Initial prototypes are all about flying and not about payload configuration. It is like looking at an unfinished piece of artwork. They will get the configuration right when it is time for it.

They are proportional to the dimensions of the plane. With its 21 meter length it is 2 meters longer than the F-22 and only 20cm shorter than J-20.

This is absurd, yet they sometimes do tricks to disguise the actual final product.

Kızılelma did quick take off and quick landing tests as well as fast flight tests in its 6th and 7th test flights.

It is high in the sky like a star, shines like a star. If it were too bad Türk Yıldızları would have changed their name. It is not as good as "Baba Kartal" but I haven't yet heard a very good name either. There will also be a numerical name I guess.

It is a different plane but it is like F22 and the F35. F22 is capable but not being sold for a number of reasons. Price and secretiveness among them. And some of the countries that you want to export it to maybe protected by having our bases there rather than selling them planes. A single...

TUSAŞ have made the Atak, they can very well make another one.

By the time we have the carrier we may very well have the destroyers. Money is not an issue as they will be very highly domestic production.

So yeah, what do you want to show when the next time the enemy want to show us their carriers like France did in support of Greece. Today's enemies can be joined by others in the future and you need to be prepared.

TFX will probably not be exported widely, I expect very limited exports as it will be relatively more expensive. Probably a single engine version can be exported.

TFX is likely to be named Türk Yıldızı meaning Turkish Star I like it

I wouldn't say so. These are the varieties of platforms that can be operated from the ship not necessarily to be deployed all at the same time. Also these planes are looking for export opportunities, we may not even have to put them in service on our ships but we need to make them work on...

"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" Commenting on something that you can't even see clearly is surely loaded with prejudice.

As a surprise development they want to operate the Akıncı from TCG Anadolu too. https://ekonomi.haber7.com/ekonomi/haber/3318730-ssb-baskani-demir-acikladi-ikinci-s-400-paketi-icin-turkiyeden-kritik-sart

Twice the size is twice the tonnage and not twice the geometrical dimensions.

For our larger ships like the TF-2000 and carrier ships we probably need a deal with RR or an additional deal with GE. Optionally we make our own derived from TR Motor Özgün TF35k.

Actually because there will already be much of the groundworks done for a turboprop engine when a turboshaft is made and a turboprop can be made with a relatively small effort. Such an engine can be used to make propeller passenger planes, cargo planes, seaplanes and perhaps hovercraft too. I am...

Radial compressor design of TS1400 may not be ideal for a turboprop as PT6 and some others are of axial compressor type. However material science aspects of that power level should apply to an axial compressor turboprop design as well. TEI should make a 1500 hp class turboprop and also should...

He did but it was a long day for him and when he came back he standed in yet another line for two hours to get food for iftar in Üsküdar. He was exhausted at the end of the day and was silent but he was happy as he had joined his two sons and a grandson to have dinner on the lawn watching the...

In the US the Army has the Agility Prime program where they support several category of electric VTOL aircraft designs to adopt them in the Army. This gave those companies a boost as the companies are not bound with restrictions that apply to civilian vehicles. No wonder they are leading in this...
