Okay i was right for not trusting it, should i just delete it? I got hyped for no reason man.

The main limitation with Hurjet is it's engine, you can't sell it to anyone outside of US allies, and there is no program or even any slight talk or hint about a domestic engine for Hurjet(at least not yet) so even if it has the possibility of selling like hot cakes, Turkey won't be able to sell it as hot cakes for the reason i mentioned.

Which is really weird, Hurjet is already finished and will become a mature program much sooner than Kaan, i wonder why they don't consider a domestic engine for it?

T-7A, IMO. I expect that will be the default supersonic trainer choice for nearly all countries, leaving a small number of sales for Hurjet worldwide.

Still far behind schedule isn't it?

Yes, but production models should start being delivered in 2026 according to this report from February 2024 :

Boeing pushes back T-7 plans due to faulty parts

Boeing said the companies that produced the parts with quality problems acted quickly to fix them, and it is moving to finish building the final test jets.

To develop an engine for Hurjet would, I guess, take 5+ years. By then T-7A will be in mass production. How many Hurjet (including light fighter version) could TAI expect to sell? How many engines could a Turkish developer expect to sell?

To be totally honest Hurjet doesn't need to be successful in exports, being able to export it is always a nice bonus but the current goal is to become as self sufficient as possible, and we won't be able to achieve that without mastering jet engine production.

There's no engine project for Hürjet. And I doubt there'll be one in the next or two decades. TF35000 is all that matters. If that is a success, then embargoing us with engines would make no sense.

I know, the topic was about export potential, which is not possible withour your own domestic engine.

Why is it not possible? Many other aircrafts that use f404 is exported by countries other than the US.

 

[Sanchez]

which is not possible withour your own domestic engine

How come?

 

[Zoth]

How come?

ITAR? Out of everyone which US will allow us to sell it(allies) how many of them will prefer Hurjet over the American or Italian one when we can't offer it with a domestically produced engine?

This beautiful bird has more export potential outside of NATO, atleast that's what i think.

Basically, what i mean is that, out of everyone that USA will allow us to sell Hurjet with f404 engines, how many of them will opt out of buying Hurjet?

@hugh also reply for you too, writing on mobile right now, i don't know how to add another quote while editing.

First time I heard the second prototype. How many prototypes was built for TS1400? If I recall correctly, It might be 6.

I hope we will have some good news soon about this.

I remember hearing 8 times rebuilt / redesigned in interview

ARAT is coming.

 

[zio]

Arat project is not only a turbojet engine project,bu to gain higher compressed air for cumbustion for more power with improved fuel burning efficiency.I think ideal compression ratio of air is around 1:15-17.

Arat is Turbo Fan engine, it will be used on UAV.

I dont know whats next, but it looks like they got the same editors as Turkish channels for their telenovela teasers.

Arat is not turbofan and likely will not be used on uav

 

[2033]

ARAT will be the engine of the GEZGİN cruise missile

I bet arat will be 4200 newton
