Exactly how long it will take to supply TuAF with a decent number of viable fighters,
2 per month.
If you don't want Eurofighter, stop trying to buy it.
These decisions are made by governments not ordinary citizens.
I would prefer UK not to supply it to a country heading for dictatorship.
Than write a letter to British government not to supply mass murderers like Netanyahu, if you have morality problems. And if you don’t like dictators, stop supplying Zelensky.

You don't want Turkiye to buy Eurofighter from UK. I don't want UK to sell Eurofighter to Turkiye. We agree about something.
Again, these decisions are not made by citizens.

There you go with your high horse again. Take a good look at what weapons UK have been selling to who throughout the years, Turkey, even with all its faults and problems right now, is no fucking worse than any of them. UK have been selling weapons to dictatorships for decades lad, weapons you sold have been used in ethnic cleansings and genocides. Stop trying to white wash UK and act like you're above us somehow, you're only coming off as supremacist doing that.

I rate democracy above dictatorship. I live in a society that holds democracy including the many freedoms it incorporates - among which freedom of expression - above dictatorship. Do you find that to be 'supremacist'?

Stay on topic please. Leave politics out. We can only cast our votes every 4th year.

Does anyone know if two seater Kaan will come?

Would be good to have a dedicated EW aircraft to escort other Kaan jets for SEAD missions.

There are difficulties with canopy and launch seat design, we adhered to F35 shape to keep it simple. Redesigning would be too major for now. What we should do is give Kaan ability to fly semi autonomous so pilots cognitive load will be reduced and they can focus on mission systems rather than flight and have their arms and hands free

I don't believe that a two-seater variant could exist either. At least according to the statements of Mr. Gorgun and Demiroglu, they leave no room for thought...
But, you know what?... In fact, if we think about it carefully, with the integration of AI in KAAN and with the pilot's smart helmet, then yes, we can say that
"it will be two-seater"... (y) :)

That's just an Autopilot.

I'm not sure theres any nation that gets away with as much as the French, even here in Canada they have a ridiculous leeway.

Who said we have difficulties with canopy and ejection seat design?
For flying semi autonomous, we have developed AI engine. That’s why we don’t need a second pilot.

That begs the question, why Kaan now and not KF-21 back then when Indonesia was a full partner?

So now people realize the importance of making Kaan at once rather than taking a long time; you've got to prove to the audience that you can make it so that they can join you rather than joining someone else.
