Your guess is as good as mine. But reading between the lines it has something to do with a high end jet fighter engine tech using AI. @Nilgiri has given his views on it. I concur with what he says. There are many articles and YouTube news channels that claim that TF35K is in production. One of...

Sungur and Levent missiles are the two very important components of our short range point defence missile systems. Sungur, as well as being man portable, also is pedestal mounted on armoured vehicles for short range point defence. It has a Dual thrust (booster+sustainer) solid rocket engine that...

This is TFX Kaan thread. Stay on topic please. Posts containing off topic comments and discussion points that are overtures to derailing the thread are deleted. Insistence will attract bans.

I suggest you read below page re @Cabatli_TR posts on the matter. https://defencehub.live/threads/propulsion-systems.3/page-140#post-302389 The engine for the TFX has been on the drawing board for many years. Even before 2018. (TR Motor was formed in April 2017) There is a consortium that is...

In Turkish we have saying: Çok konuşan çok yanılır. Best explanation of it would be: The half is better than the whole or A moderate approach often yields the best results Having read Dr Temel Kotil’s latest interview about KAAN, it somehow brought this saying in to my mind. Although it is nice...

In view of Dr Aksit’s statements, we need to know that TF6K/TF10K engines were going to be used as stepping stones to the bigger engine. It was supposed to physically prove to TEI what was being designed in the computer is now a fact in real life. Logic says that the construction design of TF6K...

Why should GE claim: quote: Reduced life-cycle cost GE Aerospace’s F414 features the latest technologies to enhance engine performance, improve engine durability, and reduce life-cycle cost (LCC) for current and future operators of next-generation combat aircraft. unquote If the f414 has...

During Soviet and subsequent Russian era, the jet engine technology development regarding turbine section, has been concentrated on directionally solidified turbine blade production. They have in house perfected the directionally solidified crystals to their own needs by attaining equiaxed...

May I remind all our members that it is our number one duty not to make any unsubstantiated claims. This has nothing to do with just the forum rules. But more to do with where we stand apart from other forums; whereby what is discussed here is correct, relevant and substantiated. Especially on...

Individual part production expertise, is not a sign of capability of a complete turbofan engine manufacturing. An accomplished engine manufacturer like SNECMA took years before M88-1 engine can be flown. In 1983 the engine project was started. In 1986 the plane was ready to house an engine; but...

Not quite! On the surface it may look like government created jobs. But those jobs did not produce something that added to national income. You produced that truck with funds taken from taxpayers’ money and handed it out to few jobless. In return you got nothing. It did not generate any revenues...

I am afraid you are missing a very important point. Let me explain again. - If you buy a truck from abroad for military, that truck stays inert in a warehouse waiting to be used in case of war. But you have used foreign currency reserves to buy it. - If you produce in house a truck for your...

Latest info was that it passed all system qualification tests and being readied to be delivered to the armed forces. It brings CEP values under 50m for maximum specified ranges. The MDK system is immune to EW and electronic deception. @Kartal1...

Bro, then you have not looked at the right places. It is readily available as I have found within few minutes. Hürjet’s MTOW was never given. As it is essentially a trainer that resembles KAI-T50 it is logical to assume to be similar to that plane’s. But if we are going to tweak this jet and...

Yes! There ls that too. If UK and our “diplomats” can get Germany to give the go ahead for the sale within this year, then it would be a viable purchase. Otherwise, if it is dragged out too long, as you have rightly pointed out, it is not going to make much of a difference.
