Probaly a foreign user can be the first user to fire a Siper2 interceptor to a real hostile target. Skies are quieter nowadays, but a prudent user can deploy a system just in case.
We assembled F16 in the past but this does not count I think.
But who needs somebody else's assembly line to start their own project.
In this day and age you can do it your way.
China's aviation story is long but the world moves faster now.
Political tensiones can make the norm of today a thing of the past.
If you can make planes work there will be users not because you are the best but because you are there.
The poorest quality you can afford to make today will be...
Things you can't do now you can do tomorrow. This is a business that will bear fruit in 8 to 10 years. In that time frame the world will change several times over. Look at Russia their aviation is suffering and they are striving to make their own engines and planes. China is a big market and...
If it is for a new design aircraft to be produced both by Embraer and TAI then it would be OK otherwise a waste of time.
TAI should be looking for an aircraft that is in high demand around the world. And it is no other than the Airbus A320neo and Boeing 737Max single aisle class. This class is...
Probably the simplest way to use existing capabilities to launch space rockets is using two of our LST ships side by side and making a temporary larger platform on top of them. Our rockets will mostly be 30m 40m and 50m long rockets weighing up to 200 tons. It is like launching the weight of an...
3.5 ton to sGTO; if this payload can be launched from İğneada (which we don't know for sure but is highly likely) the same rocket can launch 4.7+ ton (by physics) from an equatorial location like the shores of Somalia.
"Total Independence in Space" can not be achieved without launching your...
Per Mr Murat İkinci's statements Şimşek-1 and Şimşek-2 rocket developments are rapidly progressing and they are kind of counting days towards launch. While the estimated timeline starts from 2027 for launch the programs can get ahead of time. Şimşek-3 however will come after these two and will...
I believe once reasonable demand numbers of engines in each derivative class of the TF6000 engine can be foreseen development towards that branch will be started.
That would be good but people are not so patient and want to know ASAP. There is the TF6000 engine which has already run and supposedly achieved the design power level and the TF10000 engine actively being developed so there is precedence and credibility behind expectations. I don't think anyone...
Things will get a lot more complicated going forward as there is a bill to increase the level of integration between the US and Israel military joint development. Possibly the US will use more and more of Israel made components in the future which will need approval of Israel. This can surely...
