TR TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

Weather can be predicted 1 week, 10 days ago

Edit = I'm in Eskişehir now, despite the bad weather, F16 and training planes are flying over my head. Also, there are sounds from TEI that don't stop for hours most days, we're used to it now, I don't know what the sound is, but it gives me a headache. My place is 50 meters from TEI

Actually none of the official sources confirmed this date as far as I know, only some people on Twitter claimed that.

How naive are you. Is it easy for the people who made this news to do so many interviews and enter the factories? It can be postponed, of course, that's a separate issue.

Can you share an official source please?

Old model

The gap / space between two engines get wider in compare to the Mockup and renders, I wonder the reason behind it. Could it be that national engine could be larger or wider than the F110 in the future so they left space for it, or additional weapons bay between engines, or fuel tank space (probably not) or isolating engines to reduce heat or increasing structural strength, durability. Whatever the reason that is why it looks less like F22 and more like SU-35/57 etc. And more curvy than before, I hope it does not affect RCS.

No, such things don't really affect RCS, for example the YF-23 back then in the trials was more stealthy than the YF-22 (F-22), it also had a space between the engine, more curvy and was slightly bigger as well. The engine placement of TFX may look more like Su-57 if you compare both aircrafts belly you will see the difference.

"Canopy and Structural Composite parts for MMU successfully delivered."

Volo is responsible for the production of the canopy. This is an incredibly challenging task so well done to them.

Also a foreign engineering intern had stuff to say...

Canopy/windshield looks very plain. Americans using gold to make it stealthier. We should try that kind of innovative things while there's enough time.

Is that intern from BAE or a foreign national since this idiot just exposed himself as one of TAI employees; this means that other nations may try to find some sort of weakness to force him to spill some secrets of TAI


Really hope that he is from BAE

Thanks bro Kozan Selçuk said they use gold that's why I wrote that. I hope this won't be the final version of it.

That's makes no sense, he is a software engineer what are they gonna steal from him. Also he was working on a STL library he meaning that he had no access to the tf-x code, they just used the library that the department he was in created for tf-x.

Truly, thank God Turkey escaped from the F35 program
The number of screw-ups is just crazy mate; just imagining TuAF depending solely on the F35 and ppl will realise that it was a blessing from God that Turkey got kicked out of the F35 program in multiple ways

It's normal for new Fighter (that just quite recently start its operational service) to has some problems on it that need to be iron out.
TFX too, no guarantee it will be problem free later in its initial service.

Woow!

TF-X will fly in 2024! Entering service in 2028.

First flight 2024
Announcing that the first flight of the National Combat Aircraft will take place on 29 October 2024, Kotil said, "We will make the delivery in 2028. After 2028, we will produce two National Combat Aircraft per month, making 24 per year. If there is a need, this can increase exponentially. The landing gear of the National Combat Aircraft has arrived, as of the 20th of this month, the landing gear will be on the engines will be installed."

This is impossible! They said that ASELSAN could deliver the BURFIS radar to TAI only in 2026. They can't fly the plane without radar

I don't think that first flight will include BÜRFİS

They will do just that
