Are there any signs that TR6000 is nearing its first run?

Yes there are.

Technically, developing a bigger turbofan engine out of a smaller one is not a simple task and goes beyond just "enlarging" the parts. The process requires complex engineering, design, and testing.

Firstly, turbofan engines are complex machinery built to very precise specifications, and their performance depends heavily on their design and dimensions. A small increase in size could greatly affect their operation, possibly leading to decreased efficiency, overheating, or mechanical failure.

Secondly, the materials used in turbofan engines are chosen for their specific properties at particular sizes. If you were to simply scale up every part of the engine, these materials may not have the desired properties at the larger size. The strength, weight, and heat-resistance of the materials could all change in ways that are difficult to predict.

Lastly, many aspects of the engine's operation, such as the flow of air and fuel, the combustion process, and the way the engine is cooled, would all change if the engine were scaled up. These changes would require complex adjustments to the engine's design and operation.

In conclusion, while it is theoretically possible, it would require extensive research, development, and testing which could be very time-consuming and costly. You would almost be building a new engine from scratch, rather than "developing" a bigger engine out of a smaller one. Thus, it would be better to either modify the existing engine to increase its efficiency and power output or design a new larger engine from the ground up.

So this means that TF-35000 will be very likely not based on TF-6000.
TF-6000 is only seen as a step towards TF-35000 by TEI.
TRMOTOR is working on TF-35000 for several years now.
Are you saying that the engineers at TRMOTOR have no know-how?

No. Developing TF-6000 is directly tied to the TF-35000. It is like before producing a big UAV you produce a smaller model and test your technology on that model to save money and time.

Yes, every nation on earth has its own developed 1500hp tank engine and BMC Power had a ton of experience before developing the BATU power pack.

Equating a diesel engine with jet engine even as an example is just disingenuous. You keep doing that though, whatever makes you happy.

And the officials telling that the domestic engines of KAAN will be ready like by 2030, are just stupid or selling just dreams for votes?

We'll see in 4 to 6 years, as they keep saying 2028, won't we? Wouldn't be the first time for our officials to overpromise and underdeliver. You believe whatever you want mate, I can't blindly believe in things.

Oh, wait...

It's been 5-6 years since the first TS1400 engine was first firing and it is still not in mass production.

It takes more than 2 years just to test the engine in the air.

Very big news!!

Happy engine start day!

So exciting news!

Türkiye's first Turbofan engine being run for the very first time! One small engine, but hopefully it will pave the way for a giant leap in gas turbine technology. Congrats to SSB & TEI. Keep going. Don't stop!

Eyooo x 2! (My first "eyooo" was Kaan)

Next my "eyooo" will be Murad AESA radar. Then Batu Power Pack.

Congratulations on the first ignition of Turkey's national TEI-TF6000 engine

Sadly, I was in University so I couldnt react faster

TF6000 was always touted as an engine for the UCAVs. Per Erdogan's remarks from last year, we know that TF6000 will be in production in 5 years. We managed the hard, now harder part starts.

Japan cannot be left out.

definitly Japan cannot be left out yet seems that they are infavour of a safer path

Who is anyone to say anything about what a private company will do other than their sole owners. Baykar never said they will use the TF6000. It takes 5 years to make an engine but it already took several of those years.

Who is anyone to say anything about what a private company will do other than their sole owners. Baykar never said they will use the TF6000. It takes 5 years to make an engine but it already took several of those years.

"Mahmut Akşit said, "It takes 8-10 years to build such an engine. We started our work with the TJ300 and have now reached this level. The TF6000 was designed for Baykar's Combat Unmanned Aircraft System (MIUS). With its engine propulsion power, it has the capacity to fly the first model of MIUS at subsonic speed."
From 2022.

Baykar can choose to use TF6000 or not, but TF6000 was made for KE and other KE sized aircraft.
