Hürkuş with its top speed of 574km can react rather quickly to threats and can also be considered for unmanned operations. It is the next asset up from the Akıncı UAV for speed. So how does it really compare to Akıncı for all their capabilities?

Turkey is trying to make up for the many lost years that it suffered due to poor leadership. We are trying to catch up to our true potential which is over 90% self sufficiency. We are at 70% now but we have come to this point from 20% self sufficiency of 18 years ago. It will take another decade...

Nice surprise The young master has donned lightly this time. Should take it easy for the first time.

Best case scenario is not usually the more likely one.

So it happened without asking. Americans are multi-headed like the quantum states they are both doing and not doing things at the same time.

Niice Truth: SomeDoğan fired at target from TFX Fun: Meteor missing the target, TFX dodging Meteor

No kill switch not possible. TFX fully built in 2-5 year highly likely.

We should make drones and fighters and planes with every combination of engines we have access to. Single and twin engine variations and also planes with 3 and 4 engines. Imagine we make a bomber with 4 MMU engines, and Mach 3 business jets that can take our MOFA to the farthest countries in a...

I am watching Chinese historical drama from time to time. Does that count, xe (şı).

Ahem, it is not that we value the statements of foreign officials better but that our officials don't make those statements.

We don't want the F35.

You are missing a major difference between turbojet and turboshaft. Turboshaft is not meant to generate thrust therefore the exhaust gas is less energetic.

Faaantastic

Turbine for sure but the 750hp is the one we will be watching for.

You don't want to deal with too many innovations at a time. Re-usability is about cost reduction which is only a secondary goal for us. Once we pull off the main goal of acquiring the basic capability we can always go for re-usability going forward. This way we can progress without snags.

Looking good.

You can only test with what you have access to. The engines will do the job for when the plane is not fully loaded. Like without the weapons load and the full fuel load. Near the dry weight of the plane which is usually around half the take off weight. 5x7m is a round number. This sheet of...

They have started the mass production process. They are subcontracting now and not sure when the first copy will come out the line.

There must be engineers somewhere that can come up with good solutions to all the problems that will be thrown at them. You can probably make additions to the sides of the ship to accommodate the machinery that will operate the cable. Or maybe you can place mobile attachments on the deck that...
