Selçuk Bayraktar: We have now locked our gaze beyond the atmosphere and into space. We have established our space-related initiative. Hopefully, we aim to make serious contributions to this adventure of our country in 5-10-15 years.

Selçuk Bayraktar: Our post KIZILELMA target is space. We have founded 'Fergani'. We started to develop orbital transfer vehicles and satellite technologies.

The production quality has become close to perfection in the 2nd prototype and will improve further in the future.

By the way, the design on the right Kizilelma (second prototype) in this image looks different from first prototype. The nose part is longer, the center fuselage is narrower and wing form is different from first prototype. The distance between canard and wing is longer in second prototype.

Besides, second prototype has leading edge slats on wings compared to first prototype and wing junction points are no longer visible. Second prototype of Kizilelma looks more like a Gripen to me. @Combat-Master

ASELSAN General Manager and Chairman of the Board Prof. Dr. Haluk Görgün:

• We are making an integrated electro-optical system for Kızılelma and MMU (TF-X).
• First AESA radar is ready for delivery.
• Herd kamikaze 'İDA's are coming.
• We have produced 35 different radars so far.
• We are currently developing 29 different radars.
• We delivered 13 different radars this year.
• We have 12 different new concept radars.
• We are studying others such as quantum radar.

'3M' seems to be the motto of Turkish defense industry lately:

Much Much More:

80 CATS being deliverd to 10 countries in 2022.....

Mr Selçuk Bayraktar: "Cooperation with the countries with which we have signed strategic agreements will continue until we achieve technological independence on the engine."

 

[Cabatli_TR]

Mr Bayraktar: "KIZILELMA will be able to perform aggressive maneuvers thanks to a certain level of autonomy. Of course, you will not do these maneuvers from the cabin, the plane will offer you options. Avoidance, engagement. These will be with artificial intelligence."

 

[Cabatli_TR]

Mr Görgün: "We develop electronic warfare and electronic support systems in the form of pods for air platforms. You will hear good news of these when they are used in AKINCI and TB2. Trials were also successful'

 

[Zafer]

Haluk Görgün of Aselsan: "20 CATS per month will be produced in 2023 with new generation quality". Prototypes of next gen will be tested in a few months.

KIZILELMA will have a locality rate of well over 90%.

Second proto looks smooth.

thats second prototype.

It is obvious that it is not when you zoom in. no flaps, no instruments etc.

I'm pretty sure it was present on the first prototype as well. You could visibly see the slot.

First prototype has a pitot tube just below the wing. LE flap would collide with it.

We don't know how much the LE extends though. We can't say for sure.

I said this before unmanned drones or unmanned planes will be reaching outer space or space itself.

Human body no matter how much they train and their diet still have limitations.
