I think they are waiting for the first data from the TF-6000 engine. If this engine produces 5000+ pounds of thrust on first ignition without any problems, then they will stop procrastinating and accelerate the project of developing the TF-35000 engine as much as possible.

First of all, we Turks are not completely destitute of technological infrastructure and technical knowledge, neither regarding engines nor transmissions. On the contrary, we developed and mass produce the PD-xxx series diesel aviation engines used in UAVs and the transmission of the Gökbey...

Seems to me that these poor girls are more afraid of black predator males.

"IF"

When the project started, AKP did not have any problems with Koç Group. Despite this, the people running the Koç Group were not at all interested in developing the domestic military engine and its transmission. They weren't even interested in the 500 HP one. However, they could have developed...

Well, Koç Group stayed away from the domestic military engine and transmission development project from the very beginning! The situation in Arma-II occurred as a result of the imposition of the SSB. If it were not for the SSB imposition, Koç Group would continue to use the foreign power...

Production of Fırtına-2s continues without the power pack. It is expected that the tests of BMC's 1000 HP UTKU Power Package installed on the vehicle will be completed in 2024 and mass production will begin in 2025, because it has successfully passed all tests so far. Türkiye can find at least...

@LegionnairE I'm not worried about the lack of tanks in terms of quality and quantity. What really worries me is the lack of i) AESA radars and ii) jet-powered drones (KE and Anka-3) and iii) Kaan and iv) especially Siper. I hope we don't get into a war before these come.

No, you're thinking wrong. BMC Power's pace of progress proves this to us. It could happen if really wanted. If it had been planned from the beginning that the engine would also be developed indigenously, tanks using national engines would have been included in the inventory by now...

Turkey - Greece, Turkey - Russia, Turkey - İran and list go on ... I agree with you @VkdIndian

LOL Netanyahu, Modi, Hitler or Putin, it doesn't matter; No one's life is valuable to such authoritarian+opportunist political figures. Netanyahu has already proven that he is a war criminal with his previous actions. He will not spare the same ruthlessness to Israeli citizens.

In my opinion, the reason for this intelligence fiasco and the covert planner of the attack is Benjamin Netanyahu. Netanyahu seems to have prepared the ground for this attack to eliminate his political rivals.

Tanks are no longer important as an offensive element, this part is true. What was the heavy tank concept? A tank was to be a mobile field gun + mobile machine gun nest, resistant to machine gun fire and artillery shell shrapnel, right? Today, what hits a tank is not machine gun bullets or...

I hope Navalize Gökbey will come within 3 years. But this would be a miracle in my opinion. Navalize Gökbey is not something that can be achieved with simple modifications to the existing Gökbey. Navalize Gökbey will be a completely different helicopter. The engine will also be a completely...

Aforementioned helikopter T-629 and she is on the way. However, I think we do not need it, even though we can easily produce the engine since it is TS-1400 and uses Gökbey infrastructure. We need a navalized general purpose helicopter, namely the navalized T925. If there were no problems with...

I am afraid navalization will not be easy for Gökbey. The entire Gökbey helicopter and its avionics will need to be redesigned from scratch and manufactured with other types of materials, including the TS-1400 with its engine. On the other hand, I agree with you again, we do not need ATAK-2...

In next 10 years, yes. I agree with you. The TS-3000 turboshaft engine project cannot be started before 10 years. Because the TF-10000 and TF-35000 turbofan engine projects are much more important and urgent projects.

@jhungary ; We do not produce as large-scale as China. Likewise, Israel does not do it either. The drones produced by the USA will be expensive and it is impossible to predict what the US Senate will do. Just yesterday, Republicans tried to cut off aid to Ukraine. China would hurt itself if it...

I prefer a photo of her flying. Especially if it was shot while flying with domestic TF-35000 engines, it would be the strawberry on the cake.

If AKP were doing such right things, why did same AKP fire the old Maoist and new Islamist that "Bearded" personality? Well, if you're wrong, admit it and let it be over. For example, am I criticizing the government on aviation engines? No, I'm not criticizing. Especially UAV/UCAV engines came...
