    TR Politics

    My approach is critical, and by no means blind: a philosophy has taken root in the current political landscape that leaves me deeply doubtful. It is not enough to simply express a desire to replace the incumbent government; I am missing a concrete, substantial election platform. There are no...

    TR Politics

    That may be partly true, but it’s not unique to the AKP; nepotism will always exist—it has always been there and will continue to be there in the future, no matter who comes to power; nobody does anything for free, and inflation isn’t a phenomenon that affects only the AKP either. I don’t need...

    As many here in the forum know, I generally sympathize with Erdoğan, without being a blind supporter. While undeniable and serious mistakes have been made in domestic policy, I view these as the price the country must pay for its foreign policy and strategic independence. Turkey's path toward an...

    TR Twin-Engine HÜRJET: Could a TF6000-Derived Naval Variant Fill MUGEM's Fighter Gap?

    A conventional + maritime Aircraft (All in One Workhorse) with Stealth capabilities, equipped with two TF-14000 engines (modified from TF-10000 engines), would be sufficient as both a manned and unmanned system. I would even experiment with exotic design approaches and develop the Aircraft as a...

    TR Air Defence Programs

    The Patriot battery will only stay for 1–2 months… that’s nothing at all. It would have been better to reject the offer. The German media and especially the comments on the articles about the PATRIOT Transfer to Turkey show just how much hatred toward Turkey has been stoked over the years by...

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Impossible? How did the Americans keep the B-21 Raider and many other aircraft under wraps? No one knew that a successor to the B-2 Spirit was being built, let alone tested. Unofficial test flights, or test flights closed to the public, are nothing out of the ordinary; both Hürjet aircraft have...

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    I see it differently, and who’s to say the aircraft hasn’t already been flown behind closed doors? The point is – and this is, of course, just speculation on my part – that in July all NATO member states will be coming to Turkey for the NATO summit. What could be more symbolic than flying the...

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    I believe the KAAN will fly between July 7 and 8, which is exactly when the NATO summit is taking place in Turkey. The flight is intended to be seen by the very people who are likely to be provoked by it as a show of force.

    TR UAV/UCAV Programs | Anka - series | Kızılelma | TB - series

    Then they should start working on the folding wings for the Anka 3 right now, rather than waiting until the Aircraft Carrier (MUGEM) arrives to begin development. The same applies to the Hürjet and Kizilelma—the project should be completed by the time the Aircraft Carrier is officially...

    TR HÜRJET-Advanced Jet Trainer/ Light attack aircraft

    We can’t run three aircraft programs at the same time—after all, we’re not the U.S. or China. I’ve said it before: The Hürjet should have been built with two Ivchenko Progress AI322F engines from the start. If these were replaced with improved TF-10000 engines, e.g., with 8,000 lbf of dry...

    Ultra Left separatist terrorist organizations like the PKK/YPG and their ilk have only themselves to blame—what did they think, that their ideology would genuinely interest any institution in the world, other than themselves?

    TR Defence Exports & Updates

    That is complete nonsense – all ballistic missiles with a range of over 300 km and a payload of over 500 kg are subject to export controls. Turkey is a member of the MTCR (Missile Technology Control Regime) and is subject to an export ban on this technology.

    TR Propulsion Systems

    I also believe that the Güçhan 42000 is likely a rebranded F-110 engine, assembled through global MRO channels using overhauls, spare parts and proprietary components (e.g. the cold section) – a ‘Frankenstein’ engine. The whole display at SAHA 2026 serves only to demonstrate that this is a new...

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    On the contrary: the Silk Road to Europe runs right through Turkey; this route is of extreme strategic importance to China—there is no alternative; it is, in effect, a matter of China’s very survival. The route through Russia to Europe will be blocked for the next few decades, and the sea route...

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    I know is Crazy but…. I’ve been thinking about this the whole time… what if MSB AR-GE had received a direct technology transfer from China, and we were talking about a Fork of the WS-10 Engine? The F-110 and WS-10 engines are based on the CFM56 and GE F101 cores. China had access to the CFM56...

    TR Missile & Smart Munition Programs

    It cannot be ruled out, but it is very, very unlikely that Ukraine, with its current engineers, still possesses intercontinental ballistic missile technology from the USSR, such as the “Satan I,” and if it does… For several years now, the U.S. and Europe have been supporting Ukraine with money...

    Please use your brain for a second. Let’s say you’re right—why are we then begging for planes like the Eurofighter as a stopgap until the TAI KAAN… when a new engine is practically ready and has already been unveiled in the Ministry of Defense’s drawer? You’ll see—it doesn’t make any sense...

    TR Propulsion Systems

    As I’ve already mentioned, this engine doesn’t make sense; the thrust (lbf) of this engine and that of the TF 35000 are too close together, and the core of the TF 35000 still has room to grow to reach 38,000–39,000 lbf. So if this engine and the project are indeed real, I don’t see the point in...
