Mete Yarar in his recent YouTube video says Hurjet's engines will be integrated into a prototype by the end of the month
How is this thing gonna fly this year man? Mind boggling. I really do wonder how long they will be doing the ground tests.

TAI had announced that they will use Artificial Intelligence in testing of planes which will reduce test times to 30% of the usual taking out 70% of the time spent on testing.

I know but I don't think that mechanism can be integrated straight away. It needs time. Second of all Mete Yarar suggests that the first flight will happen next year. That's yet another contradicting statement, but it makes more sense. Meh, dunno, TAI knows best. Anyhow, I watched the video in its entirety, and I'm glad about the progress TAI has made. It won't be long until we see pictures of the MMU getting manufactured.

Testing progresses by stages, not time. This aircraft probably shares many similarities (some subsystems might even be the same) with Hürkuş. The idea was to make a secret first flight before the official one to ensure all are okay during that one.

Probably they will have a very intense evaluating process during testing. Probably they use AI and high CPU power during that time to make things faster.

They probably are and I'm not denying that. It is a tight schedule though!

Why? Because you believe the most recent example, KF-21 which made its initial flight in 2022, is the new standard and an aircraft of taking about 15 months from rollout to maiden flight is "norm"? I was trying to give Turkish some hope that It could rather be done in about 10 months, but I guess you prefer Hurjet to make an inaugural flight in 2024 instead.
Do you realize that Hürjet is a single engine plane and is simpler than the KF-21, obviously not.

Mr Ismail Demir: "Before TFX MMU target, 1-2 models of Kızılelma and HÜRJET will enter the inventory. These will also be a significant power multiplier on its scale"

what about tius and göksungur
I believe TISU will be developed after the design work of ongoing projects are completed and in sync with the development of the TF6000 engine. As Kızılelma will come before it and will fill the gap negating urgency. They should make a bomber and a tanker as well as a fighter of it all with twin engines while Baykar make single engine fighters.

From what I understand, TISU is currently under development with a similar timeline to that of MIUS.

While MIUS sourced suitable engines from Ukraine there is no talk of TISU at all. We have no idea what size it will even be, an aspect which is closely associated with engine availability. So I am guessing it is tied to the TF6000 engine development timeline.
