TF-X / KAAN / Hürjet Turkish Fighter & Trainer Aircrafts News & Discussions

[Pakistan First]

S400 can do all that SIPER and the next SIPER variant can.

Russian air-defense, avionics are total crap. Russian fighter jets also considered to be subpar only because of lack of russian advancements in electronics. The fighter jets otherwise could be capable but their avionics, radars/ew and weapon systems sucks. See what Ukraine is doing almost daily with Russia. Firing till Moscow and russian air force and air defense can't do a thing about it.

The tie between France and Turkey are not strong enough to imagine that. You will find a solution with EJ200 or a US engine....

EJ-200 or American F-414 / F-404 Engines dont work on KIZILELMA

French M-88 is almost 2 times heavier than AI-322F
It would require BAYKAR engineers to reinforce the fuselage structure and shift internal avionics forward to maintain the KIZILELMA's center of gravity

This leads to system limitations in KIZILELMA or it becomes necessary to design a larger, new platform.

Comparing Aselsan HAKİM C4ISR to a Russian air defense umbrella is fundamentally a comparison between an AI-driven software brain and a rigid hardware architecture

Turkiye : Fully automated AI/machine learning algorithms
Russia : Mostly manual or semi-automated

--------------------------------------------------------------------

S-400 battery is highly dependent on its own Radars. If electronic warfare or a low altitude Cruise Missile - kamikaze Drone blinds that specific Radar, the entire battery becomes vulnerable

Aselsan HAKIM C4ISR solves this via a modern digital mesh. It aggregates data from completely different types of Radars (ALP-300G , KALKAN-II, naval Frigates/Destroyer , E-7T AEWC and F-16s ) to create a single, unified recognized air picture to fire HISAR and SIPER missiles to intercept threats

 

[MMM-E]

Russia is a nuclear super power also Russia is leader in hypersonic weapons

but , Russia is not a country capable of waging modern warfare to match with NATO

for example , due to microchip and semiconductor limitations, Russian systems rely on older generation processor architectures compared to NATO Systems ( link-16/22 , JREAP-C , T-LINK ) including SIPER and HAKIM C4ISR. This limits the amount of data they can process per second and the speed of artificial intelligence algorithms.

And Russian systems also lack real-time data fusion

----------------------------------------------------------------------

The fighter jets otherwise could be capable

Russian Su-57 does not have an all-aspect stealth design compared to its Western rivals and its RCS is significantly larger than the F-35 and KAAN

We will see if your Kaan will be ready before. It's another task to built on a serial basis than to hand made prototyps.

Do you think Turkiye is Greece ?

Turkish Aerospace Industries operates a world-class aerospace production facility spanning 5 million square meters in Ankara

The facility houses advanced high-technology machinery capable of managing the entire product lifecycle from raw material parts manufacturing to complete aircraft assembly, flight tests, and delivery

official source: https://www.tusas.com/en/media-center/news/turkish-aerospace-has-renewed-its-web-site

TAI's production plan until 2034
-- 500 KAAN , HURJET , HURKUS
-- 350 GOKBEY , ATAK , ATAK-2
-- 600 ANKA-3 , ANKA-S , AKSUNGUR



Even France in Europe doesn't produce this many products.

Everyone should know their place. Turkiye is no longer a country you can make fun of.

None of these are happening in that quantity
Kaan with good luck have 60-80 airframes
Hürjet with all its different variants around 100 under good circumstances
Atak t129 (new deliveries) 20-30
Atak t929 maybe 10-20
Gökbey 100+
Anka 3 <80
Anka 1 (new deliveries) maybe 60 or so
Aksungur less then 50
No point in producing if you have no customer unless the government wants to replace its total inventory
