    This is probably not TCG Anadolu this is TCG Trakya. BTW Fac-55 design is indeed chosen as the design of Turk-type FAC. What SSB shared yesterday is not a placeholder picture. The end product will be similar to the pictures we saw in the video. Prototype construction will start this year.

    TR F-16 Özgür | Hürkuş - Fighter Trainer Aircraft Projects

    IMHO studies on Hürkuş should continue. An unmanned CAS version might be a good move. Without the whole cockpit(Hürkuş-C has cockpit armor which weighs a lot), pilots, and life support systems, and with massive composite use, a huge amount of ammo can be carried on Hürkuş-C. Such a UCAV can...

    Live Conflict Ukraine-Russia War

    Probably under 10k but It doesn't matter. Germany, Poland, UK has a big US presence. If the US wants to intervene it can be done in a very short time. I think NATO should send airforce and missile defense systems. Tell Russia that any fighter that enters Ukrainian airspace will be shot down...

    TR F-16 Özgür | Hürkuş - Fighter Trainer Aircraft Projects

    CAS limitations can be addressed with the use of composite parts and advances in miniature lethal munitions. Currently, Hürkuş has a very low composite part ratio. Over 1 ton of weapons can easily be carried with Hürkuş with a little effort. MTOW of Hürkuş-C is 4550kg Fuel Capacity is 544kg...

    TR F-16 Özgür | Hürkuş - Fighter Trainer Aircraft Projects

    This is wrong the problem with Hürkuş is it has an unnecessary amount of performance so much that certain maneuvers are very hard to do at very low speeds. The plane is optimized too much for high speeds and agility. This is not good for rookie pilots in training.

    No, it is the same TS-1400 engine. Kotil talks about the completion of the certification process as he is the producer of the helicopter. Until the certification process finishes that engine will always stay as a prototype as no aircraft can fly with an engine without a license. 2024 date was...

    Russia sent evacuation orders for the families of the embassy personnel in Lithuania and Letonia. If Kaliningrad is attacked as a retaliation for the invasion of Ukraine Russia might invade those countries to reach the Kaliningrad.

    The US sent a very soft response to Russia about Russian demands but that won't be useful. Russia's accept my demands attitude was only a gesture. Russia will invade Ukraine regardless of what is written in the official answer. BTW the US urged Russia not to disclose what is written in the...
