    Baykar's special condition is they brought Turkey the capability to drop bombs on enemies which otherwise would probably take another decade for our industry to accomplish. Because they cared.

    We don't know if better image means better accuracy.

    TEI is part American, anything it acquires from Motor Sich will give them a say. I am not sure if they can make roadblocks in this case. Probably some other formula involving TR Motor and Baykar can be more favorable. Not that Baykar can shovel good amounts of money but when they have the...

    End product quality is paramount, you need to make sure you use top quality components to make top quality unmanned combat air vehicles. If the weight of FLIR was 10kg more and it could see a blurry image and other components didn't work as well as they did we highly likely would not be talking...

    TR HÜRJET-Advanced Jet Trainer/ Light attack aircraft

    Once they find a good way operating Hürjet from Anadolu they may probably want to start building TCG Trakya with the modifications built in a short time. They should finish the LHD duo business once they have started before they can move on to the Carrier. Other than the Hürjet and the TB3 one...

    IP rights are per country, if they are not taken by someone in a particular country you can use them as you please in that country. Well, if they are taken then you can be sued for it. We expected PG115 to be used for TB2 but it never happened, so there must be a good reason.

    It will be quite some time before we get a full size carrier therefore our engineers should be expected to push the limits to make Hürjet operate from LHD Anadolu. Somebody should start a bet about this.

    They are studying the possibility of using Hürjet on TCG Anadolu too, not just on a full blown Carrier.

    $ 1 mn is dirt cheap but I think it should be more like around $ 1.75 mn. And there is the cost of control stations where still more than 500 pieces of planes is a hefty proposition. These planes can be opportunistically used to bomb and rocket many things. Also Akıncı is in the pipeline and can...

    You are obviously unaware of the availability of these parts. These parts have only recently been available from Turkish manufacturers and only with limited numbers and some with unsuitable specs. Please stick with facts and realities.

    Are you saying it would be fortunate if Baykar were stipulated to use Turkish made components from the beginning. What components would you find suitable for Baykar to use and why?

    TR HÜRJET-Advanced Jet Trainer/ Light attack aircraft

    Contrary to previously announced number of mach 1.4 the representative in the video of post #862 says the speed will be up to mach 1.3 He is calling it mah instead of mak. Is it a different thing than the mach we know or is he lying?

    Hürjet's max speed is targeted as mach 1.3, tells something about the engine but who can interpret with lots of dots missing.

    Other companies should put more things on the table cutting out foreign dependence. We don't need products with strings attached to them for our armed forces. Consolidation is a good thing if you watch out for pitfalls like low product quality. High domestic input with minimal supply chain risk...

    Murad Bayar was acceptable for his time but when Turkey was to shift gears the times of Murad Bayar was to be left in the dust.

    "Lazer entegre montaj fikstürü kontrol sistemi" Laser integrated assembly fixture control system If you guys remember the KFX assembly line large piece placement tooling, I guess a similar system is being developed for TFX and Hürjet.

    When I read the details I see that they hope to get something from solar panels which is futile, as solar panels can create little electric and their weight is not worth the trouble especially with a VTOL plane. Also the configuration is in serial hybrid and electric motors are used for the...
