@Indos re : engines for Hurjet As far as we know there is no hold up for the prototypes of the planes being built regarding engines. Most important point is the serial production stage and the engines. There is a contract signed for 80 engines for serial production. Hence the decision to go...

By enlarging the wing area extensively they have introduced a lot of extra lift to Hurjet‘s new design. I guess to compensate for the negative effects this would have, and to improve the manoeuvrability of the plane, they have shortened the wing span as much as they could. This means that this...

Correct ! Great achievement. They have secured sale of two OPVs to Nigeria. https://www.navalnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Dearsan-opv-76.jpg.webp https://www.navalnews.com/naval-news/2021/11/turkeys-dearsan-shipyard-to-build-2-opvs-for-the-nigerian-navy/

I think @Brokengineer has made a valid point and put the full stop on this discussion with his post #2550 before this thread becomes an arena for a pissing contest between Tejas and Hurjet. Both nations are proud of what they have achieved with the two planes in question so far. Best thing to do...

They have produced 16 Tuzla class patrol boats for Turkish navy and sold 10 more to Turkmenistan. They have also produced a 1600ton 91m long. Corvette for Turkmenistan called DenizHan. They are fully capable to produce to TN Standards. http://www.dearsan.com/en

Exactly! That is what I am saying. It can’t cost more than 350-400 million. I wrote that as response to @Oublious ‘s comment : ”I think the price is not correct, the ship with sensor package would cost 400m dollar, with weapon package it could cost maybe 700 to 800 million dollar. Still cheaper...

https://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/europe/tcg-tf-2000.htm And many other sites quote the same price. As more and more indiginous weapons platforms are used, the cost may comedown. But if I remember correctly, that Cafrad is best part it of 400 million on its own. Then as new...

https://mobile.twitter.com/SSDergilik Temel Kotil has spoken about Hurjet production; ”We haven’t given up on Malaysian bidding process. I have been there three times and will be there a fourth time soon. We believe in our product.” ”We are in the process of manufacturing. Within the next couple...

https://www.oryxspioenkop.com/2022/01/bigger-business-turkey-unveils-f142.html?m=1 If this site is worth to go by, Dearsan is aiming high ! Their F142 frigate design is anything but simple. 142m length, 18.5m beam with 5500ton weight it is an ambitious design. It has all the bells and whistles...

May I remind all members that this is “TF-X Turkish fighter and trainer aircraft projects “ thread. I think the discussion is going off topic. Also for nearly two pages members have been discussing name issues for TFX. I personally would like to see more relevant discussion pertaining to the...

That price is totally impossible. I-Class should be around 350-400million dollars. That would include the VLS and the missiles. Siper can be more expensive. But if we don’t include development costs MILDAS should be cheaper than MK41 which was included in the original I-Class. Aster 30 missiles...

Aster 30 missiles are very agile with Pif-Paf systems and vector controls. They have successfully demonstrated multiple times they are accurate even against supersonic targets. They have RF seeker heads. Siper is still in development stage. We know that in the latest firing, they managed to...

My only logical guess would be, because the time limit on those blocks for “untouchability” is still valid. That is why we are requesting US to upgrade them. Also the newer planes will be more worth their while to spend dollars on them. Older ones can go through local “Ozgur” upgrade. Also if...

I looked up the dictionary meaning of a corvette: 1 : a warship ranking in the old sailing navies next below a frigate. 2 : a highly maneuverable armed escort ship that is smaller than a destroyer. 3 : with its modest fuel capacity and marginal seakeeping, a corvette isn’t suitable for...

There is a good article on the type214 subs we are building shared below. A lot of the points are answered there. I wouldn’t take standard specs given in wiki and other sites as gospel. Since, if you investigate and do a little calculation you will find a lot of discrepancies in the figures...

I hope they will be produced by TEI!

If we can recap about missiles like Bora, Lora (Israel), Iskander (Russia) and BP12 derivatives (China) ; These are all quasi ballistic missiles (They behave like ballistic. But have a lower altitude flight paths) . They expend their fuel when they reach their apogee. So they start to lose...

Our Bora missile reaches hypersonic speeds during it’s flight. It should have around 3.5-4.5 Mach speed at terminal stage depending on it’s weight after expending fuel. In fact most + 2 ton ballistic missiles with ranges more than 250km can easily reach hypersonic speeds. The main point is to...
