He should be able to take some heat if he wants to flame. I am not responding to him anymore.

Looking down on Turks an saying they can't do a thing, that's your biggest problem. I am not hearing your bullshit anymore.

Stop smoking that thing you are smoking. What makes you think Turkey can not make a helicopter engine and run it? All the the things that Turkey has done so far and in the process of doing, you don't know them. Lame duck Donald Trump takes his tweeting machine tweets on us. LOL I won't be easy...

Lithium in not found in high concentrations is Turkey but found in smaller densities in places where mining is done. It is produced as a byproduct of other mining activity. Although concentration is not high it seems to be endless.

People got sick in November of 2019 in many places around the world including US, Italy. Wuhan is known to be a center for virus research but researchers are free to move around the world.

Not totally impossible but would be a niche plane. It will have to carry its oxidizer on board which will reduce its payload capacity.

The only thing that is missing for flying cars as envisioned by Uber Elevate program which basically foresees an electric propulsion for the sake of reduced fuel cost, quietness, and being free of pollution in place of use is RANGE. But if you give up on the pure electric requirement then you...

All leading countries have their hands in the Flying Car business at Government Level. They have stopped leaving the field to individual companies and started taking it seriously. They also want to use them in the military despite all the modern and powerful other capabilities they already have...

It is a joke in a way but it depends on how you envision it. The kinds that only live in movies rely on superior alien technology but there are also those that rely on reliable human technology. We are still at the peak of the hype cycle but some companies are about to get past this stage. Joby...

A similar Consortium to the TOGG should be founded to make the Flying Car of Turkey. Canada announced such a consortium recently. There is still a chance to lead the industry as it is not established yet.

Turkey is not poised to make a jump in phonemaking. The 4 existing makers had no plans to expand operations. A possible domestic capable micro chip is a decade away. They probably want to break out of Made in China disadvantage. And want to be able to ship to market faster and cheaper. Also...

Pulsejet engines are intermittent like the piston engine. Repeated detonations make the propulsion which means there are intervals between detonations when there is no propulsion. They are suitable as tipjets for helicopters though as the push need not be continuous. They will underperform any...

Apart from Göksunger this engine can power a shorter range Gezgin missile as there are plans for several different ranges for the Gezgin. A turbofan can be used for longer range or larger payload.

This engine can do it but it wouldn't be ideal as a low bypass turbofan will give more mileage for the same fuel. However before the advent of turbofans even passenger planes used turbojets, so it is acceptable.

It sure can. But a diesel engine has its advantages. There are some other efforts being made to make engines for our ships which are already underway.

Coincidentally TS1400 has 1660hp top power rating. It seemed an overkill that there are 700 personnel working on the TS1400 engine which makes more sense now. Projects can be slowed down and sped up in accordance with urgencies.

What is more interesting is that there is a mention of a turbofan engine from the same core. This may just be an indication of an intent to make one and not have been attempted at all as yet. It would be fantastic if there is one though.

Deal, you've got yourself a brand new secret engine project.

Do you take bribes. :sneaky: It also appeared at the same time as TS1400 appeared.

This engine seems to have been developed as a side product to the TS1400 engine and probably has the same BHP rating as its turboshaft equivalent. I have seen this engine at one of the trade-shows and it does have a similar combustor size to the TS1400 engine.
