Seems when Malaysia bought the F18 with F404 engine they were unaware of the jets action capability being...
But considering Spanish experience with F18 wouldn't they be able to have an easier time optimizing Hürjets structure let's say an improvement and sturdiness of 1-2 tonnes overall. Or are perhaps going for something more out of the box like having Hürjet trainer with minimum addition be able to...
Seems that SNA is making progress despite the "ceasefire" that isn't being respected. Several places we East of Raqqa has changed to SNA hands and it seems PKK/YPG/SDF is being caught on 3 fronts.
I disagree with you on that. I know that if we acquire them for trainer then that's what we should do, but in an all out war or such, being able to turn those jets into LCA and more modern one is an asset that should not be under estimated. As it is our fighterjets are getting older and older.
Why would we not be able to use on LCA version of Hürjet ? I've said it before, if we can transform Hürjet to LCA without changing it's structure then it's best to build as many Hürjet as possible
It makes sense of you use engine from GE. At least there is no hyper over domestic engine for Hürjet, so it'd be perfect to continue with the trainer version and on the side develop it as LCA.
So what's delaying or who is delaying semi-mass production of Hürjet ? I'd say politics. I can't...
For the umptheenth time we'll see when we get there. Meanwhile since hürjet is flying and doing acrobatics etc. We should focus on semi-mass production of Hürjet and have a dedicated team for it. Better safe than sorry.
SNA impatient to liberated the areas. And this is what I am talking about.we can wait because it is not our land in the hands of PKK. But for the Syrians who can smell victory, denying them this or not moving out sooner will earn their ire.
If you hold a grenade in your hand and the pin is...
