I congratulate the makers of the engine too, good job, keep up the good work.

 

[Zafer]

May be they will be using other engines but definitely not Ukraine engine. Ukraine no longer has the ability to produce engines.W

We don't know that and Baykar must have already stocked a number of engines.

Ethem... I'd say something that rhymes with that traitor's name. But I'll refrain.

Ethem is a pawn, the real criminals are those who gave him the way.

At that time, Ethem Sancak even defrauded the Qataris. Lol

Great news ! Finally a first firing of our first turbofan.
Congratulation to all that had a a hand in it.
As per Dr Akşit's previous statements, this engine probably has a lot less thrust than the aimed 6000lbf in dry thrust. It will take time to develop it in to a 6000lbf engine that can fly an air platform. But luckily we have gone through the motions with TS-1400 and as it is not going to propel a plane that will be entrusted with human life, it should be quicker to see the fruits of this endeavour.

A big thumbs up to TEI!

Qataris fed up with Ethem and removed him from the Turkish defense industry. Qataris directly petitioned Erdoğan to remove Ethem from the equation. Ethem was invincible but he made a big mistake and bamboozled Qataris. Erdoğan called Tosyalı and told him to takeover BMC and BMCPower. TAI bought TRMotor.

TF6000 First run!

Congrats. The team involved have every right to be mightily pleased.

Does Turkiye have a flying test bed planned?

Now officially we are a new member of another elite club Turbofan engine manufacturing nations

USA
UK
France
Russia
China
Ukraine
Turkiye

Add:

Canada
Germany
India
Japan

Going by just manufacturing alone, the list increases more actually given licensed production.

In one of his posts, @Windchime mentioned that SK has started testing their 5.5k lbf turbofan engine, iirc.

Yes South Korea and Brazil are progressing here. They both want a domestic engine in this class for UAVs and small aircraft....that will serve to take things to next tiers just like Turkiye envisages too. India has its HTFE-25 engine in this class as well for same purpose.

Iran program here exists but is very opaque as always.

A second-hand Bombardier business jet was purchased to test Kaan's optics suite and BURFIS. If needed, this engine can be integrated into that aircraft and tested.

But I don't think this will be necessary. I think TF-6000/10000 engine can be integrated directly into KE&Anka-3 drones and tested that way.

Kızılelma has been flying the longest and is probably the longest along towards maturing. Considering Turkish makers' risk averse approach it should be Kızılelma taking the risk of an accident from flying with an unproven engine but also moving in development first.

and dude dont forget Iran

how lucky we are world is full of turbofan manufacturers we had at least 15 options for Hürjet KAAN ANKA 3 Kızılelma

likewise, we are no alternative to anyone at this stage. we need at least a few years(actual delivery) to be included in the list.

 

[Zafer]

I am guessing we may see TF6 on Kızılelma in less than 18 months.

I hope so, in other way we rely on ukrainian Engines. When I see how long it took from first Test till tobserial Production for TS-1400, I become feel bad.

Kizilelma hasn't been flying for quite a long time. Baykar has confirmed this as well.

How about twin-engined Kizilelma that can be used as motor test - bed? One reliable engine, one test engine.

Possible. Baykar were already planning a twin-engine version of KE.
