    How is this inventory project of the forum coming along? We can't keep track of things anymore.

    İsmail Demir's statements seem pretty new, after the latest Hisar A+ tests. I guess somebody should warn somebody to tell the truth. I am confused, not convinced.

    Hisar A+ and O+ numbers seem to be a little off. "Onun üzerine Hisar O+’yı geliştirdik. Bunda da 10 kilometrenin üzerinde bir irtifa, 25 kilometre civarında bir menzile ulaşacağız." Said Mr İsmail Demir reportedly.

    When the gap filler has a range of 100 km effective what does this mean for the top of the line Siper range. I guess it will be around 150km effective.

    Covid-19 Pandemic and Turkey

    All of the news I heard for ready date are for September or October of 2021 or even earlier. Vaccines can be approved for immediate use even. I think we will put vaccines in use as early as it gets. However availability in large quantities may indicate later dates.

    Covid-19 Pandemic and Turkey

    Our national pharmaceutical industry should be the main source for our national use. Other options should be no more than a temporary remedy. Turns out that more than two shots will be required for a lasting effect. Even a prescription of a two shots a year until the pandemic ends will be...

    That means going cheap on RnD. There is also the export market where lesser planes can bring a return. Countries who can not afford a full grown plane can afford a trainer turned fighter. I would adopt that one engine two planes approach a few years ago when the Hürjet was not in its advanced...

    German exhaust manifold has a rectangular cross section while Korean and Turkish ones have circular. Would you be making it ellipsoid for the sake of making a difference, I wouldn't.

    When I take a close look I see that the parts resembling the Korean engine are also resembling the German engine with the only difference with the tubular side railing. The cylinders on the left end are also one more with the BMC engine than others.

    This is good and all but TAIS is supposed to work on engines 100x as powerful. When they talk they will talk big, but where are they? "The project will start with medium speed large (6,000-10,000 Kw) diesel main engines will continue with smaller (1,000-2,000 Kw) diesel auxiliary and main engines."

    It is a common knowledge that smaller turbines like the TS1400 has lower efficiency than larger turbines and diesels. Large turbines have around 36% while large diesels have around 50%. The author simply considers the case when we have no other option.

    Turbines are relatively inefficient for power generation for ships. They should only be used for when the available space is small. Otherwise Diesel engines are the best which means the closest capability we have to the ideal is the BATU engine of BMC Power. If other companies like TAIS and some...

    We can possibly make a domestic engine for Hürjet too once we have advanced the work for the TFX engine. It will be relatively easy to do so. Until we make such an engine small production numbers with stocked engines will be acceptable. It will even be a good test of capabilities before we start...

    I hope one day we can launch telescopes for space observations too. Which are pretty much larger versions of earth observing cameras. Probably as part of our space weather observation program.
