It's the third prototype but is still has no landing gear bay doors. It is exposed to air drag even when its legs are folded, just like in the slow-speed drones like Akinci or Reaper.

This is impossible for humans. We can neither know all the initial conditions of the problem nor have the necessary compute to calculate a solution(future event). And everything else is just a guess. He cannot precisely know or predict the future milestones of TF6000, let alone the TF35000.

"2025 yılı sonunda ilk uçuşunu gerçekleştirecek ikinci prototipimizin üretim ve montaj faaliyetlerini yerinde inceledik." Translation: "We examined the production and assembly activities of our second prototype, which will make its first flight at the end of 2025."

it is not the second KAAN. please have some common sense. A month ago Haluk Görgün shared the bulkheads of the aircraft and in the same tweet he explicitly said it's the second prototype. we've been over this. there is a misunderstanding. what you see on that photo is the first prototype. 100%

Assuming we have a steady supply of Korean powerpack, getting Altay ready for serial production and producing it in numbers is much more important than equipping them with BATU engines. BMC Power should have adequate time and opportunity to work out the kinks of the engine.

This is from Dec 20th,2024 and this is today(not even a month later) so at this rate, we're on track to deliver 20 KAANs this year, two years before the original schedule!

he says once ANKA-4 flies above 85km, it will no longer be abide by gravity and thereby range of its missiles will be infinite. -- This circus clown is on a national TV and educates public on Turkish defence programs. Could we stoop any lower? May God have mercy on us all.

yeah ofc he's not lying. there's a mixup somewhere in the chain. what baffled me was the lack of fact checking of the defence publications. like how can you believe that this is the second prototype? why doesn't anyone raise any questions? aren't you supposed to know a little bit better than...

One of these are from Fergani

I believe that the current export of 7 billion dollars will reach double-digit billion dollar exports within 2 years. The total amount of export contracts we signed in 2023 and 2024 is 20 billion dollars. — Prof. Dr. Haluk Görgün | President of Defense Industries

how to make sense of this hot mess? all of the defence publications jumped on it and shared it as the new prototype(including DefenceTurk). none of them questions the absurdity and serve it as it is from the horse's mouth. some(Tolga Özbek) are even scolding his followers, saying "do you think...

In 2024, we exported the most to Europe, regionally. We signed the most contracts with the European region. Five of the top 10 countries in our exports were European countries. — SSB President Prof. Dr. Haluk Görgün

it is the first prototype(P0)

It still has vileda stick. They better tore the aircraft down rebuild it. :mad:😂

The sweet thing about developing your own missiles with your own subsystems is that you are no longer fettered with MTCR that restricts you from acquiring missiles above 300km range. This will only increase the gap between us and the countries that can't develop these weapons. Because they can't...

This is the source of the leak Maybe it's an old video. It's best to wait for an official release but the defense publications are posting it as the second prototype and I haven't seen any retraction. They must know the progress better than us speculators

It's probably true Then it begs the question, why does it have to wait almost a year to fly?

Yeah I saw the tweet too. Thought it was P0 and not bothered to post here. But I examined some of the photos of P0 and Erdogan's signature was made with a black pen and with a date on top. This one has white signature with no dates. Maybe it was printed?

You think Baykar doesn't share progress? Really? Like they are checking off weapon tests one by one and don't release any footage or news? That is not BAYKAR's modus operandi.
