TR HÜRJET-Advanced Jet Trainer/ Light attack aircraft

Why does a mock-up have functioning aerodynamic surfaces, I am 99.9% sure that this is the ground tests prototype. There is literally no need for building a new mock-up when you have a ground tests version

Nvm, the inlets are blocked and there are cardboard pieces. So yes, a mock-up

But why would they make another mock-up? Maybe for Malaysia?

Now they might not be functioning... They're most likely there for realism purposes. TAI probably went "we gotta update the mock-up, because there has been a design change". You can't have a mock-up that has a different design to the original aircraft that's under development. Look at how the engine intakes are covered. And just take a look at the canopy. There is a MASSIVE gap between it and the fuselage.

May I also ask where you found the image? Just curious. Did you take it yourself?

Yeah, I have stated those after my OG reply, well not the canopy. Maybe they wanted to show us the increased wing area that led to 5 tons of payload?

I know I know. Didn't see your reply that's all.

Regarding your question... This aircraft is competing. It's on a tender. TAI wants to export this bird to a lot of countries. So you're probably right. If you want to be transparent with your possible clients, this is one way to do it. Because you see, the OG mock-up has nothing to do with the one we are seeing right now. It almost looks like an entirely new plane. From this point onwards, TAI will probably exhibit this mock-up instead.

And just after the Image of the Second Mock-Up has surfaced, the Malaysian PM is visiting Türkiye.

Malaysian Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob will embark on a four-day official visit to Turkey beginning Tuesday (July 5), as both countries strive to strengthen their bilateral and economic ties, as well as cooperation in aerospace and defence industries.

During the visit, Ismail Sabri will be accompanied by

Foreign Minister Datuk Saifuddin Abdullah;
International Trade and Industry Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali;
Science, Technology and Innovation Minister Datuk Seri Dr Adham Baba;
Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Special Functions) Datuk Dr Abdul Latiff Ahmad;
Air Force Chief General Tan Sri Mohd Asghar Khan Goriman Khan,
as well as Chief of Army General Tan Sri Zamrose Mohd Zain.

Sazali said that on Wednesday (July 6), the premier will travel to the capital Ankara, where he is scheduled to visit the country’s two major players in defence and aerospace, respectively - MKE Corporation and Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI).

It has been awfully silent around Malaysian Trainer Aircraft Tender.
Hoping the best.

Probably the last comparison before choosing the LCA

As far as I know regarding the Malaysian offer, it had been narrowed to either Turkey or India. Malaysia can choose to gamble on Turkey and may (in the long run) obtain technology that they may have never thought of achieving or can just take the safe route with India' Tejas which isnt a bad offer per say

All in all, I think that this deal is messed up; I can relate that TAI wanna enter the market but to give away hard sought tech that easily is just wrong IMO! Even if Malaysia refused, Turkey can still find new buyers while preserving their tech for themselves

Engineering facility is now connected with the hangar which seems to be mostly complete. I'm astonished by TAI's construction speed ngl

Ah, yes.

Was that always in the plan or a new addition

Lieutenant General Hamad Muhammed Thani Al Rumaithi of the United Arab Emirates (who is also the Chief Of Staff) got up close and personal with Hurjet's new mock-up

That guy does not look happy or pleased but the deal is beneficial for his country, I hope they are smart enough to choose Turkiye

Might be because nobody can Pronounce his name "Dato' Sri Ismail Sabri bin Yaakob"

Jokes aside they are offering to pay half via Palm Oil. He better accept that deal.

 

[wolveray1]

Datok seri is a title.His name is ismail sabri bin yaakob.Mostly minister in malaysia have title like that.We just called him Ismail

Oh I've seen him laugh during his visit lol He was perhaps trying to grasp what he was being told.

Frankly,india have given a nice proposal too.They planned to open a maintenance center and spare parts too for SU30.We do have about 18 SU30 jets and spare parts are a problem now with regard to russian.
