    That's one hot piece of hardware (and software). The number of countries that can make one of these is less than a dozen.

    There is always the possibility of some gangsters trying to give signals that they are not dead yet, you never know. Sincere people's failures are always tolerable as long as they are proven sincere.

    Probably it is only the combustion chambers of turboshaft engines that can be used for turbofans if any. Most likely they have to be clean sheet jobs.

    Minister Akar was also mad. It is not easy to bring things together for a live stream but a few heads can roll justifiably if there is a purposeful action. My heart goes to the whole team working for this dream to come true.

    Kind of, I don't know why. But that engine is suitable for two seat civilian planes too.

    UCAV and Hürjet turbofans ? A dream coming true if true.They are sparing no effort.

    I guess the engines make up 20% of the cost of a civilian helicopter.

    The 30.000 hour flight time engine must be the elusive PG115.

    The numbers given for the engine weight should get clarified. Is it the whole package or are there some parts left out? The definite number can be given when the engine gets certified. We should be delighted with the indicative numbers nonetheless.

    It is not a clear cut decision to go for IEP. There are ups and downs to each system. And the list of large IEP ships is still a very short one. The complexity of electrical systems of an IEP ship causes unexpected problems which happened to the second of the US Zumwalt class ship during trials...

    You need to look harder to see the reasons why we can be denied the engines we want from RR and GE. And LM2500 is only good up to mid size ships. Electric conversion is a costly thing in terms of fuel consumption. You only get half the efficiency of when you use combustion directly. Therefore...

    It seems to be the natural way of things. Initiatives are initiated by pioneers and when they are bearing fruit they are consolidated and reorganized for better productivity and optimization of resources. Loving it.

    Thing wouldn't happen if it was not for Ethem Sancak. Others did not even dare nor did they want to give Turkey the power we need.

    Ethem Sancak also talked about this saying they will develop the aeroderivative engine for the future Turkish aircraft carrier. Probably as a function of TRmotor company where both BMC and TAI are party to while TEI is a subsidiary of TAI. Lucky of us they don't push this work to the far future...

    I have already got patent support from Tubitak once. Bigg is for new graduates others have their conditions and everyone of them requires that you have your own money to start with. Angel investors are my best bet. Until of course you already have money and can employ engineers. But I have a...

    Those suckers discriminate people on age and education. I don't have an engineering degree and I can not be considered young. But I have the ingenuity and a passion for making history in aviation which don't get evaluated by those who thinks they know better. But there are people in the world...

    Our chip is powerless, the cheapest smartphone on the market sports a 32nm chip. We don't know how many years it will take for us to get there from our intended 65nm and single core to multiple core. Update: For the record I have found one of each of 45nm 40nm and 32nm smart phones that are...

    Give us 7 years ok, no rush. There are 3-4 Turkish brands in the market already but they don't make the components. Some make the mainboard though.
