    From 1200kg MTOW value I would say that it is a PD180 / PD222 powered, propeller driven plane. Anka is 1500kg with PD155, the remaining power margin goes to seaworthiness requirements.

    Reporter needs more insight. Satellite resolution means objects bigger than the specified resolution dimension can be seen as one or more pixels. However the exact resolution is not given although the color resolution reveals that it is like 90-95cm or so.

    LOL, Hürjet is not a VTOL plane, if a VTOL plane is to be made it will be something else.

    From Ismail Demir's words I conclude that they are looking for a jet VTOL fighter and the way I described in my previous post is the only way we can make it with domestic resources within 2 years . Such a plane would be around 5 tons (mtow) and it better be unmanned. It can be supersonic and can...

    a VTOL aircraft requires a special engine that acts both as a jet engine and a turboshaft engine. At least this is what F35B is like. However if you want to make things simple you can use two separate engines, one for jet thrust out the back and the other to drive the lift fan like propfan (high...

    Thrust to weigh ratio must be critical, an underpowered plane may not be able to take off on its installed engine power alone. We had a precedence for a while now but it is no guarantie that some other plane will have the same performance. There must be a threshold or something otherwise our...

    If the engine is powerful enough it can probably take of without catapult assist otherwise a Hürjet size electromagnetic catapult need to be installed. One that sits above deck without alteration below deck can possibly be developed, making us all happy.

    It will definitely have much longer range when it is dropped from high altitude. However speed will be slower as oxygen levels are lower at altitude which leads to poorer combustion performance. There are conditions that work for and against better performance. Combustion is poorer at altitude...

    And the HIK radar carrier plane would probably be Akıncı which is the highest powered unmanned plane available.

    Yavuz simply tripled the Ottoman land size, I love it. There maybe people who do not want Ottoman greatness, shame on them. I would rate leaders' strenght based on how much opposition they managed to overcome both in wars and otherwise and how much power they gathered for the nation both hard...

    When Bayraktar started dropping bombs it was the only one that could do so. Akıncı is the faster runner of all of them. These two planes are the ones that do a better job than others. They are the ones that broadened the envelope of Turkey's capabilities. There is no thing that these two planes...

    I didn't even know exactly where the name came from until now, this is how much it means to me. And the name was not there to stay as we call the planes Bayraktar now, and very few people remembers its prototype name. In history even same father brothers waged war between them so both the...

    I don't have a lot of things to say about them but simply put; people will not be happy fostering differences/grievances, it will wear us off while I want to gather all the power we can as I don't settle for less.

    You are loaded with misconceptions and all and I will not discuss anymore. No, I really mean well when I said a treat. It is not in my power alone to make it happen but I still have a say in it. It is not a treat because of favoritism but because it is fitting. I would calmly celebrate it if I...

    Alevis have to make peace with the facts of Turkish history and stop hating the Turkish government. We won't stop naming stuff with the great names we had in hisotry because somebody has a dislike for it. We have too many big projects to name after all. But I have a little treat for Alavis if I...

    I found the answer that is has at least been done once, just the way I thought. It is not very reliable but is acceptable viable. Two helicopters are separated by a beam on which the payload is attached in whatever configuration. The beam helps keep the helicopters separated. This way two or...
