Turkey builds the F110 engines for the f16s as well as the F136 engines for the F35 jets, why can't the knowledge gained from that be used to build an indigenous engine for the TF-X?
Surely there must be some black projects which do this?

Do you really believe what you just wrote?

Doesn't Tusas have a licence to build F110 engines for Turkish F16s? And Part of the F35 deal was Turkey would be one of the locations where F35's would be sent for overhaul and repairs?

Another route is to have the domestic Tusas Engine Industries (TEI), which license-manufactures the F110 engines used in F-16s, develop its own turbofans.

Additionally, Turkish Industry are going to have significant Industrial Participation role supporting Lockheed Martin and Pratt and Whitney for F-35 aircraft sustainment and F135 engine production and sustainment. Turkey has been given the approval to build its own F135 engines and was also selected to have the first European Regional F135 Engine depot overhaul capability.

Yeahh we "built" F110s just like we "built" F-16s I am not even going to comment on F135 engine production thing, that's ridiculous.

 

[Kiryu]

Turkish companies have the licenses to manufacture components and assemble the engines. That's a lot of knowledge which has been gained. If Turkey hasn't got a black project to engineer these engines then Turkey is far too nice for it's own good.

I think you're confusing "designed" with "built" and that's why you think it's ridiculous. I suggest you take a loot at whats being produced in Turkey and you may be in for a nice surprise.

Then after that look up at whats being designed in Turkey and the smile might fade a little

Bravo azyr, it's crazy to read how many people who pretend that they knew everything about own country capabilitys but then you realize they don't now so simple things as licence production of complete or parts of engines which is actually none secret infomration at all! I bet he doesn't know that main part of TR F-35, if they ever come to TR after latest dev., are all completed in TR it self! Every single TR F-35 supposed to have main part done in TR, transported to US where the complete fighter is assembled.

Repeat after me: "We did not produce F-16, F110 engine, F135 engine. We still don't produce F-16, F110 engine, F135 engine"

ahahahaha it's even more funny to see that there is a need to say this in this forum, what kind of dream you guys live in

Hm, strange:

The General Electric F110 is an afterburning turbofan jet engine produced by GE Aviation. The F110 engine uses the same engine core design as the General Electric F101. The F118 is a non-afterburning variant. The engine is also license-built in Eskisehir, Turkey by TUSAŞ Engine Industries (TEI).[1][2]

Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) has been strategically supporting the F-35 Program since 2008. The company currently supplies production hardware that goes into every F-35 production aircraft. In conjunction with Northrup Grumman, TAI manufactures and assembles the center fuselages, produces composite skins and weapon bay doors, and manufactures fiber placement composite air inlet ducts. Additionally, TAI is strategically manufacturing 45 percent of the F-35’s including Air-to-Ground Pylons and adapters which is Alternate Mission Equipment (AME).

Are you guys bot or something that sending same thing after and after? According to Wikipedia, we built F-16 as well lmao

That is ridiculous, you just produce some blades then import rest of the platform from outside, then combine those parts under supervision of the owner company is not "building" at all. You cannot build it by yourself if you want it so

It looks like somebody pays you very good to be that "patriotic" and "realistic" about your homeland capabilities! Who could it be? ;-) It seems that TR doesn't care much about those like you anymore.
