I would love to see our air force have Hürjets forming an aggressor squadron with some adversary-looking paint jobs.

Version used in T70 might not be enough, but T700 have higher (2500) shp versions. I don't think Motor Sich is a reliable supplier atm
Also similar weight class apache uses 2000hp version of t700. I think, Calling not enough is not make any sense.

so it is locally developed , because i've heard that MURAD is used within the F-16 and the Akinci , any specs ?
Ahmet Akyol, Head of the Electronic Warfare and Radar Systems Department of the Presidency of Defense Industries, stated that the indigenous AESA nose radar would be better than the APG-83 radar on the F-16 Viper.

no way , the APG-83 SABR is between 300-400 km in range , impossible for Turkey to accomplish a range beyond the american one , maybe better in other specs like the processing power or the transmission power , probably for propaganda purposes , the company itself said that it can compete with the APG -83 , not exceed it

The GaN modules of MURAD AESA radar can absorb more power than the GaAs modules of APG-83. It's totally plausible that its better than its American counterpart.

well , if what you say is true , congratulations , but a question please : the APG-83 , does it use a GaN or GaA semiconductore ?

Actually there is very good chance Aselsan’s MURAD is better than APG 83.
APG 83 is GAs based while on the other hand MURAD is GaN based.
And also APG 83 got cooling limitation but MURAD doesn't.

APG 83 has 300/400km range?! Did you took that number from wiki?
here is an realistic estimation of APG 83s range against 1m RCS target.

Why would he lie about something like that? We are talking about a company that was founded in 1975 and entered the aesa business in 2003 with the Kalkan aesa radar. Kalkan 2, Çafrad, Eirs, STP, Cenk-S, Hazar, Aura, Murad etc. It is a company that has produced ongoing aesa radars.
