(I'm leaving aside the nuclear attack capacity and carpet bombing capability.) In fact, I think Anka 3 etc. class aircraft are more effective bombers than B-2, B-21 etc. strategic bombers. 1- First of all, they are both stealth deep attack aircraft. So they serve the same purpose. They were...

No one is aware of it yet, but by making Anka 3, we actually made the F-117 Nighthawk. Or a small B-2 Spirit. Anka-3 will not resemble either TB-2, Akıncı, or Kızılelma. This aircraft will increase our firepower and strike capacity incredibly. Infiltrating deep into enemy lines unseen, Anka 3...

Ours is the only 5th generation fighter jet built under the eyes of the media all over the world. Of course, the elections in May also had an impact on this. But don't expect too much news and images (videos and photos) about KAAN anymore. From now on, the project will be carried out as it...

KAAN review by Chinese experts on China based CCTV television.

Temel Kotil: "Hopefully, we will start the rapid ground tests of KAAN in the first week of December. We plan to do the rejected takeoff tests in the 3rd week and fly in the 4th week. We have a timer counting down at TAI. When it shows the seconds, hopefully we will have flown. We turned on the...

The ejection seat is a tried and tested product. However, for each aircraft designed, the timing of the explosives, the angle of the skids relative to the canopy shape, etc. All of these need to be tried one on one. For example, in the video below, the canopy's explosives break the canopy, but...

I made some edits to the illustration with Photoshop. The result was as follows. (It will be dark in color due to the RAM coating. It will have formation lights on it. I also painted some markings on it.)

What is the latest situation in Hürjet's tests? Does anyone have information? (Has Hürjet ever made a supersonic flight? How many g rotations has it made? etc.)

A very good article on Kaan's RCS value written by Retired Air Pilot Major General Beyazıt Karataş and mechanical engineer Fazıl Altay. https://www.veryansintv.com/yazar/beyazit-karatas/kose-yazisi/turk-kartali-milli-muharip-ucak-1/

I have read many parts of the report. Some parts of the report consist of encyclopedic information. Some parts of the report give technical information about the engines. Some sections also provide information about companies and country regulations. In particular, I re-read the "executive...

Turkey's motto is: "If anyone can do anything, I can do it too." Maybe we'll make that engine a little late on our own. It will be a difficult process. But we'll build that engine eventually. Türkiye sought ways to cooperate with RR to shorten this process. Therefore, even if there is no RR...

The first reason that comes to my mind for this cooperation; this decision may be a "political" decision between countries rather than a "technical" one. As you know, at the moment we are connected to Ukraine in terms of engines (kızılelma, atak2, etc.), and they are connected to us in terms of...

Türkiye and Turks, Pakistan, Azerbaijan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Bagladesh etc. sees countries and peoples as brothers and friends to him. On the day that Türkiye and the Turks make the Kaan a 5th generation warplane, these countries will also have their 5th generation warplanes. No doubt about...

The pilot candidates in the photos are a lucky generation who will fly with their own country's fighter.

So what should we do, sit down and cry? Or should we drop everything and mourn? What do you want to say? And the most important question: What do you think we should do? What is your suggested solution?
