I am all for a TRMotor developed domestic engine. It is also a matter of national pride to have such an engine other than being a matter of national security. It won't matter if a first iteration engine may not be satisfactory, we keep trying until we make it.
No, it is you misunderstanding, Türkiye is an investor friendly country, easy to do business, you do not have to corner foreign investors to invest in Türkiye but they will find it profitable to invest in Türkiye. There is attraction and not compulsion.
When economies of scale are met for specific products investment can be made by foreigners and locals alike. Türkiye has a favorable investment environment and it is more like pull rather than push for investment.
Australian researchers develop a new technique that stores hydrogen in powders particularly boron compounds. Good news for boron miners and electric propulsion developers.

I wonder if more Russian gas can flow to Europe through Türkiye.
Gas importing countries will need to hasten their efforts to find additional supplies. I wonder if Libya can come in to play on a fast track. Drilling for hydrocarbons by Türkiye is more beneficial then ever and that is not only...
Having contacted with Macron a couple of dozens times Erdoğan should know what can be possible with France with all of the implications of their decisions. Such a deal is never to be seen as a one time interaction.
Political repartitioning of the market and technological breakthroughs can change the picture drastically. Imagine technologies like hybrids of detonation engines and turbine engines become a thing and realized by new makers. Or the iron curtain of the past century emerges in a new guise then...
Yeah but advancing technology gets harder as you go higher. This means that those who were left in the dust once can catch up easier as time passes. The technologies that took many decades to acquire becomes easier to acquire. Newcomers progress with strides rather than with baby steps. Türkiye...
If you will be able to deploy plenty of them then their locations will not matter all that much. But when you only have a few of them you don't want their locations to be known.
We are selling 4 replenishment/refueling ships to India. We have sold 30% of one of our small military drone companies to Indians. I don't think we need to outsource our weapons development.
Radar guidance of weapons will be a first for Baykar so air to air engagement will probably be the last capability to be implemented but Baykar will not waste anytime to poor planning as its radar should also be ready by the time the plane is good for flying. As long as the components are...
India can use drones to counter actions of China too, so they have other concerns than Pakistan alone. If it becomes a problem for Pakistan we can stop selling more, but we should start selling first so that we can stop selling later.
The systems first triad on Akıncı can pave the way for faster deployment on MIUS. Also MIUS's success in simply flying will mean it is only a matter of time to implement ancillary systems. And that time can always be shrunken by hard work. Even a few flying prototypes can give operational...
This design is no heavy lifter.
The tilted rotors pose some risk of malfunctioning.
But if they can make it work well it will be fast and agile.
All three rotors are tiltable so it is safe to assume it is pure electric powered which means small amount of energy for payload or endurance. Can do...
US, Russia and China have more at risk downing somebody else's satellite. We have our hand in laser weapons development too, we can get there in due time. Every system needs to be backed up with alternate means for better reliability. Quantum communication can play a role in this also.
