TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

Hmm, in this case, more than three prototypes may be produced for the TF6000. The engineer at the fair noted that afterburner is not an easy technology and that significant work has been done on it. Consequently, the TF10000's production schedule will likely take time.

If all goes well, the TF6000 is expected to be produced even sooner, as many prototypes have already been produced.

TF10000 is a different engine. It has to withstand the sudden jolt of the afterburner when it kicks in. Materials and parts used have to be different in places where it matters.
Prof Akşit had mentioned all this before.

The day Türkiye has Nukes with ICBMs and their own fighter jets should be the day that america gets kicked out of Türkiye. These bastards are anything but allies.

Here in this interview on Kaner’s channel, around 11:45 mark, Özgür Ekşi says that he once asked military technicians in Eskisehir if the F-110 engines in F-16s can be used in dual engine mode for Kaan and they answered they can easily make it work. It was sometimes said here this is not technically possible due to FADEC software and turning direction of the engines but it seems to be technically very feasible. Other obvious problems like legal licensing and F-16 availability notwithstanding of course.

If enough time and energy is spent on conversion they can be used.
But remember that KAAN’s motor connections to body and F16’s are in totally different positions. You can’t just swap. Also FADEC as you mentioned needs to be programmed to suit a twin engined performance. FADEC (Full Authority Digital Engine/Electronics Control) controls the engine‘s air and fuel mix, controls pilot’s inputs and makes sure engines work in optimum and most efficient manner during flight when the plane undertakes difficult manoeuvres. These changes from plane to plane a hell of a lot. So specific sensors for specific planes sends info to FADEC. And FADEC to makes sure the engine performs as it is required from it.

Rotation direction is wrong info. All f110 engines rotate in counterclockwise when look at it from the front, as all GE and P&W engines do ; be it single or twin engined. Yet most RR engines rotate in clockwise direction. That includes the EJ200 on Typhoon.

Legal issue is also a point.
