Twin engine is twice the maintenance. A powerful single engine usually gives more power for the same weight. It also opens the doors for a larger twin engine plane. Things can happen over time, new engines come out three years apart. So there is time for each engine to claim its own market both...

This whole shopping spree should turn into a Kaan sales boom going forward as today's sellers deserve it having handed over their fighters.

Fresh video talking about Anduril's Fury UCAV. 5000 lb weight Mach .95 speed Kızılelma is around 18750 lb for comparison

I want to see Kızılelma F16 or KE Hürjet teaming which can probably happen earlier than KE-EF and KE-Kaan teamings.

Kızılelma needs a better engine to be fully capable but even with a lesser engine it is fearsome as it is expendable.

Current state of range can be misleading as the radar is also developed domestically and its parameters are not probably finalized and can be modified with the limiting factor being the power supply. Or maybe even that is not the limiting factor as they can probably work the radar with more...

This milestone should put more pressure on the TF10000 development timeline

Who cares about how you look to the west? The world is a different place now and Türkiye is way different too. Thinking in the past decades' paradigm is backwards and a losing proposition.

I doubt it. AFAIK Aspilsan import the chemicals. They will most certainly try to make them domestically but there is no indication of it having been achieved as yet, to the best of my knowledge.

Whose puppet is this new one?

14.5% of Türkiye's central government budget goes to interest payment on debt.

I believe this is the third plane sold in Türkiye, the first one was bought by Selçuk Bayraktar and was displayed at Teknofest'25. But the news pieces say this is the first sales in Türkiye. Probably Selçuk Bayraktar's copy is not counted as sales.

IMF October report, Türkiye moved up by one place as did Saudi Arabia https://www.imf.org/external/datamapper/PPPSH@WEO/OEMDC/ADVEC/WEOWORLD/AFG

Brute force is what keeps the plane flying at such a high bank angle, as the wings create little lift against gravity speed saves the day by multiplying what little lift there is. You can see how the plane shoots up due to high speed. Doing this close to ground is not forgiving either. So it is...

We will probably see what TB3 is made of before too long as they are quick in deploying it.

Once ammunition test is started it will probably go through all the outside ammo and continue with IWB ammo without a break. This also depends on whether the ammo is ready off course. I am guessing we will see completion of tests with available ammo within 3 months.

Spain is also looking for technology transfer which I presume they didn't find with other vendors.

The system comes in 5 KW increments and you can add more to scale up. But why jump while you can walk. If the system can do a job with smaller power by utilizing precision targeting then you can get away with a system that does not use too much power and much supporting systems for the high power.

Beyond that, add some electric motors and batteries and you have more power to your systems.

General aviation took off after the WW2 when there were plenty of small airplanes and engines made for them were left over from the war. Unfortunately Türkiye was not included it the aviation rush. However there is a new age and new opportunity particularly made for Türkiye. The drone industry...
