Kaan league is shaping up

As much as I want to have a second promising maker working on some critical national projects I don't want to hear the lbf abbreviation be pronounced as libre feet as the MSB Arge manager did in an NTV interview.

There was only the MOD himself in the MSB Arge presentations as a politician and himself is the previous Chief of Staff an old school officer from the olden times. And all he does as a political message is to place flashy Atatürk signatures on their display objects which is not very welcome...

The bigger the missile the more the speed but you can have more of the smaller missiles to shoot as they are small and easier to handle and all, you need variety.

Obviously they will make the TF35k engine quicker rather than slower.

Upgrading existing systems to ballistic capability is a shortcut that can save time and provide earlier ballistic coverage, thankfully.

I am pretty sure there are several dozen engines in stock already and they can do a certain job with them. Future versions can have different engines. Users do not really have alternatives to Kızılelma so it is like a sure bet to acquire Kızılelma with Ukrainian engine.

Making bigger claims than what is actually being delievered do not create any additional political gains. Who cares if you can hit at 6000 km range when all your opponents are within 3000 km range.

Curious if deliveries of Kızılelma to Indonesia will happen before deliveries to TSK.

Kaan APU starter engine, while this is made for fighter jets you can possibly repurpose it to power a flying car for two.

Seems to me that MSB Arge is a project of the current MOD and it punches above its head and mostly gives political messages. MOD said "There won't be hesitation to use these weapons". While it is also a technical matter as the weapons are not of the dirty type hence they can be used more freely...

Yes for manufacturing but no for R&D.

We can make the TF35k engine with better quality in that same time-frame.

If they want to make turbines they should make ship engines, there is a high demand in the world for power turbines too because of AI datacenters which the existing powergrids can not support.

"A handful of R&D personnel are trying to produce" But why, the ministry is not meant to be a manufacturing body.

Millî Savunma Bakanı Yaşar Güler, SAHA 2026 Fuarı’nda Bakanlığımız AR-GE Merkezi tarafından üretilen yeni teknolojileri kamuoyuna açıkladı. Davetlilerin yoğun ilgi gösterdiği tanıtım töreninde; Ülkemizin ilk sıvı roket yakıtlı, hipersonik hızda seyir yapabilen ve en uzun menzile sahip...

Agreement signed for the TF35k engine

He failed to say that he himself mentioned many moons ago that the TF35k engine will hit 43k. Just because the engine is shown by MSB Arge does not mean it is them who is making the engine. I have a hunch that this engine carcas is one of the early engine builds used by TEI to test their engine...

I am guessing the MSB Arge engine is one of TEI early TF35k builds. Nobody makes a metal engine as a show display piece. @ErayGüçlüer
