When Saudi Arabia goes dry that $1 bn number will mean a lot. If we can find a couple of dozens of similar reserves we will be good.

We will steamroll the enemy.

What happens when cheap petrol flows in from across the border.

Ukrainian engines for the T29 project will be produced in Türkiye. Most probably TEI will make them.

There was only a post on the web stating that and there was no objection to that post. That's why I included a question mark in my post meaning that it is not certain. Mind the next posters post that claims TEI have license for almost all the engines, like I did.

That is like some confidential piece of information I guess as we have not been informed publicly of such a deal.

Motor Sich have an agreement with TEI (?) to produce the Atak2 engine in Türkiye. As such they do not need a production facility but only an engineering presence in Türkiye.

What do you do if you can not pull something off immediately, do you just give it up and kill the effort or keep on trying. What makes you think BMC has failed the effort. I highly doubt your allegation that BMC did not carry the project through to success.

With all the enmity Erdoğan faced from foreigners and from some of his own people what he delivers is way beyond anyone can ask for.

@Oublious Map updated with Burkina Faso.

Everything looks real but the bottom part of the cockpit front is flat and looks unreal.

Why should they make a new mockup while the actual prototype is counting days to emerge. Must be for ground test as it does not have a pitot tube on the nose or anywhere.

The cost of transporting gas from a longer distance must be born by the vendor country, meaning less profit for them. Their other option is selling gas to Russia at cheap prices which they do.

Detonations engines and scramjets come to mind. Now that the ramjet work is ripe we can expect progress in these two areas. It may still be at a very readiness level but once you have your one foot in the door you can as well get both of them before long. I am wishing for detonation engines for...

What if they manage to make it such that it does, it is a small plane, anyway.

Military Procurement Chief Ismail Demir said so on TV yesterday but he didn't elaborate what type of UAVs. The ship enables operation of 10 UAVs in the air at any given time and the remaining planes can be stowed on the below deck.

There are additional carrier ships planned but these planes are smaller and they say they can accomodate between 50-100 UAVs on the ship.

TEI have been making parts for turbofan engines for ages. So they have nothing to wait for on the production side. It does not make a whole lot of a set back if the first batches of engines aren't up to snuff. The Kızılelma the first plane the TF6000 engine can power is currently powered with a...

LHD Anadolu will have Bayraktar TB3, MIUS/Kızılelma and Hürjet Naval operating from it, hopefully. Quantum leap happening in that department.

Those engines are not stealth so the F35 will still have some stealth advantage over the early TFX. And Hürjet is not a big deal as it is not a stealth design.
