Contribution of countries into T-129 Atak program was like above at the beginning of the program. With extensive R&D and national development activities, Landing gear and Transmission gearbox have been replaced with domestic equivalents by national institutes. Derivative of national transmission developed for Atak will be used for T-625 GökBey utility helicopters as well.

In final phase,
  • 20mm gatling gun is being developed by Sarsilmaz Silah San.
  • 1400shp engine is being developed by Tusaş Motor San.

TS-1400 Turboshaft engine

That’s incredible !
Few days back I came across some research into Turkish made Heli engines and was wondering what was really missing.
Thanks.
 
With Engines it is really the quality of part used in transmission/engine

a) Sustainability resistant to heat
b) No break down of smaller components causing larger critical failure
c) No reduction in performance due to any mechanical issue

Transmissions are normally mechanical components which have to run with consistency and reliability

For new countries , who are new to technology the main challenge is reliability of their in-house constructed parts vs purchased parts in international markets

Reliability and Performance comes from continuous learning and research and development
and sometimes that research is taken as a basis for future new model
 
it is a game changer

but lets see what comes of it
