M60T Within the scope of the FIRAT-M60T Project, a contract worth €109.245 million + TRY 25 million was signed on May 11, 2017, between the SSB and Aselsan during IDEF ‘17. It was declared that the Laser Warning System, Remote Controlled Weapon Systems, Close-Range Surveillance System, Robust...

I have to check, but from memory Aselsan was tasked to upgrade the M60 tanks (all upgraded and delivered) and BMC was tasked to upgrade the Leopard 2A4, which is thus far a big nothing except the showing of a prototype.

How many Leopard 2A4 mod have been delivered? Either none or we do not hear SSB talking about deliveries

Could it be that Tusas tries to get Malaysia on board for both Hurjet and TFx projects?

If the news is right Tusas submitted a bid to the Malaysian LCA light fighter aircraft tender with the Hürjet. https://www.aerotime.aero/29226-reports-on-malaysian-fighter-jet-tender-tejas-in-jf-17-out

Also with Jet engines Computers are the key factor it can be faster. Our TEI has tremendous experience and adding the experience of Ivchenko things could go faster (not that I am an expert on engines but as electronics engineer I do know the design power of CAD software)

Exactly designing and modeling nowadays of complex aircraft with simulation models is so much easier and faster (not that it is easy but todays computational power makes the design process of jets go faster with less teetering problems)

What happened with the Leopard 2A4 modernization. Is BMC that bad that they can't even deliver a modernization? Ethem de birakti kaçti

Majority shares would probably

The radar has a liquid cooling system. I do not think heating will be the problem but generating enough power. The British develop an entire new engine setup for their 6th generation fighter just because this power generation is very important with all the electronics But we do not know...

Bikinlik geldi valla, BMC varsa içinde kalsin! No more BMC tanks please!

Seithan hit the nail directly on the head. Jewish lobby is the keyword. The anti Israeli personal stance of Erdogan is 90% of the issue.

It's a stopgap. It won't be enough anyway. Only MMU would change something for Turkey

Lol there you are indeed right, F4 is 3rd generation. Point is that at this moment you should not think about introducing another 4th generation aircraft, unless it is a platform you make yourself like Hurjet where you have all the rights and implementation possibilities. The best is to stick...

I would know how to handle you but you should not mistake this forum for WAFF where there is no moderation and rules at all where trolls can highjack the whole purpose of the forum. Stay within the rules of the forum, don't make it a mess for others.

We have / had too We have F4 and F16 remember? But now that 5th generation aircraft are out, would it not be an Einstein deed to introduce another 4th generation?

Introduction of a new type 4th generation fighter jet is probably the dumbest that we can do (unless it is our own product like Hurjet)

IMO we do not even need 40 new F16's. Upgrade the blk 30/40 to Özgür level (close to blk 70), this will take several years approx to 2025, by that time also blk 50 will be old enough to modify the plane at will. Upgrade those to Özgür+. Around 2026-27 most likely the light fighter jet of...

That's why I like to have a clear answer on whether our blk 50's still require US permission, if yes till when? Seems that nobody can answer this for sure and nobody strangely is asking Ismail Demir in all those interviews he is giving.

On the contrary, Ozgur project is ready and prototype F16-Ozgur has been on tests for a long time (only the AESA radar of Aselsan is / was not ready yet) It is not for nothing that 35 blok 30's get their structural upgrade prior to serial özgür upgrade
