TR TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

[ŞeyhMuşmula]

Not confirmed officially. The info came from a source. Overall 24 fighters will be produced for TuAF every year for ~10 years. TF-X project serial production phase will continue till the end of 2030s.

Temel Kotil said on TEKE TEK something like "300 aircraft sale(probably to TaF) wouldn't be enough, we have to export" something like this, I know he said 300 aircraft but I can't fully recall the sentence.

For a 60000 lbs MTOW, you don’t need such a high tech. That’s the point.

Why are we trying to order Rolls-Royce to develop an engine then?

"The development cost of the MMU will be around 10 billion $. The development cost of the T929 will be just under 1 billion $."

"We are developing Hürjet, T629 and T925 projects with our own resources."

We have many students abroad who could work for TAI. Problem is, they would not come, because of the political situation in Turkey. I meet one yesterday, he will work for AIRBUS. He said, we would not work in Turkey. Less freedom and to much Islamic influence.

Temel Kotil:

"A Turkish and an Italian company will make MMU's landing gears together. It will be indigenious and national. Intellectual property rights will also be in TR."

Mr. Ismail Demir: "We recently said that" No country can be excluded from the F-35 program unilaterally ". The last letter from the USA justified us. The dialogue process will begin for a solution. The process will be based on law "

Has Turkey made stealth materials for TFX already?

Has Turkey made stealth materials for TFX already?

Nothing heard about RAM.

Has Turkey made stealth materials for TFX already?

Yes. Both ram paints and RAM materials are studied. There are several projects that are covering those topics. Maske(Mask) Projects are the first to come to my mind but there are more in Tubitak and I think Gebze institute studied on the subjects too. There are also companies that produce RAM paint in Turkiye at the moment.
