KAAN - Such a great name! ​

Kaan = Kagan = ruler, emperor

Damn.... that is nice
TF-23 Emperor, huh

I must admit, they chose a good name at the end, thank god

 

[Angry Turk !!!]

The Name is great, good job.

If there are other products we have with that name, then those should be changed. Only our Jet should have it.

Kaan means " KHAN " eternal ruler, the highest military rank that comes from KAN (Blood) that simply means blessed blood.
It's old Turkic words that has multiple versions.

Khan, HAN, Hakan, Kagan, Kan is identical meaning.

Congratulations Turkey. KAAN is best name. We pashton people use KHAN with our name.

Its actually a really good name, from all the things i saw being thrown about i actually had really low expectations for how it would be named. But in the end they gave it a good name which i dont think too many people will be against.

Kaan means khagan, not khan. Khagan means khan of khans.
Khan(Han)= King level ruler
Khagan (Kaan, Hakan, Kağan)= Khan of Khans emperor level ruler.

We pashton people use khan as surname like Ahmad khan

 

[dBSPL]

He concluded his speech by saying 'I call this day, İstikbal!. They almost named this aircraft as Istikbal. However, Bahçeli changed the name of the aircraft. It is something I can never prove, but no one can convince me otherwise. lol.

I want to see it on international airshows,appearing as last to show the ''little'' ones who is boss.
''And finally we see the KAAN/KHAGAN/KHAN''(the name says enough,no need to name the origin).

 

[BalkanTurk90]

Tf 23 KAAN or only KAAN ?
Better if its with tf23 . like f22 Raptor but all says only f22 .

PROPPER TURKIC ORIGIN NAME!​

 

[demir283]

Kaan means khagan, not khan. Khagan means khan of khans.
Khan(Han)= King level ruler
Khagan (Kaan, Hakan, Kağan)= Khan of Khans emperor level ruler.

No. it means same. But it was created different era of turkic language / mongol language that gets extra meaning. it all originated from ḳaġan/χaġan/χān.. Similar like

Timur/tegi / temir/ demir/ teymour/ etc etc.
