    Currently our engineers are doing jobs a high school graduate can do. Roketsan for example how hard it is to build bunch of missiles illiterate Houthis in Yemen are doing the same type of rockets our 2 doctorate degrees engineers are doing by hand in Roketsan, Aselsan videos. Besides there is...

    Same slimy crap British did to us by stealing our money by not delivering our warships after getting paid and by confiscating Turkish territory Cyprus. Brazen THEFT by bunch of hyenas. We asked for our money back many many times. Biden said instead of money, let's sell you F-16s. What were we...

    Türkiye spent 1.5% GDP on defense last year. One of the lowest in NATO. So money is an issue too not just embargos. If it was me I wouldn't buy anything from west and I would pre pay part of those tens of billions to our own defense companies and force them to hire 10 or even 100 times more...

    W Our NATO membership may have started as a means to try to protect us from USSR but now it is hopefully there to protect us from what these pack of western hyenas are doing to almost every other free Muslim country. We rather have our money back we paid long ago for unkept F-35 delivery...

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Why F404? A stronger engine gives room to grow for heavier variants. No need to worry if engine could cause problems in a national first jet project since it is a very stable safe engine. F404 is designed for trainer jets according to GE. To minimize compressor stalls and other engine failures...

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    I couldn't find link to his speech but after first taxi test Kotil said KAAN could have flew (9 months ago) if he knew how far ahead of projections TF-X project was. He could have installed flight computer software etc back in March. So I highly doubt this "journalist" or the site who are not...

    He is making his own predictions guys. This geezer Bülent Aydemir is talking about his baseless prediction as if it is reality or as if someone said to him something perhaps because as you know plane paint is stripped to better accommodate tests. I don't know for sure. To me this is being an...

    America is consistently pro-Israel for example. No matter what they stick to their wrong policies. Would you say that is wiser than what Erdogan is doing? Making peace with Greeks for example despite their CONSISTENT belligerence when Israel puts herself in a collision course with Turks? I...

    I just don't want our people (especially Erdogan & co.) to acquire false bravado and belittle our foes when they did with Tayfun. I am saying it is not only possible but also EASY to stop these for modern systems. Don't assume Greek air defenses (Russian and American made) would have any issues...

    Air defense missiles are mach 4+. Any system having ANY difficulty detecting or stopping Mach 1 something rocket should be thrown to trash. Like most of the very old Russian systems in Syria. PAC-1: Mach 2.8 PAC-2/PAC-3: Mach 4.1 (5000 km/h)

    Sadly our Tubitak. The entity that should be giving our engineers brand new ways to create their inventions is just a google translator service. They just translate the English language research papers. Or keep repeating their most useless experiments.

    Lasers are perfect for space wars since there are no pesky air molecules that cause them to weaken via bloom by always being in the way. In fact low energy laser communication is already being used between far apart satellites. Now, how do we make science fictional laser weapons science and...

    Superalloys are such a super fascinating subject. Science fiction, espionage, fate of the nations all decided by arranging a few elements and making impossible possible. I believe this is how TEI intends to create 3D printed CMSX-10 turbine blades. Slower but easier way. I wonder what other...

    It did but humans were not allowed to think outside the box. Pilot was just there to promote the project. For example I have heard a story from TEI CEO Mahmut Akşit yesterday. He was talking how they created Şimşek target drone turbojet engines and delivered 12 of them but never received new...

    For me, megawatt laser weapons that somehow don't bloom are a must for 6th gen. If you have lasers you won't need fast speeds or AI team ups or any of the other not so new crap. We have heard NGAD broke SR71's records but I suspect it was for mere seconds. Considering how fuel hungry ramjets...

    TR HÜRJET-Advanced Jet Trainer/ Light attack aircraft

    What makes a jet trainer a trainer is mainly it's engine and two seat configuration not it's top speed. F404 can tolerate stall, bird strikes etc. by design. "Trainer" is not an excuse for bad design. It can be both aerodynamic, fast and a great trainer as long as it uses F404.

    F-16 RCS is 4-5 m2 not 1.2. That number could be for the American F-16s alone. Since they have various advanced coatings against both IR and radar called HAVE GLASS up to v5. Our F16s either completely lack or just have some very basic anti radar paint which doesn't make any meaningful...

    Guys, sorry for not being "patriotic" enough but WTH is going on with Hürjet tests? Not to mention ANKA3... When will we find out top altitude and speed of Hürjet? Why is it still flying subsonic like it's being piloted by an elderly? It should be able to fly at Mach 2.1 using F404 engine. If...

    @Nilgiri or anyone who can answer: As long as size, diameter stays the same among some other factors thrust of turbofan engines mainly depend on heat resistance of blade material. Is that accurate? And what would be the thrust for a F110 sized KAAN engine if TEI cannot get past 1200C and gets...
