Why is TF10000 on the list? When was claimed that it would be fired in 2023?

Edit: I asked this to a TEI engineer at TEKNOFEST and no TF10000 happening this year.

Global Fire Power list is useless. no need to pay attention to that.

Updated for 2023. Anyone willing to make a similar list for 2024.
Why wouldn't you do it again?

This one was so neat and concise.

If you're willing to do it, I'll start you off:

- First flight of KAAN
- TB-3 Weapon test
- Anka-3 Weapon test
- Kizilelma Weapon test
- Hurjet weapon test
- Milden test construction launch
- First manned space mission
- Some of the delayed projects in this list...


I'm sure the brothers here will fill you in as it goes.
