You can also upgrade the TAI KAAN platform to Gen 5.5+, which will enable you to keep pace with Gen 6+ in the long term.
Although the airframe would ultimately be the limiting factor, this isn’t a major issue, as the avionics, MUM-T and sensors, etc., would meet Gen 6 standards from 2040 onwards; therefore, it will still be able to keep up.

Never implied we were, just that perhaps we have some plans for it.
Financially we're not so bad as many try make out.
Its the natural process of things,after 5th you go for 6th then 7th etc.
First thing we need is the TF35k engine,without it we cant even talk about 5th gen.

I am hoping we're proactive after decades of just buying off the shelf.
20-years from now, I hope we're not asking to buy 6 Gen is all I ask for.
Have a feeling we won't so I am strangely optimistic.

The reason for developing and producing a 5th gen fighter and other modern platforms was to be independent from others.
Why would you think we would buy the next gen from others after being able to develop and produce our own 6th gen?
Does it make sense to you?
No need to hope we wont be asking anyone,they will ask us to sell.

What does it stop you to go further. I say we should go for 10th gen . Since we dont have “operational” modern fighter jet now and it seem we have at least 7-8 years away from it so I think we are free to tell about our dreams. Come on people. I know everyone has entitled to express his\her ideas but you have to be accept that other people also has a right to call it stupid. I suggest we built our Kaan first then you will have time to talk about what is next.
