    Sukhoi of Russia, you need to differentiate from Sukhoi, hence S-25 Kartal Kartal / eagle being the strongest predatory bird's family name.

    Malaysia LCA Program News & Discussion

    TAI offered to make the first 3 Hürjets in Turkey and assemble the remaining 15 in Malaysia for the LCA tender. This should satisfy the 30% local input requirement of the Malaysian government. And we still need to get used to the idea of consuming more palm oil.

    10 is the class name for the maximum take off weight, and actually and specifically it is 11 tons. However Temel Kotil had mentioned 11.5 tons in the past.

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    No offense but 1500 out of 2250 makes 67% rather than 75. Perhaps he calculates the finished portion of the remaining 750 parts into the overall.

    There are supposed to be two more nuclear power plants planned but they will probably get going with the second one before they move on with the third one. Also the possibility of Thorium based nuclear can play a big role if the project advances to a mature state. I believe traditional fission...

    The production of TFX only needs to be completed before 18 March 2023 when it is planned to roll out of the hanger for show. The statement "the TFX engine will work in 2022" (which I had not heard before) should mean a static run of the engine installed on the plane at best (as opposed to an...

    Air-Force Turkey asks U.S. to buy 40 F-16 jets to upgrade Air Force

    It is a positive thing that the prospect of our getting whole planes and update kits from the US is getting bleaker, we should only look into getting engines for our development planes and we will do the F16 upgrades ourselves.

    I wouldn't bother if the term was not used to define capabilities of TEI, like TEI is A leader in all engines internally combusted, LOL.

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    There are few planes with thrust vectoring and the complications and the additional weight it will put on the plane is not worth the effort at this day and age.

    Turbine engines are also internal combustion engines but TEI do not make them for planes. And Ukrainian firms do not make piston engines currently. (As opposed to external combustion engines which is basically a Sterling engine)
