    Turns out that the F110 engine's Turbine inlet temperature: 2,750 °F (1,510 °C) If we can handle 1600 °C we have safely mastered the art and science of it. Turns out that 1600 °C was the record temperature in quite recent year of 2011, by MHI. If we are already in this ballpark we are good...

    Indigenous is the final stop, you can not get past it. RR involvement is rather an impediment than a boost in the way of going indigenous as the financial cost of it can get in the way of domestic development. In the worst case eventuality indigenous development timeline get extended an...

    Turbine blades will be under more stress but there will be more real estate on them to use for better cooling too. After all it is supposed to be produced within Türkiye and RR will only help design it. So where will the blades come from if not Tübitak/TEI. Will Kale make them, of course not...

    I bet you are aware that Mr. Akşit says the first engine always takes longer to develop while subsequent engines cut the time by half. So looking at the timeline of TS1400 requires spacial looking glasses to evaluate it correctly. He even said the third engine developed takes even less time, for...

    There is undisclosed information about capabilities of Türkiye, I wouldn't say that we have no capabilities to achieve the objectives before 2033 when the chiefs of the industry say they can. We can go for what suits us rather than take whatever offer is given to us. We should never try to...

    Obviously SSB does not want to miss out on what RR can bring to the table while also not lose control of IP rights of the engine. RR will only design the engine and not be involved in production. I would simply take the risk of delays and go solo with TR Motor. The more unrelated to foreign...

    For individual products it is straight forward but for industry average considering new capabilities that are destined to come online for the first time it is harder to make today's calculations as they will be factored in when they are realized.

    MoD Akar mentioned 75% to 80% for 2023 for self reliance in defense sector. He later only mentioned 80%. From 75-80% in 2023 to 2028 things will speed up I guess and I believe it will hit 90% by end of 2028.

    I think there is not a definite method for calculation and it should have a degree of error of + or - 5 points. I do not take it by price of things but by the coverage of technology areas and their secondary effects.

    The projects going on in military area and civil area are telling. Recently there are more localization efforts then there was before. Ranging from chip making to screen technology and to thorium reactors and such, not to mention the very well known military projects. This is my personal...

    Saying what? Obviously they will make the engine only if their proposal is favored. I bet Temel Kotil knows better.

    I am all for a TRMotor developed domestic engine. It is also a matter of national pride to have such an engine other than being a matter of national security. It won't matter if a first iteration engine may not be satisfactory, we keep trying until we make it.

    No, it is you misunderstanding, Türkiye is an investor friendly country, easy to do business, you do not have to corner foreign investors to invest in Türkiye but they will find it profitable to invest in Türkiye. There is attraction and not compulsion.

    When economies of scale are met for specific products investment can be made by foreigners and locals alike. Türkiye has a favorable investment environment and it is more like pull rather than push for investment.

    Australian researchers develop a new technique that stores hydrogen in powders particularly boron compounds. Good news for boron miners and electric propulsion developers. https://newatlas.com/energy/mechanochemical-breakthrough-unlocks-cheap-safe-powdered-hydrogen/

    I wonder if more Russian gas can flow to Europe through Türkiye. Gas importing countries will need to hasten their efforts to find additional supplies. I wonder if Libya can come in to play on a fast track. Drilling for hydrocarbons by Türkiye is more beneficial then ever and that is not only...
