"A handful of R&D personnel are trying to produce"

But why, the ministry is not meant to be a manufacturing body.

No, the purpose of military factories and shipyards is production. I think you forgot that Asfat is affiliated with the Ministry of National Defense.

this one from Orko

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?

Who is saying this ?! 465 inch is jıst 46.5 inch , who made the infrographics made little error .
Same with 4 rocket engine which if u look at Yıldırimhan it have a 4 rocket engines but aomeone at graphic ussage made error and put it to turbofan engine

Normally not a big fan if Mete Yarar but his response was impressive.
He's also in disbelief about these superlative virgin births.

What do you mean who’s saying this? It was on the infographics.

 

[BalkanTurk90]

Who made infographics are not the same who made the products , they are separate perhaps different civilian small company that have 0 knowledge on military products , the ones who confuses the tank with self-propelled howitzers .
Why u wonder so much !

Okay, you lost me bro.

 

[boredaf]

No, the people who made the graphic are the same people who made the "engine" because 465 inch was quite literally written on the display in Saha Expo and could be seen on the photos. Sure, it is a typo, but it is utterly embarrassing because they had time to come up with these information cards themselves and still fucked it up.

And I've got a fucking bridge to sell anyone who believes in that engine. Slightly used but in a great location in Istanbul.

 

[fushkee]

There is no news about Gezgin?
I would be expecting that they were going to show a mock-up or something like that so far.

Its in our inventory long ago.

- No news about Gezgin

- No news about Cenk

- No demonstration about TF3500, even as a mock up level

and someone come out and say 6000 km of a missile and a 42.5k engine, for a country which does not possess nuclear warhead and has not produced turbofan engine. We will be able get there of course, but now?

Especially that engine. Who the one with a right mind can believe "with a handful people" can create such an engine? As Ziya Paşa says "Do you think the world is blind and the people is foolish?". With what right someone undermining our other companies' honest work at SAHA EXPO and affect negatively of credibility and reputation of our entire defence industry. What the hell is going on here?

I have never felt embarrased this much about our industry since the days of "erke dönergeci".

Well said, I have the exact same opinion as yours. MSB R&D are not to be taken serious according to some respectable members. But that shit show is still going to left a bad mark to the entire industry. Anyways, I hope we will get some good news about other stuff in the coming days / weeks.

It is embarrassing indeed

Let’s just cross our fingers and hope that this is not just a glimpse of future of our militray industry that we’ve nurturing for decades.

Proper Iran vibes. I don't understand why a country like Turkiye whose shown very real projects and successes would need to pull something like this. Doesnt make any sense.

Actually makes sense when you think about the past few weeks. Von der Layen blunder, Greece up the ante encouraged by EU and Israel, Israel systematically defaming Turkey and painting it as the next evil enemy of the West.
My guess, they, in a very amateurish fashion, staged this farce.

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.

And here’s some reaction from one certain actor
