    Since when have we had F35 planes, to arrest them with Tumosan Engine? In below site there is more info on the subject. Apparently they have already delivered 60 units for the use of airforce...

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Good question! My guess is that Kale/RR partnership will outsource a lot of parts from TEI. TEI has a lot of work in hand already. They will still carry on developing the indigenous engine. But now without time pressure. They have. TF6000 to develop, militarise TS-1400, serial production of...

    Israel has got it. It is called “rampage” . Artillery rockets are intrinsically cheap weapons. But as soon as you start adding guidance on them, their price start going up. Israel, uses a guidance for stationary land targets. That keeps prices at check to a certain degree. But if you want to hit...

    TRG300 missile if fired from air will have a much longer range. If the missile doesn’t have to overcome the gravity’s pull and initial speed gain, it will go much longer. But you are correct , depending on the TRG300’s version, it’s range varies between 90km and 120km if fired from surface.

    Although never confirmed officially, Bora 2 missile will be able to hit moving sea targets from a 4-500km range if the previous chatter on the subject is correct. @Cabatli_53 had shared a post in Pakistan Defence forum regarding this issue over a couple of years ago. Same type of seeker head...

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    TEI did a fantastic job with TS-1400. They need to be applauded for it. But how did they get to produce that engine? TEI has been producing CTS-800 engine for our T-129s under license. They had started producing T-700 engines under license too. They learned the intricacies involved in making a...

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Having re-read my post several times, I couldn’t see optimism. In fact what I saw was exactly the opposite. Now, let’s start with TEI; Even Prof Aksit accepted that without the help and machinery GE brought in, TEI would not be in the position that it is today. Then there is Aselsan. Thales...

    Well, according to below site (I don’t know how dependable and accurate this site is) the selling price of a MAM-L missile is 25000 US dollars. MAM-C missile is 20000 US dollars. Cost price would be significantly lower. Also when weapons are sold as part of a package their price varies...

    I have always been one of the sceptics about the protection systems present on TCG Anadolu. But looking at the amount of self protection there is on this to be flagship, my worries are dissipating a little bit; 5 x Aselsan 25mm STOP, 2 x Phalanx 20mm CIWS, 1 x RAM (may be 2 ; at least that is...

    Your first option is what SSB president has told everyone anyway. He even insinuated that the supply/production/purchase of F110s needed for the first production run have been confirmed. For your second option, one has to remember that US pulled out of f136 project altogether. RR may not even...

    I agree that if we can provide TF-6000 in time , it is the correct choice. No doubt about that. However, I did put 2 “IF”s in my post; “If” we decide to go for it and “If” BAE Systems becomes a production partner in TFX. If that happens then there is a possibility to produce this engine in...

    If RR is to become a partner like BAE Systems in TFX, I am sure they will update the engine with necessary revisions, if we decide to go for it. Besides it can’t be any older/low-tech than the Motor-Sich engine we were ready to settle for! Also if the quantities are large enough it would be...

    Or, if we are to work with RR , their Turbomeca Adour engine with 6000lbf dry thrust for subsonic use and the 8400lbf version with afterburner for supersonic flight, could be considered.

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Some of the major differences between 5th gen and 6th gen fighters are; improved speed, range, stealth and self healing characteristics of these planes. To achieve better speed and to be able to fly at higher altitude the engines will have to have much higher thrust levels. This means better...
