BTW, Germany's defence minister Christine Lambrecht is gone. Bye bye Christine! ;)

Speaking of which, have the GE F404 engines that will be used in the Hürjet prototypes been delivered?

If drone's AI, not test pilots, will fly the TFX, it makes perfect sense to make the first flight earlier than planned.

10.000 Altay? LOL You either don't know how to count, or you haven't been beaten!

Pakistan's "prescription for disaster" against itself a) Ignoring the ideas of the founding leader. When he died, Pakistani's first job was to destroy the secular foundations established by Jinnah. Whoever betrays his ancestor, he will be cursed. b) Not being able to establish the separation...

I hope they will believe their explanations themselves and do something stupid.

Based on 2 x AI-322F Ukraine engines. Twin engine Hurjet. May be replaced with TEI TF10000 in the future. But even in this case I would start after the delivery of the engines. Hopefully that F404s will be delivered in January-2023. But my guess is they won't deliver on that date. If they have...

Sorry, but these arguments are not valid for me! Why didn't Baykar use a USA engine for KE then? IMO Baykar did the right thing and TAI took a very unnecessary risk.

They could at least design a two-engine version of the Hürjet. Based on Ukraine engine. At least in that case, when TEI TF10000 was ready, we could use that design without wasting time.

There is something I don't understand. If we do not have the GE F404 engine delivered, why did they design Hürjet based on GE F404? How can they be so sure that they will not experience a second "Altay's Power Pack" disgrace?

I do not belive this news.

The road to the top of the mountain passes through the slopes of the mountain. Let's first design and manufacture the "ordinary" 5th generation engine that can produce 35.000 lb thrust. On the other hand, IMHO he is right in the long run. Variable by-pass engines provide significant fuel savings.

Probably you are drunk. ;)

Does this illustration (Anka-3) just look so ugly to only me?

Seriously, the Russians have never used S-duck inlets, except for 1-2 experimental aircraft. I wonder why?

Do you know what surprised me the most when Iran's that bullshit was announced? An expert like Arda Mevlütoğlu (orko_8) had seriously analyzed this. We're talking about Iran! The only things to be taken seriously are their habit of systematicly and constantly bullshiting.

Yes, if we can develop the TFX's (AESA radar + passive sensor arrays + sensor fusion software) on time and to the desired standard. We probably do. On the other hand, the engine issue will be challenging though.

Actually it is. As technology advances, many more sensors can be placed on the fuselage than before, and so much data can be analyzed in a reasonable amount of time. In the past this was not possible. That's the main idea in Iron Bird. Shown in this picture is only a small part of the facility.

If the first thing that comes to your mind in the nuclear energy discussion is accessing nuclear weapons or copying the nuclear reactors that were sold to us, you would wait many many many more years! Either don't be of such sick mentality or be honest with yourself and develop thorium-based...
