What do you think TAI will unveil tomorrow? Any guesses?

Can we just drop this engine discussion? This is TFX thread, not engine thread. We have discussed this problem many times at length in propulsion thread. Regurgitating the same things over and over again is a waste of time. The members who want to know more about it should visit the propulsion...

The vehicle is called Ravn X. A drone that launches satellites to LEO? It's not from TAI. https://www.aerospace-technology.com/projects/ravn-x-autonomous-launch-vehicle-aulv/

😂 😂 Please don't move it to the politics section. It's not politics, just funny.

I'm not claiming that it's going to be a smooth run. There's always a chance of failure. And since I'm not in the industry, I cannot truly appreciate the difficulty of developing a large turbine engine. But we are not naive. We've been developing the necessary technologies and have been building...

OK, I'll bite. Turkey has successfully cast SCB(single crystal blades) in 2015 for the first time. And TÜBİTAK MAM has been developing the technology ever since. Recently, Mahmut Akşit said that they're using 3rd generation SCB for their turbines. TÜBİTAK MAM has also developed TBC for TS1400...

You're dodging the question. Name the technologies we are currently lacking that will take 25 years to develop. And who cares about 5th gen engines. What we need is a powerful and reliable engine. The 5th gen aspect of it is welcome whenever it's ready. Besides, Mahmut Aksit said they're...

A shortsighted argument. I wish the ones who claim "it'll take decades because it took such and such country that long" would provide a deeper insight to what specifically took the time to develop so that we could examine TEI's capabilities in that regard and conclude if we are, indeed, up for...

Why does BAYKAR split the control surfaces of their drones to many pieces? Is that because their actuators are too weak? AKINCI has three actuators just for the rudder. And look at KIZILELMA's wings. A single wing has 5 of them.

TFX will be the "thing" that will utterly shatter that kebab man image. That being said, the ice cream men need to go. I hate them. They kill my appetite for the sweet. If I had to buy one, I'd put a straight face and warn him not to do the tricks without moving a single muscle on my face.

Is it just me or the forum started growing exponentially, lately? I see many new names everyday. This wasn't the case before.

Ask if before why. They're being tested in parallel.

It won't be ready by the end of this year. The CEO had said the first prototype was going to be fired in Q1 2023 but since we had trouble acquiring the necessary accessory gearbox, we won't see it running in the first half of 2023. About the testing campaign, I think it will be tested on the...

The problem is not that we have fetish of 100% Turkish content. The problem is to make the aircraft ITAR-free. The US or any other country shouldn't have the power to axe any export agreement TFX achieves in the future.

Money is not the problem. Even if you had two decades and a one trillion dollars budget, you couldn't land an astronaut to the moon by your own means. Developing the necessary technologies cannot be compressed into a decade, no matter how much money you throw at it. It's like Greece claiming...

You need to read more about their achievements. Seeing them as a rival is ridiculous. We should have our own pace and rockets tailored for our needs. Talking about human spaceflight at this stage will only discredit our work.

I don't think TUA can overtake ISRO in the next two decades, if ever.

Indian, if I remember correctly. I've read every piece of text written about TFX that day 😂

Sweet November

You always have to know more than us. Always a step ahead, right? You rascal! 😂 😂
