TAI is a solution partner making parts for multinational civilian projects already but they are not making whole products. They should probably attempt to make a passenger plane with 130 seats which can be modified for other uses too. Once I had a chance to approach Mr Kotil and I suggested him...

It would be nice if TAI makes a twin engine delta fighter/bomber and a tanker with the expected TF-6000. And Baykar makes the advanced MIUS with a single TF-6000.

TAI has more projects on their hands than they can handle right now.

TAI and Baykar should not necessarily compete as they are not making the exact same products. It would be a waste if they did at this level of industrialization. Maybe 15-20 years later but not just yet.

TF-6000 will be the first medium power and the first turbofan engine Turkey is ever producing assuming it will be realized before the engines for the TFX, a very exciting product to look forward to.

It doesn't make sense for TAI to import engines when there is TEI. Baykar on the other hand is not a state company and can act like a private sector company can.

I heard many things but what I heard this SAHA EXPO tops it all. They said that they will sell threaded barrel pistols to civilians, I didn't believe that and I told the guy that I found it unbelievable. But he has the credentials to say the truth.

The picture 2021. Top 15 countries for their Total PPP GDP (in blue) and PPP GDP per capita (in orange). Turkey ranks 11th. Turkey has the potential to rise to 7th position in the medium term. An average American is twice as rich as an average Türk. To be able show very small and very large...

No, that's only until we can make our own, the threat comes from the US. EDIT: I was out in the cold when I made this post when I read the word "definitely" as "indefinitely" but the response holds its own for both cases.

How can you prove that it is useless when other countries are also buying them, you are simply bullshitting as you do not have any basis for your claims.

You know very well that they can be deployed in a matter of days anywhere you want to chose where and when they are needed. There is no need to deploy them before time.

Give up national production? That will not make any gains as the US has no interest in helping Turkey grow its power anyway. We can use the money to beef up our production and diversify our systems.

How did you want to cover the airspace in the 4 years until 2024 if it happens by then? Seems like you would just keep Turkey defenseless and crippled.

Temel Kotil was saying that a 60 passenger plane is the best fit for a new plane introduction as there is a vacuum in the market for such a plane. A plane that size can possibly be modified for patrol operations as well as tanker operations and possibly for some cargo operations be it civilian...

We should have our hands in quantum computing as well as optical and transistor based. I believe this can happen once we have become energy positive with our hydrocarbon and renewables investments and have some extra cash to invest in these technologies.

Yes of course as long as yo are on the positive gains you are good, but prices fluctuate. Several years back industry experts were saying that 65$ is the minimum that will make drilling profitable, today it is probably at $75.

You can't expect every bet to pay good dividends, that is how the world is.

Actually I am more interested in what components we will be using that are imported and if it can be made totally in Turkey. Looking at the specs it may very well be totally Turkish made I guess.

So, who is making this STM-500 Small-Size Submarine and what timeframe? In other words what foreign components are we using if any?

Pro Probably decisions were made by different powerhouses living in the same country.
