Speaking of Baykar, where tf is KIZILELMA? After all the hype and promises of serial production, a mere pathfinder vehicle has done the minimum basic flight and they call it a day? No high-speed flight, no flight envelope expansion, no weapon integration, no IWBs, no mission system integration...

We're on the same page. I wasn't suggesting that Baykar should shy away from this proposition. Baykar's core tech is nowhere near that of Leonardo's and they could benefit from this symbiosis immensely. My jab was at the suggestion of becoming the leader of Europe in drone business. That is...

Baykar is already the leader in the world.

😂

By this logic anyone who can read(I can read it too) Quran today can read Ottoman Turkish, which is obviously false. Go ahead and test this theory if it holds water. And when you fail, please don't come back with excuses like "those words are forgotten today". Because that is not the reason. You...

Do you guys happen to know some articles or books on fixing the demography of an aging country(repopulation)? I'm very interested in the topic and want know if there are any material consisting of well-thought-out, actionable steps.

They produced and delivered 6k cars in Dec 2023. That would make over 70k cars annual production rate even if there were no improvements made to the production line in 2024. And yet they sold only 30k cars in 2024. TOGG won't be a success story unfortunately. Their competition is leaps and...

Is a 4 engine aircraft a must in this day and age? Can a twin-engine aircraft be utilized for this purpose? A turbofan engine with a modern FADEC combined with your engine(assuming similar thrust levels) should be able to coast through even in case of an engine shutdown? No? If that is a hard...

They started the design of the AC like yesterday. How does that make sense? I'm sure you know how much TF2000's design took? Does the suffix "2000" mean anything?

Is TF-2000's first steel cut also ceremonial like the aircraft carrier? Why did they start "building" MİLDEN, MUGEM and TF-2000 at the same time? Is it just for the "wow effect"?

true, the other two are in their own parallel universes and putting TR_tech in the same list seems a bit unfair but he does resort to propaganda at times. a good rule of thumb, if an account uses the words "superior", "leader", "game changer" etc. too many times, it's a propaganda account and...

These accounts on twitter are cheap propaganda bots and should not be followed or be speculated on, imo: TurkishFacts4U(this one is the worst) https://x.com/TurkishFacts4U Tr_tech https://x.com/T_Nblty TurkishCentury https://x.com/TurkishCentury There are...

Several hundred KIZILELMAs? Are they prepping for Armageddon?

I remember, reading online, Indians boasting Modi for his approach towards the country's "neglected" defence industry. I thought he brought some urgency to the indigenous defence programs? I'm not a fan of Erdogan but he takes this business very seriously. It's either you deliver(and deliver on...

Is it reasonable to expect the engines first flight(other than the Russian testbed) within a year?

Is Tejas Mk1a still awaiting the engines? Is there any other hold-up for its roll-out?

making and validating different versions of hardware for export is not worth the trouble. what you would do is to limit the performance of the system through software. the hardware could be the same but the output would be defined by the variables in the software.
