It does not happen just like snap to take a chunk of the weapons market dominated by big players. Just like how TB2 swept the place off of the competition Hürjet and others will play a similar role. All of our weapons systems for that matter. Let's see what happens after the US midterms. We will...

Twin engine Hürjet, now! Twin engine Hürjet, now! Twin engine Hürjet, now!

We can already make the hard parts, the ancillary parts are easier to make. Fuel and oil pumps and such are just a matter of time to make. Kale made them themselves for their KTJ engines.

We don't need outside help to make our planes fly we only need to work harder to make them in house. We can see how Aselsan can locally make imported parts through local industry companies. Same process can be started sooner than later for TEI projects.

Because PD170 has better high altitude performance.

I don't think this kind of systems can be regional as the satellites have to rotate around the world to maintain orbit. This means that the system must cover a belt around the world.

We don't know if it was designed to accomodate that engine alone, it looked like it can accomodate larger engines in terms of volume. But still the weight change need to be addressed. They may have to change the structure of the plane but still it may cause a setback of several months and not more.

It shows as a UFO on the radar screen at best.

I wonder if Baykar will be able to adapt the KE to the EJ2000 engine without modifying the plane's size or doing other major modifications. We know the engine houseing diameter is large enough for one thing.

Which includes Russian "special operation forces", ironicly.

You guys are seeing a mirage

That would be too fast for a target drone, it would put all of our missiles to shame.

Kızılelma can be multinational just like JSF F35 is. But this time under Turkish lead.

TF6000 engine should come online ASAP. It does not need to be matured for it to be deployed. Being a little underpowered than how it is intended to be will not make much of a difference it only needs to keep delivering the amount of power it is rated to deliver. In other words it only needs to...

Baykar should activate Blacksea Shield Company to produce engines in Türkiye as they can make engines cheaply.

Since the Kızılelma is a development aircraft I presume it will first be tested for long runway operation which is safer to do and be adapted for carrier operation afterwards.

I guess it totally depends on how well the development process goes. If they pass the developments stages smoothly without setbacks then I believe it can be ready for deployment earlier than planned.

Russia schooled our students in their nuclear engineering university didn't they.

That's absolutely true. But for longer and longer ranges we might utilize planes to launch bigger missiles. They can both be ramjet or scramjet or regular rockets like the Tayfun. What I am suggesting as an exploratory project is to piggyback a large missile on a small plane. And also perhaps...

I have been wondering if a larger missile like the Tayfun can be launched from Kızılelme or any plane for that matter. A plane has a limited carrying capacity for weapons on its pylons but a similar problem was solved for the now retired space shuttle by carrying it on top of a Boeing 747...
