My goodness, SpaceX's speed is stunning. Wasn't aware of SH construction beginning already this week.
They are clearly aiming at proving as much of the technology as possible before NASA selects one or two companies for their lunar lander contract.
SN8 will perform the 20km hop. The construction of SN8 is almost completed. I think SpaceX will conduct a couple of more hops with SN5 and SN6 to gather data and validate systems. so a month or two before the 20km hop.
You are reaching a number of terrible and wrong conclusions in your post.
1. Greece will upgrade 84 F-16s with AESA while Turkey can upgrade almost their entire fleet of F-16s. The Turkish upgrade might be slightly inferior, but not by a large margin.

Your words and opinions are worthless.
Even if the engine is not ready by 2030, it will be in 2031 or the year after that. A few years of delay doesn't matter. Turkey will become independent in this field and...
Indeed, people have a right to be sceptical, but you guys are butthurt.
TS1400 is in its final stage of ground-testing and will in the coming months start flight-testing. There is no doubt about its usability nor reliability. Stop making stuff up.
