Dostojevskij has authored many master pieces throughout his life and I'd like to recommend Idiót to some of my fellow forummers.

The struggles we have won't disappear anytime soon or next 20 years. creating an institutionalized infrastructure that maintains and evolves what knowledge we have would require educational institutions contribution to the industry of avionics. And we'd need to order and buy the products to maintain a driving force behind it.

Like France does. As it is the whims of politicians can pretty much screw us over instantly.

Finding partners and producing 4.5 gen would already be a huge success considering how we'd be able to offer a jet to friendly Nations without strings like the west does it.

4G? Who wants to partner on a new 4G project with Gripen E, F-16, Rafale, Eurofighter, F-15EX in production and Tejas Mk2 due to enter production next decade?

What about Spain partnering in some way in KAAN if FCAS is abandoned? Would not be spending on FCAS, so would have funds available.

It is not surprising that this could happen, given that the FCAS project has so far been a "pull and don't break"...
Spain is following the development of the KAAN fighter very closely

According to this newspaper article a year ago, the NATO summit is scheduled to be held in this building in Ankara.
It's therefore not surprising that the first flight of the (KAAN P1) fighter will take place around the same time.
