UAE is an enemy that attacked Turkish personal recently.If they can't get F-35's in this Trump administration, they will undoubtedly look for another 5th gen fighter.

They are doing what they are doing under cover. It is better them than someone else; we can deal with them better than we can deal with a high tech player.Sudan is not the only place we've come face to face. Still governments keep accelerating the cooperation. I don't question our relations with UAE. Not anymore. They can.. just buy... don't question.
They used Cirits to attack Turkish proxies in Libya and Roketsan supplied MLRS in Sudan. When they need it, they will.They won't use Kaan to attach Turkish forces

Allegedly. US deals are a bit more complex.Turkey signed an actual deal with the US to buy F-16B70 and nothing has become of it so far.
TBF the F16 Deal stalling is more on us than the americans. If we wanted the deal would be finalized tomorrow.Turkey signed an actual deal with the US to buy F-16B70 and nothing has become of it so far. I would expect even less from a MOU for an aircraft that is still in its development phase.
Both are MoUs, which are again statements of interest, none of it are legally binding contracts. There's no payment for the aircraft, there's no official documentation.
Best of luck to us all.
The „problem“ will not be the quality, but maybe the price.KAAN will be the backbone and the Future of Turkish Air force. No need for big words but I dont think we will face much difficulty in finding satisfactory amount of customers. Another advantage will be Unlike most 5 gens, KAAN will be a progressive platform i.e KAAN will develope gradually and in stages.

KAAN'ın Radarı ASELSAN MURAD-600'de Son Durum | SavunmaSanayiST
ASELSAN Genel Müdürü Ahmet Akyol, KAAN savaş uçağı için geliştirilen MURAD-600 Radar Sistemi'nde gelinen son aşamaya değindi.www.savunmasanayist.com
TF6000 won't be ready for a 2 or 3 more years. You can't just rush ground and aerial testing of an engine and put it into serial production. As far as proper testing go, TF6000 has just began a very long road AND the same road will have to be walked again with TF10000.That means Kizilelma and anka real serial production will have them next year together with tf6000
South Korea and Jakarta have reached an agreement to reboot their cooperation in the KF-21 fighter programme, as the Southeast Asian nation downplays the firmness of an agreement to obtain 48 Turkish Aerospace (TAI) Kaan fighters.
According to Seoul’s Defense Acquisition Program Administration, officials from both countries have confirmed an arrangement that sharply reduces Jakarta’s financial commitment in the programme.
Who don’t trust Indonesia?I said it here yesterday or the day before and I say it again: beware dealing with Indonesia. Indonesia cannot be trusted.
