İnci Project: Manufacturing capability domestically for the titanium alloy parts needed in air platforms through precision casting method.
Yakut Project: Project aims at acquisition of the Metal Powder Laser Melting (LAM) process as well as the process modeling capability for manufacturing of functional parts that have advanced mechanical features and can operate under challenging conditions such as high pressure and temperature differences in aircraft engines. Accordingly, under the project, the combustor component of the TJ90 turbojet engines, which consists of 9 sub-components, will be manufactured from UNS N06625 nickel super alloy material in one piece by using additive manufacturing method in a way to meet the mechanical requirements.

Through the know-how and experience to be gained with the YAKUT Project, it is aimed for TEI to become a main engine manufacturer that is capable of manufacturing parts by using additive manufacturing methods in its own engines in the long term.

The Dilek Project: backed up by the Undersecretariat for Defense Industries, is carried out by TAI and TEI in collaboration with the aim of developing superplastic forming process for titanium alloys which are used in both platform and engine applications in aviation industry, and as a result reducing dependence on foreign sources.
Müge Project: The purpose of program is to develop Magnesium Alloy Casting technology.

Dinç Project: 240t melting capacity aviation quality stainless steel and nickel-based alloys required to be used in aerospace platforms for the defense industry and civil purposes.

The Atom project: This program aims to develop nickel metal powder suitable for layered manufacturing for aerospace applications

The Elektron Project:
Development of a titanium layer process using the Electron Beam Melting (EBM) method.

The Ayna Project:
Development of new generation Aluminum alloy development

TEI’s TJ-300 Engine to Power Roketsan’s Medium Range Anti-Ship Guided Munition!

The TJ-300 Turbojet Engine, of which first ignition was realized at the Miniature Jet Engine Test Rig at TEI’s premises on June 19, 2020 with the participation of the Minister of Industry and Technology Mustafa VARANK, will power Turkey’s first Medium Range Anti-Ship Guided Munition (G/M). With a power output of 1.300N (around 400hp) the TJ-300 Turbojet Engine is able to reach Mach 0.9 at 5.000ft altitude and thanks to its compact design has an outer diameter of 240mm and weighs less than 30kg. According to TEI, the TJ-300 is the first turbojet engine able to generate a thrust of 1300N and weight less than 30kg. TEI has been working on the TJ-300 engine for the last 28 months.

Totally designed and developed locally with national means in cooperation with TUBITAK, TEI and Roketsan the TJ-300 engine is a single-shaft axial-flow type turbojet engine consisting of a 4-stage axial compressor and a fixed outlet nozzle. According to information disclosed during the ceremony the TJ-300 Turbojet Engine also has the capacity of powering a high-speed jet-powered UAV weighing 1.300kg.

On the other hand, TEI also carries out its activities on the more powerful TJ-400 Turbojet Engine, which according to our assessments will have a capacity of 1.500N, as confirmed in the images displayed during the video of the TJ-300 ignition ceremony. As also underlined by TEI Chairman and CEO Mahmut F. AKŞİT, five TJ-300 Turbojet Engines will be manufactured this year for testing purposes. These engines will be developed fully indigenously from the scratch by TEI engineers and without any foreign dependency. The TJ-300 Turbojet Engine was a surprise in the public opinion and ranked first rank on the news on social media as well as the mainstream media.

Following these developments, the focus was shifted towards the National Medium Range Anti-Ship G/M, which is under development at Roketsan facilities.

So, what is a Medium Range Anti-Ship G/M? Which capabilities will be acquired by the Turkish Naval Forces with this missile?

The Medium Range Anti-Ship Guided Munition Project has been launched for the replacement of the Penguin Mk2 Mod7 Anti-Ship Guided Munitions(G/M) in the inventory of Turkish Naval Forces, which are about to reach the end of their service life in 2020s, with a new generation and indigenously designed G/M in line with the demands of the end-user authority.

According to the image displayed in the background of the official delegation during the briefing in the ignition ceremony, the new Medium Range Anti-Ship G/M, which will be powered by the TJ-300 turbojet engine developed by TEI appears as a scaled version (approximately 50%) of ATMACA Anti-Ship G/M of Roketsan. The new Medium Range Anti-Ship G/M has a smaller diameter compared to ATMACA. This new missile features a booster and a foldable wing design, and the air intake of the turbojet engine is also mounted under the rear section of the fuselage (just behind the folding wings) similar to ATMACA.

According to the information relayed in the ceremony, the new Medium Range Anti-Ship G/M is 3.2m long and weighs 300kg. It is probably capable of reaching a range of around 100-150km depending launch speed and altitude.

A very large seeker head is mounted at the tip of the missile. This seeker perhaps features a “Dual Mode”. In addition to the IIR Seeker, an active RF Seeker (ATMACA B2) or Passive RF Seeker (AKBABA ARGM) or a Semi - Active Laser (SAL) Seeker may have been used.

Similar to ATMACA, the New Medium Range Anti-Ship Guided Munition will feature a two-way encrypted data link, INS/GPS and a Radar Altimeter. New Medium Range Anti-Ship G/M is expected to be deployed at air and surface platforms of the Naval Forces Command such as Helicopters, Maritime Patrol Aircraft and Fast Patrol Boats. The New Medium Range Anti-Ship G/M is expected to feature air-to-surface, air-to-ground, surface-to-surface and surface-to-ground firing capabilities. The new Medium Range Anti-Ship G/M will be replacing the Penguin Mk2 Mod 7 G/Ms in the inventory of the Naval Forces Command.

Some might want to know :)

How many of these engines have been fitted into vehicles and tested ?

How many of these engines are now in production ?

The source of information is the TEI manager and I don't suppose they will introduce each details of their efforts bro.

What’s missing is now that can power a Spear 3 equivalent (Kuzgun) or MALD equivalent (?) weapons. PS: Much smaller in size and for a missile weighs more or less than 100 kg.

I can't understand what you mean, the TS1400 in turboshaft mode on the left side, and the TS1400 core on the right. When you integrate a gearbox into the TS1400's power output section, you can already use it in tanks with a suitable FADEC configuration.

But wasn’t the core engine being developed for Airborne vehicles. Atak, gokbey, hurjet, mmu and such.

How can the same core engine be used for land vehicles ?
