The progress and what we saw so far looks really promising and i cant wait to see the first take off yet i am a little bit concerned about the pace of the project.
They are rushing it too much imo, pushing the engineers to their limits is a dangerous game that could have bad consequences and all this for a uneccesarily fast schedule.
Some argue with urgency of the project but rushing it makes no sense for two reasons:
-There is no imadiate threat of war where we would need a 5th gen fighter.
-The only adversaries where we need 5th gen fighters would be from western sphere.
Now you will ask why it makes no sense to rush it if lets say Greece has better fighters in forseeable future, well the first engines will be American made which means these will get sanctioned imadiately in case of a war with Greece or any other western country.
Rushing the Prototype this much just bears unnecessary risks as long as there is no national engine for the plane, i would prefer a more relaxed schedule where the engineers have enough time to figure out problems and fix them instead of being in rush and overlook them.
I really hope thats the case.I agree with "the pushing the engineers to their limits is a dangerous game" this.
But I got feeling from recent videos from Mr.Kotil and others. That is other way around "Our engineers have motivation (I think there are people which are so proud with big hearts + skills + knowledge + Will ) which drives to push it".
It is hard work which really show that they DOING IT. You can NOT stop it
That's the case.I really hope thats the case.
We're talking about Lockheed Martin a behemoth in aviation heading a consortium of giants including Northrop Grumman and BAE Systems on one hand,JSF program was in 24 months 2 flying prototype, so Tfx is not impossible.
We're talking about Lockheed Martin a behemoth in aviation heading a consortium of giants including Northrop Grumman and BAE Systems on one hand,
and Turkish Aerospace, a company which has never built a fighter before and just recently started to fly its own UAVs and propeller trainer prototypes on the other.
It's not impossible but if TAI pulls this off, it will be a 1000 times more impressive than the JSF.
Read my post again.Thats not correct, TFX started in 2018 why would it not possible? If LM can do it in 2 years why would we not able to make it in 5 years? We have the knowhow, you can not compare things of 20 years ago with now.
If that was the logic, Vietnam would have become a world power after war. Emotions don't make up anything. No amount of sweat or emotions can do anything.I agree with "the pushing the engineers to their limits is a dangerous game" this.

Emotions are added on top of the total budget+ R&D+ experience to squeze time.If that was the logic, Vietnam would have become a world power after war. Emotions don't make up anything. No amount of sweat or emotions can do anything.
Total budget, R&D, experience matter
Exactly!Emotions are added on top of the total budget+ R&D+ experience to squeze time.
@TUSAS_TR
Industry Development Chief Emrah Ekri: "The first prototype production of the MMU has been completed. We will take it out of the hangar on March 18 and start the engine. Later, we aim to gradually develop 7 more prototypes and enter them into the TSK inventory in 2030."
For election propaganda.Eh, it’s better to take it out right now instead of waiting 2 months for nothing.
I would assume the ejection seat to be present during rollout.Hey, @MADDOG do you know anything about the ejection seat of MMU for the time of roll-out? TUSAŞ said that they sent the cockpit model to Martin-Baker, and obviously, they will make some tests there. So, will there be an ejection seat, or is there something else just for roll-out?
This opens up the possibility of the plane to accidentally take off after roll outI would assume the ejection seat to be present during rollout.
