If we produce 24 planes per year. How much will our forces get and how much our customers?

I read somewhere that the airforce plans are for 150 aircraft total and that the 24 planes pers year are for the beginning stages and are supposed to increase but that depends on international customers.
150 Turkey
(48) Indonesia

I read somewhere between 200-250. But this is not my point. If we produced the first 24, do we get all of them? Let’s say the second batch are on higher production rate by 36. Do we get all of them until we get the number we need or purchased?

I think they would take multiple orders for the same time period as TurAF once the urgent few fleets of TurAF are already delivered. It will depend on the urgency situation of the customers. TurAF will probably want to get newer planes as the planes mature and evolve with every production run.

All early KAAN's are for the Turkish Airforce,the export only starts after the indigenous engine is ready,not before.

I still think we relations on a high we should sit down with RR and ask for assistance on TF35000. I trust TEI but even if RR can help us speed up development by 10% it would translate to 1-2 years.

The faster we have working indigenous engines to power Kaan the faster we will gain independence in the skies.

TAI is already deepening its partnership with BAE. Would not surpise me if the path slowly leads to Tempest for TAI.

No one "really" helps when it comes to engines.

It is “Kırlıkovalı”

He is supposed to be the brains behind the stealth paint of B21 and F35.

Oh, yes. The person who developed the polymer coating for the US stealth planes.
