I created these images and posted them on Reddit before deleting them. The first one is a comparison of the F-22 and Kaan from a similar angle (though the Kaan photo was taken closer to the camera). The second is a comparison between the Su-57 and Kaan. Both are unofficial technical drawings that I rescaled so that 1 pixel equals 1 cm. I deleted them from Reddit because I didn’t like the stupid gatekeeping of retarded Westerners on Reddit so I deleted in there, but I also don’t want these images to just sit idle on my computer.

Turkey and Spain are in advanced talks over a potential military aircraft exchange. The deal, valued at approximately $793 million, could see Turkey acquiring six Airbus A400M military transport jets from Spain in exchange for 24 Turkey’s domestically produced Hürjet training aircraft. This negotiation bears similarities to Spain’s previous attempts to offload its A400M aircraft. In 2019, Spain approached South Korea with a proposal to swap some of its A400Ms for KT-1 and T-50 trainer jets produced by Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI). That deal, which didn’t materialize, would have marked South Korea’s first aircraft export to Europe. However, KAI later found success in exporting the T-50 derived FA-50 to Poland.

Air Force Commander Air General Ziya Cemal Kadıoğlu visited Qatar following the permanent deployment of the newly established Air Component Command within the Qatar Turkish Combined Joint Force Command. General Kadıoğlu made the first flight with Qatar Air Force Commander Major General Jassim Mohammed Ahmad Al-Mannai.

A reciprocal squadron consisting of similar number of Rafale planes should be (if not already there) in Turkiye.


A set up of 250 Qatari personnel with a number of Qatari airforce planes (12 Rafale and 8 Mirage 2000) was already put in place in Türkiye for ”training” purposes in 2022 for a period of 5 years.
But this is a point beyond that. It is a move to physically support to defend each other’s air space.

As Yaşar Üstad said, Turkish-Qatari Joint air element command and permanent air base in Qatar is not the first step in the coordination of air forces and training support provided by the Turkish air force. In the public discourse, especially in the social media, the situation is interpreted in a slightly distorted way. These coordination activities and joint commands promise significant tactical gains for the Turkish Air Force too. Especially in terms of the platforms and systems that the Qatari air force has.
