    Logical! But in order to do said modifications some parts may have to be changed or rebuilt. To do that we should have access to the engine, or better still, produce it under license and alter what needs to be altered.

    This is what you are asking! @ #742 you are getting the answer to your question. Assumption is something taken for granted or supposition. This is not so. It is a fact. An engine that is a turboshaft can be easily converted to a turboprop. Instead of driving a rotor it will be driving a...

    TR Attack & Utility Helicopter Programs

    All these helicopters that use this proposed engine are transport helicopters. They are not attack helicopters. They are not war machines. An attack helicopter’s power requirement is very different to a transport helecopter’s. Sudden acceleration, manoeuvring and gaining altitude. These exert...

    @Nilgiri is correct! Turboshaft or turboprop, they are both shaft driven. At shaft level the output of engine power is the same. Power transmitted at the propellers or to rotors level may vary a little bit due to different transmissions and different amounts of power losses. That is all!

    Turkey has already integrated a series of Turkish built ammunition and equipment on Azerbaijani Mig29 aircrafts. So it is possible to use locally produced bombs and targeting pods or equipment on Russian planes. If source codes are accessed , then more is possible!

    Prof Mahmut Aksit has stated that taking the TS1400 core and changing the compressor and turbine stages to an axial flow turbofan will create an engine that would give 8-9000lbf thrust. If he says it can be done, then I believe that somehow it is possible to create a turbofan from this radial...
