They made sure to check the "usual suspects" who were thought to be able to spy during the hours when the fighterjet took off.Holy moly, I didn't notice. So, they were confident there were no spying chance nearby.
Typical procedure of all flying vehicles.
Westoids never disappoint. Nemçe kölesi, dayanır mı zülfikâre kellesi?
- Foreign engines
- It's not 5th gen
- Stolen technology
- F-22 from wish dot com
- F-35 at home
- No mass production bcoz economy
- Specs are inflated
- It's propaganda
Exams.Didnt see @Bürküt also.
Yeah Russians know we will sell it to Ukraine .You talk about Westoids but I have seen what they say about it on Russian channels too... 99% of them are very negative and skeptical and of course anti- Turkish in their comments.
I write this just to show that everywhere we turn we are surrounded by enemies. This is why this project is so important and we MUST succeed.
Congrats to everyone on this small but very important step.
Good but incomplete, Anka, Atak, Gökbey.
The main Russian military publication does not yet contain anything regarding KAAN. Complete silence.Westoids never disappoint. Nemçe kölesi, dayanır mı zülfikâre kellesi?

Luneberg lenses are not needed as there is no RAM on the aircraft. RCS of the geometry can be calculated with engineering simulation programs with a good enough result so there is nothing to hide at the moment.Yes for the first test flight, wheels all down. Wheels up is for next test flights....so we might see a luneberg lens then if its taking a longer circuit with more radar emission site possibility etc. I guess they will run it well inside interior near Ankara this time again anyway, so it might not be needed anyway, lets see.
BTW, anyone know when the next test flight is scheduled for right now?

If you are asking for RCS, this video is the only thing I can find talking about it.Did anybody do any sims on KAAN so far?
