What is your source?TAI is facing very serious problems with the tail stabilizer actuators of the Kaan aircraft.
The source is definitely not a TUSAS employee.What is your source?
What was the case with P0?The source is definitely not a TUSAS employee.
The source is a foreign company that TUSAS was thinking of assigning to produce these actuators. But the company reported to TUSAS that this is technically impossible. There are two other foreign companies applied as well. The report they sent to TUSAS is along the same lines.
I can take one more step regarding the source, but nothing more.
So you say shorten it? Or move the pivot point? Is it basically the thing is too long and a high power actuator will not fit the space available?The source is definitely not a TUSAS employee.

What was the case with P0?
I am not an expert on the subject and technical details of vertical stabilizer. But in all images and schematics KAAN does not seem to have different sized ones than of the ones on f22 su57 or f35. What is fundamentally wrong on KAAN? Eeven if it is wrong, why do you think TAI chooses this way? Do they expect better results?According to the statement of Mr. Altinay, Chairman of the Board of ALTINAY Technology Group, the tail actuators required for the KAAN Aircraft were developed locally, qualified, and delivered to TUSAS.
Mr. Altinay also confirms that foreign companies were assigned to this task and returned to TUSAS with a report saying it couldn’t be done.
As far as I know, one of these companies is American and the other is German. You can figure out which companies they are by inferring from the previous message.
Now, is it right to insist on a solution that will lead to the wrong result, spending thousands of engineering hours, just to stick to a side list? Or is it better to go for a simple design change that has already proven itself? Other manufacturers chose the second way.
