    Original Adour Turbomeca IS an old design. But this engine has gone through well over a dozen different modernisation and renewal programs. In it’s current guise it has FADEC, totally new fan and a combustor, and new HP turbine and LP turbine stages. It’s dry thrust level has gone up to 6500lbf...

    Correct! Turkey IS a “ Developing Country” Yet The CIA classifies Turkey as a developed country. Although Turkey has its own economic struggles it is not a “third world country. The best way to describe Turkey is developed/developing. According to the CIA Factbook, Turkey is a developed...

    As discussed before, should Ukrainian engines prove to be unattainable, then for subsonic flight, Honeywell F-124 or for supersonic flight, F-125 version will be ideal. Even the RR Adour turbomeca is an alternative should US would cause problems with the Honeywell engine; until TF6000 becomes...

    If you mean Kizilelma; that is the given name of the MIUS unmanned stealth plane, meaning red apple. It apparently has some sort of Turkic mythological connotation.

    My logic was that Umtas was produced as a Turkish replacement of US’s Hellfire, which is a 2 Mach missile, ours should be of the same ilk. Quote Both UMTAS variants are analogous to the AGM-114 Hellfire whose use on fixed wing aircraft and helicopters shaped the Middle East’s history for three...

    Not really specified! There is a lot of technical info at below site though. It is effective up to 17km range. For a 105mm artillery it is quite good. Due to it’s advanced Aselsan built FCS, and INS and GPS assisted targeting it is very accurate. Because it can be carried by a Sikorsky S-70 it...

    That looks more like a preparatory work carried out for an arresting system. I may be wrong but, it looks like they have taken out that area of the aft portion of the runway and covered it with a temporary surface material. Besides, if I remember correctly, the surface of the TCG Anadolu was...
