there been an all out war including...

If a country’s airforce can fly in to enemy airspace unhampered and bomb any place at it’s leisure because they have already taken out top brass of enemy and destroyed the AD systems of that enemy, then that enemy has lost the war big time. They are like all their gates open ready to receive...

A Jew is a person of Jewish heritage he has inherited from his mother, and believes in the religion of Judaism. Yet a Zionist is a person who supports the movement for a Jewish state in the old Israelite lands. Not all Jews are Zionists, as people's views on Zionism vary, and the term can...

According to media sources, Omani Typhoons being Tranche-3 were programmed to upgrade to ECRS-MK2 radar. If, somehow Türkiye manages to buy Qatari Typhoons and a quantity from Oman, then in due course as our new production Typhoons start to join the fleet, the older ones can be upgraded to...

I agree with @TR_123456 about his comment on the KE being a joke with the current engines. KE need TF6000 at least. But definitely TF10000 to come to fruition. Anka-3 too needs TF6000 to perform as a 5th generation stealth plane. It may even benefit from using TF10000 if heavier take off loads...

If at the top right edge we are seeing Crimean peninsula, Sebastopol to Istanbul is ~345km. So by comparison it has to be 160 Nautical Miles from where the KE is.
