TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

[_Mu_]

TAI has got their eye on Hurjet to be navalised going forward. This has been mentioned by several officials. As a trainer and especially as an acrobatic plane

Prof. Demir in Apr 2021 mentioned exactly that plan and he was even talking about TCG Anadolu

“We have been working on making changes in the design of Hürjet to operate on naval assets. We carried out several designs and made simulations. It has been seen that the design of its current form can evolve in this direction. The studies are also ongoing; the aim is to evolve Hürjet into a shipborne aircraft to operate it from TCG Anadolu.”
After this TAI Manager stated that TAI has been in talks with the Turkish Navy about operating Hürjet on LHD Anadolu, and they plan to make a protocol with the Turkish Navy to keep cooperation on this issues.
He also emphasized that the Hürjet can land and take off from a carrier and meet the operational needs of the Turkish Navy.
“Several systems would be integrated into the aircraft to make it adaptable with naval assets.” the aircraft program manager added.

Well, I guess I know what I'm doing with my day. Furiously refreshing multiple pages and then watching the video over and over again. Maybe with a little bit of moisturizer.

A delay of less than two month for such a milestone is nothing. Congrats to our engineers.

That must be a very, very deep kick in the balls for the Greeks in this video. I'm sure the Generals/Admirals of the Greek armed forces will be running with O legs for weeks.
And the asshole is already twitching

Together with F-16, you can see the size difference
