Look at that perfect production quality

This is a huge aircraft. No wonder they are aiming for a couple of 35000lbf class engines!
Without engines, those engine housings look even bigger than they really are. We know that around 120cm diameter engines are going in those holes.
There is still a lot of work to be done. No complacency because we have the physical plane now! In fact this should make us more determined to fill those two holes with two indigenous engines as quickly as possible.

Let me quote a few notes from our engineer friend from TAI.

- It is unclear whether IRST will be included in ground tests.
- Except for the exoskeleton (inner systems-radar-sensors-avionics) there is nothing in common between the first prototype you see now and the final prototype that will fly in 2025. You see only a "shell" at the moment.
So this prototype is not going to fly? So we can expect some more changes after completion of CDR.

Hey @MADDOG, there is another place in front of this one. Is it for parallel production, like two different ones at the same time? Or is there a third one behind it?

You know what pisses me off is how some people want this project to fail.

Congrats to all the engineers who are working day and night for their dreams to be a reality.

Cant wait to see this plane take it to the skies.

it is actually pretty good for a prototype right?

I don't see a point where they can complain 🙃
Political Islamists are looking for a place to fight, because they feed on conflicts and divisions. If there are complaints about TF-X, know that he is a troll ;)

Edit= Because in the comments, I see the jokes of reference, conflict and sculpture.

We don't want to see this kind of nonsense on such a beautiful day.
