Main point of TF-X was INDEPENDENCE from superpowers like USA, Russia, China. Istikbal (The Future) name is not bad either but ISTIKLAL means Independence, Freedom, Liberty. The "priceless" thing all non-superpower nations like us desperately want & need. Independence Fighter (İstiklal...

War is pre-declared in 90s in Turkish senate as in "casus belli". Even suggesting that Türkiye may not go to war over being blocked in Aegean is against all Turkish interests. Months later Greece will unite with Cyprus (ENOSIS) as current EOKA terror group supporting Cyprus president suggested...

I am worried about a war with Greece since they openly said they are going to increase their territorial water to 12 miles if Erdogan loses the elections. They are against Turkiye using even the word Aegean in tourism ads. And at this point yanks are clearly 100% against us militarily and their...

It is a disgrace to still not having upgraded the entire F-16 fleet to viper level locally. I am embarrassed for TUSAS and Aselsan. Since they themselves do not seem to have any shame for making us beg for extremely overpriced stuff from yanks.

Whole point of a tank is STRONG PROTECTION. Where is the Akkor test video? How will Altay protect itself from slow quadcopters with antitank grenades and ATGMs without a single proof of Akkor working? Until then all I see is an expensive metal coffin. That's why Russian tanks are being left...

A stealth interceptor/air superiority fighter with 100+kW 2000+ modules GaN LPIR loaded with 200+ km range ramjet Gokhan missiles should give pause to anyone including Su-57, F-35, J-20 and even F-22. I am most curious about it's actual RCS & max altitude. F-22 with 65.000 feet could have a...

True but difference is who identifies whom first? The plane with even SLIGHTLY better IR stealth will "see first, shoot first" when other parameters are equal. Imagine TF-X going against F-22 for some reason... It is not just about detection it is also deadly critical in evading AA missiles...

Sheesh. So many talkers not enough listeners. Stealth is not just about radar stealth mate. The more you HIDE your exhaust and nozzles (hottest parts incase people cant figure that out too) better your INFRARED spectrum stealth. It is embarrasing as a Turk to have to spell it out this to so...

No it is not better to wait and see. It is better to notice the mistakes BEFORE spending billions of dollars going the wrong way like China did. That is why USA uses supercomputer simulations to design perfect features for optimal stealth, speed etc, not the try and fail then try to fix it 10...

I was talking about the last 2 models (mockup & animation) not the decade old ones. This protoype however looks more like bulky F-35 (fat Amy) and alot less like a sleek 2.5 Mach F22 air superiority fighter. With that nonaerodynamic cockpit it has zero chance of reaching those speeds.

Raising RCS and heat signature by putting vertical stabilizers on top of the engines has nothing to do with "my feelings". Stealth is more important than other requirements. That is why other countries did not make this MISTAKE. Not even Russia.

Angles. Cockpit is too high, that is one of the reasons plane looks "off". But only from this new angle you can see how severe it is. Just my opinion.

Either earlier models by those same people were wrong or this thing. Which is it? Again this is not about who I am. We are talking about technical concepts not the people here.

Clearly everyone with eyes noticed that TF-X is looking wonky/off. I listed the reasons why that is in my opinion & how to fix it. No need to make it about me. But this is how the people of this country are, sadly. You are supposed to apploud and never point out any mistakes.

Yeah you'd think so but unfortunately they are going the WRONG WAY! They had a supreme looking model in the animation. They raised the cockpit ridicilously high, made cockpit glass spherical, put vertical stabilizers that were supposed to partially hide nozzle heat signature on top of the...

This looks more like Fat Amy (F-35s nick name in the DCS game community) not F22. This non streamlined body cant see Mach 2.2 or even 1.8 unlike the one from the animations from just a few months ago. The plane on the animation looked like an arrow, this looks like Fat Amy had a kid with Iran's...

Problem is the centuries old GENETIC western Turkophobia. After Russian Warplane was shot down they took away Patriots and run away (except Spain). Erdogan went to Russia and apologized to pilot's family and Putin personally to deescalate Davutoglu's reckless mess. Meanwhile I have read...

So GE pockets %46 of the TEI's profits but doesn't help with CAATSA and other US senate secret embargos? What a great partner.

US F-16s are about to get anti-missile laser pods. What is keeping us to adapt a version of Turkish ALKA Laser to all our fighter jets and drones? Integrated in stealth ones or as pods in others? This weapon is supposed to be mandatory in 6th gen but is there a reason not to add it before that...
