Is this TS1400 that measured as a 1600HP engine on tests? I thought it was already delivered to be tried on Gokbey!Kotil stated that the first delivery of Turkey's first helicopter engine with 1600 horsepower developed by TEI is expected to be made by the end of 2024 or the beginning of 2025.

Or is there another one?
License is needed for civilian usage right? Are the helicopters to be delivered this year using honeywell engine?No, it is the same TS-1400 engine. Kotil talks about the completion of the certification process as he is the producer of the helicopter. Until the certification process finishes that engine will always stay as a prototype as no aircraft can fly with an engine without a license. 2024 date was mentioned here before.
What is needed is certification which means the engine complies with the requirements of aviation industry's accepted standards. Durable and reliable.License is needed for civilian usage right? Are the helicopters to be delivered this year using honeywell engine?
I did mean certificate. But for instance, military use does not need the certificate rightWhat is needed is certification which means the engine complies with the requirements of aviation industry's accepted standards. Durable and reliable.
Depends on the user, if it is your own military operating in your own jurisdiction then you may not require certification or you may require the certification that your national certification body requires which will be valid in nations that recognize your certification body decisions.I did mean certificate. But for instance, military use does not need the certificate right
You need to write English summary for these. There are many non Turkish speakers that follow these threads.
@Crab , are you sure about CTS800 engines being built at TEI?
As far as I remember it was thought to be produced under license at TEI. But it never materialised. They are purchased from Honeywell USA.
Correct! TEI builds the low pressure turbine modules for this engine under the agreement made with Honeywell.I believe TEI builds parts for LHTEC
I remember that Mr Aksit mentioned long time ago in an interview that ts1400 is capable of generating 1600shp for a short period of time under emergency conditions.Is this TS1400 that measured as a 1600HP engine on tests? I thought it was already delivered to be tried on Gokbey!
