@Anmdt , is CODAE propulsion like CODLAG or CODLOG ? Combined Diesel Electric And/Or Gas? In this case Combined diesel and Electric.? Any similarity to AZP or IEP ?

Re: f35 As well as increasing the RCS of the plane while opening weapon bay doors (apparently for over 4 seconds) , when the plane is at 25000ft or lower there is significant overheating problem of the surfaces If the plane has flown for more than 10 minutes at that altitude, which hinders the...

TFX internal bays’ original size may have not allowed many missiles. In fact even SOM-J would not be accommodated. But Tubitak Sage MD has stated clearly that the SOM-J will be carried inside. That is a big missile. So the internal bays’ design must have changed. Until March 2023, we can only...

Most importantly according to Gürcan Okumuş, It will be able to house SOM-J inside the internal weapons bays. https://www.aa.com.tr/tr/bilim-teknoloji/tubitak-sage-turkiyenin-yeni-fuzelerini-hazirliyor/2250793

1. if it is BMC that is going to do the modernisation, then it is under new ownership. Give them a chance to correct all the wrongs made in the past. 2. Somebody has to start this modernisation. My understanding is Aselsan and Roketsan are in charge of this modernisation. 3. Current...

This is good news! At least we will have 500 modern tanks that will be able to withstand some of today’s threats in battlefields. (169 M60TM + 331 modernised 2A4s) if by 2027to 2028 we can have 250 Altay tanks as well, in view of where tanks are today, it could be enough for us. (Provided as...

According to above news tweet in September 2021, Prof Mahmut Aksit had announced that they are in negotiation with GE to be able to produce the F404GE102 engine with at least 40-50% domestic contribution at TEI. If there is a contract signed for 80 engines, then we hope that there is TEI...

So difficult decisions to make for the Malaysians! Something will sway them in the end.

@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...
