    There are ups and downs with İgneada. Being up north is a disadvantage. Being close to technology centers is an advantage. Lower stage drop locations are probably suitable already; both within and possibly outside Türkiye. This should probably do for payloads up to 2 tons, I am guessing. My...

    Fuel economy and lighter weight. It is like the difference between piston engine and turbine engine for fuel use.

    This must be for small payloads. Otherwise we are in for a big disadvantage. For large payloads like more than 2 tons the cost of not using the earths rotational catapulting effect which is the biggest near the equator will require more powerful rockets for the same payload. They should at...

    What name calling are you talking about? Aluminum engine block making was a technology we did not have in Türkiye. The only aluminium engine block making factory was founded by one of the foreign companies, probably Renault very recently. So we have gained diesel aluminium engine block foundry...

    Relax, we do not have any urgency to push those engines to service any faster than that is being done right now. Time is being taken to make better and better products with more and more national resources.

    Wingspan of Akıncı is 4 meters shorter which makes Akıncı more agile.

    You only need a transmission RPM change from the TS1400 output to the propeller input if any. How long do you want this to take, TEI can do this in 3 months if they want. And this is an unmanned plane. You guys are making it look like a development from scratch. TEI are endeavoring to make the...

    Dude, you don't need a turboprop version to be made, while a turboprop is the ideal case a turboshaft is good enough to run a propeller. PD225 tests are 70% finished, give it 6 months to be completed. You will need to clear the entire portside to pull off a landing. But the benefits will be...

    We don't know how many strings are attached to foreign options. I would use PD225 for low power Akıncı and use a de-rated TS1400 for the high power monster. This can happen in 6 months. With TS1400 it maybe possible to operate Akıncı from LHD Anadolu without tugging. Using some AI this can be...

    Akıncı also flies with the Canadian PT6 engine and the PD225 which is nearly ready for duty. TF6000 can be used for MIUS if it is a thing in a few years. TEI have already made preliminary work for a 3000-4000 hp class turboshaft engine and if they get a work order from SSB they can make the...
