Number 28 is for 2028, Temel Kotil says that Türkiye will have the national engine for the TFX in 2028. How many engines do we have for prototypes, as I hear from Turkish media we have F110 engines for 7 planes prototype or not.

With 3D printing of turbine blades a whole lot of new cooling design possibilities open up. I wonder if liquid cooling can become possible.

Of course it is and there is no sign that the industry have complaints about it.

Current composition of the industry is not bad, there is nothing to fix.

I never said you said something so there is no distortion. I only said Mr. Akşit did not put a limit to what the technology they are employing can do. SSB want to forge the efforts of several parties into one combined effort to make sure the outcome is a satisfactory one similar to how the...

Mr. Akşit does not say the technology they are using only enables that much. He only says with the cooling measures they took they operating the blades at up to 1800°K. You can not the make inference from his statement that a working temperature of only 1327°C is achieved. You can very well use...

Those opposing countries must be thinking Türkiye will not defend itself against their plots. While none of them have borders with conflict areas Türkiye does. This gives all the leverage we need to go ahead. The perfect opportunity to step up our defense industry game is looming.

A reusable drone carries a disposable drone. Each component of the whole does what it can do best, better than having one disposable larger drone.

We don't want to leave Iraq to the hands of Iran.

Nobody needs to prove you anything, it is you asserting that we don't have the technology while there is lots of work still in progress. I have been at one of the meetings in one of the universities where some of the technologies were brought up and it was more than two years ago. I am...

While there is so much secrecy and intense efforts of development what proof do you have to assert otherwise about the state of Turkish technology, such a pile of preconception you are spewing. I never asserted that only existing technology is to be employed. You need to have every detail of the...

Understandable it looks a little creepy to foreigners when Turkish made crystals shine.

Turns out that the F110 engine's Turbine inlet temperature: 2,750 °F (1,510 °C) If we can handle 1600 °C we have safely mastered the art and science of it. Turns out that 1600 °C was the record temperature in quite recent year of 2011, by MHI. If we are already in this ballpark we are good...

Indigenous is the final stop, you can not get past it. RR involvement is rather an impediment than a boost in the way of going indigenous as the financial cost of it can get in the way of domestic development. In the worst case eventuality indigenous development timeline get extended an...

Turbine blades will be under more stress but there will be more real estate on them to use for better cooling too. After all it is supposed to be produced within Türkiye and RR will only help design it. So where will the blades come from if not Tübitak/TEI. Will Kale make them, of course not...

I bet you are aware that Mr. Akşit says the first engine always takes longer to develop while subsequent engines cut the time by half. So looking at the timeline of TS1400 requires spacial looking glasses to evaluate it correctly. He even said the third engine developed takes even less time, for...

There is undisclosed information about capabilities of Türkiye, I wouldn't say that we have no capabilities to achieve the objectives before 2033 when the chiefs of the industry say they can. We can go for what suits us rather than take whatever offer is given to us. We should never try to...

Once a spy always a spy :D

Obviously SSB does not want to miss out on what RR can bring to the table while also not lose control of IP rights of the engine. RR will only design the engine and not be involved in production. I would simply take the risk of delays and go solo with TR Motor. The more unrelated to foreign...

For individual products it is straight forward but for industry average considering new capabilities that are destined to come online for the first time it is harder to make today's calculations as they will be factored in when they are realized.
