    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. It is so unfair to call an unfinished work ugly.

    It should optionally fly with outside weapons, it is a common thing.

    ANKA-3 should come with a carrier version too. A twin engine version and versions with larger engines should be planned too. It goes without saying that a tanker version should follow as well. When you have managed to fly a plane it is only natural to make versions of it with 80% commonality.

    The planform of the ANKA-3 is not seen clearly from these two pictures but I do like the form from what I see. The exhaust seem a little exposed but this probably is not an issue as TAI have all the means to figure out if it is a problem. I don't like the delta types with straight edged high...

    TR HÜRJET-Advanced Jet Trainer/ Light attack aircraft

    Ailerons are not installed yet; slats and flaps are not there so the wings look skinny, easy job though. Also horizontal stabilizers are not there. Seems like add on parts are not installed.

    Outlook for select countries, from IMF 2022 numbers. Blue is PPP GDP per capita, orange is Nominal GDP per capita. I would say Turkiye's nominal GDP is actually at $15.890 looking at Romania's numbers.

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    You don't have to be selling them all once in a few years. This is throughout the life-cycle of the Project. The situation depends highly on tensions in the world. I would take this as a starting point. Remember that these planes open up the sales of other defense products from Türkiye. You...

    UAE has 3 times the population and 2.5 times the economy of Qatar so it is only natural to ask for more. And UAE does not have stealth fighters.

    How much a country will spend on fighter planes is totally up to the priorities of the country and the amount of their disposable income and savings.

    Here is what the nominal GDP of some countries of interest for TFX look like (IMF estimate for 2022).

    I guess all major components of the plane are installed and the plane should look complete. So it should be ready for picture opportunities.

    It would be nice if they stay away, we are having our own. Solutions can be found to every problem as long as they are large enough. Like make good roads, offer other methods of transportation. Unlike in the US where high speed rail is non existent countries with denser population can have high...

    TR Nuclear Energy Program

    These small reactors still contribute a small amount of power rather than a large one. Türkiye needs to finish work on the thorium reactors and see what can be done with it. If successful thorium reactors can supply the bulk of Türkiye's energy needs. If not we then look into developing our...

    The US piles up debt to feed their military but this can not go much further as the dollar is bleeding badly.
