Defence Fair SAHA EXPO 2026

We will have to wait for the industry professionals to comment on it.

True. We even don’t know what we got here.

 

[Zafer]

True but this engine has an afterburner which would classify it as a fighter engine. A gas turbine for naval ships are usually deprived from civilian engines because of the time of usage

Ship engines only use the core of the engine they are derived from.

Stop doubting so much guys, have some faith...

465 inches equals 11.8 meters. Has a turbofan with a 12-meter diameter been made? What are the 4 rocket engines in the turbofan engine for? The F-35's engine produces 43,000 lbf with afterburner; in that case, has an equivalent F135 engine been made?

 

[boredaf]

You wouldnt expect that from a Turkish state institution,we are not Iran.

Mate, which one of the thousand false statements and over-promises do you want me to quote here?

Maybe but if the intention is propaganda they would just build bigger bombs and missiles. Some of the stuff is actually useful and an IRBM would not be an economical choice but would bolster our deterrence if it is precise but not as a mono block missile with one warhead.

Sure, but does that mean they can actually do them? Especially in a timeframe that is relevant? Casually dropping specs and a mock up for a jet engine doesn't scream "propaganda" to you?

3 tons of explosive for YILDIRIMHAN

465 in seems like a typo while 46,5 in is 118 cm which is a legit value for such an engine.

And I loved this one, of all products at the expo

Bro 465 was a typo let’s say. How about four rockets.
usta nerden tutsan elinde kalıyor.
I am finding hard to take this seriously tbh.

Such rockets are made by bundling several smaller rocket engines, SpaceX's Starship has 33 Raptor engines. This is normal.

We were talking about Güçhan, 42.000 lb turbofan engine, yes?

No, the Yıldırımhan rocket.

What is with the Güçkan, I may have overlooked.

Dude you replied my Güçhan turbofan engine post from X, not Yıldırımhan ICBM

So, they had fuck ton of time to prepare a some mock-ups and info sheets and they couldn't even get those right? Fucking hell, clowns the lot of them.

 

[Yasar_TR]

I am lost for words.
I was feeling ashamed about the Yildirimhan being a propaganda piece; now Guchan???
What on earth they have been smoking?

Unless it has TEI and TRMotor signature under it, forget it. It is a joke!

Normally there are no roket thrusters in a turbine engine unless it is a hybrid engine or thrusters are used in place of a starter turbine engine to give the initial turn to the main engine. Some engines like rotating detonation engines need to have reached some tresholds speeds to start, so an experimental hybrid engine maybe in question likes of which appear in some novalty projects around the world.

I will not personally let this gaff (an embarrassment tbh) ruin my expo fun. I’ll leave it behind me and enjoy the expo just the same.

These are not the products you’re looking for, move along

I don't know why exists a maker like the MSB Arge as there already are government companies tasked to do every bit of work they want to do.

I believe we should look at this from a wider angle, not only as an embarrassing gaff of propaganda.
This looks more of show of military muscle as a political tool for some certain actors.
