TR Attack & Utility Helicopter Programs

[Kartal1]

We also have the confirmation that the ATAK-2 is currently frozen, in priority to the Gokbey and the T925 Utility helicopter. But there’s nothing about the current status of Gokbeys in the article. When will they be delivered ?

At least there will be many commonalities between ATAK 2 and T-925 so we are still going to use the gained experience.

 

[TheInsider]

Helicopters are ready to be delivered tomorrow but there won't be any delivery of Gokbeys without the required EASA certification.

 

[Saithan]

So the question is how is it going with the EASA certification....

Do we know where we're lacking with regards to passing the certification ?

We are lacking nowhere it takes time. Let's assume TAI needs to do 100 tests and EASA can only send experts for 2 tests per month. It will take 50 months.

Does this one have TS-1400 or nah?

"nah"

 

[Saithan]

Still a pretty nice performance.

I do hope we'll see the domestic TS1400 versions very soon. Like yesterday would have been a good time....

TS1400 is all good and well, but better news would be delivering the first T625s on August 1..

I'm beginning to think our army will get their 1st batch production Altay's before gendarme get their Gökbey

Who we value more, tankers with their M48s or pilots with their Hueys...

No helicopter will be delivered before the EASA certificate is officially awarded which is likely to happen in August but it is not certain.

 

[Sanchez]

Certificates are good things, but Turkey doesn't need an EASA certificate to deliver a Turkish helicopter to a Turkish government agency.

 

[godel44]

TUSAS general manager said in the interview yesterday that the first Gokbey helicopters will be delivered to Gendarmerie in August.

Unless those choppers will also be used in civilian tasks(FYI they will be)
If a helicopter without a civilian certification crashes when used for civilian tasks, you can sue responsible parties.

No ,TS-1400 tests are not finished yet,on the gökbey heli.

 

[Oublious]

First delivery Gokbey will be Gendarmery 30 August, total 26 will be deliverd to instutions and after that second contract talks with SSB.

Military certification would not be so long.

T925 design changed,project management of Tusaş is not good,everyone accept for hürkuş design change is a common for a institution that did not made any aircraft before,but years after gökbey they should not make a mistake second to hürkuş,I can guess most of the problems comes from our military but tusaş is also making mistakes.
