The source is "questionable" at best. :)

I agree. Our current main problem is engine problem. There can be no meaningful progress without solving the engine problem. Then our helicopter fleet will need to be made complete. In this process, if our 3000 hp domestic engines mature and the market conditions are suitable, we can start the...

I don't know the core diameter of the RR Pearl engine. However, the large front fan of the Pearl 15 engine is 123 cm in diameter. Considering that the overall diameter of the F110 engine is 120 cm, it is understandable that a military turbofan engine of F110 size can easily be derived from the...

As far as I understand for rumors, RR company has proposed a military engine to be produced based on civilian RR Pearl turbofan engines. Since the engine core is already available, the development of a military version will be relatively short and inexpensive. Later, they will start to develop...

TAI signed a purchase agreement for both F04 and F110 engines. However, these agreements are only valid for prototypes. GE company, which has already delivered the F110 engines, will most likely deliver the F404 engines before the end of January-2023. The agreement that I call "not yet signed"...

Let me tell you what I said about Altay here. I will give you the correct news. According to the contract, F404 engines must be delivered no later than January 2023. And at this time the engine was not delivered even for the prototypes. Temel Kotil personally phoned and asked, "Where are my F404...

I agree. The major benefit of the T929 in my opinion will be to form the infrastructure of the T925, a general purpose helicopter. I also think that Ukrainian engines are a temporary solution, that we will eventually have to develop the TEI TS3000 engine.

The GE F404 engines were expected to be delivered by the end of 2022. However, they were not delivered. The contract deadline was January 2023. However, as far as I know, there was no delivery until January 15th. Let's see if the F404s will be delivered, I'm very curious. As a footnote...

I say it again. The GE F110 engines in the F16s and the engines that will be used in the TFX are not the same. And no purchase agreement or production under license agreement has yet been signed for TFX. Moreover, the domestic engine development contract was not signed with TEI or Kale...

In fact, 120 F110 engines are required, not 80. 80 F110 Engines are required for 40 aircraft and also 40 F110 spare engines are required. "We will use the F110 for the first two fleets of TFX." they say. But there are no F110 engines out there that are bought and put into storage. There is no...

Actually like F15EX The engines to be used in TFX are F110, that's right. However, these are specially produced engines for twin-engine aircraft. They are not exactly the same as those used in F16s. (I wish it was, but it isn't. That's why I'm so nervous. :)) At worst case, we'd scrap the two...

Why should we pay the money in one go? As the engines are delivered, their money is transferred to their account. There is no guarantee that they will deliver the engines, that is true. But they have signatures to guarantee they'll be sued. :) I said before, I think they would never sign that...

Yes. Selçuk Bayraktar said that at least 20 engines were purchased and put into storage. This number is sufficient to meet the production until the domestic engine, namely TEI TF10000. Yes, Aksungur was not developed independently. She is the product of a process that started with Anka. But...

Thats point! Bravo. i) Foreign engines to be used in the prototype will also be engines planned for mass production and will be purchased in large numbers in advance and put into storage. As in the case of the Kızılelma. ii) The other option is that the domestic power pack will be used first...

I hope this comes true. I wish this with all my heart. Because the Altay project cannot be saved without the domestic power package. Forget about any foreign source. They only give for prototypes.

I agree again. I think the Altay project we know died a long time ago. The AKP administration made almost every mistake written in the book in this project. I think the few power packs from Korea are coming just for election propaganda. As you said, the Altay Project is one of the most...

I agree with you. If the Batu power pack is miraculously successful (I expect transmission-related problems), the Altay should be redesigned in Armata style with an unmanned turret and that design should be put into mass production. There are many lessons to be learned from the Ukraine war...

2 prototypes to be delivered in May will be delivered without engine. Depending on the situation to be tested, either the Batu or the Korea power pack will be disassembled and installed. By the way, the domestic transmission was integrated into the Batu engine and is being tested. From what I...

No, again. Only two prototypes will be delivered for testing in May. "Weren't prototypes already produced?" you may ask. Previous prototypes were built in accordance with the German power pack. Anyway, Altay won't come until 2025. Mass production is planned with domestic Batu Power Pack. I...

"It is claimed that the ALTAY tank will be taken off the production line." That's the title of the news. Claim of a local newspaper. If there was such a development, BMC company would first announce it on its corporate twitter account. I repeat, there is no confirmed news for the Altay Tank.
