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

[BonPlan]

The F414-EPE and newer variants have 26,400 lbf (117 kN), giving an almost 11:1 thrust/weight ratio.

The M88 is underpowered, compared to both the F414 and the EJ200.

So compare F414 EPE and M88 T-rex. Same perf increase (+20%), so the less than 4% difference remains my dear.

If these 2 engines are built for same purpose : good in all, but not optimised in one field, EJ200 can't be compared : optimised for high altitude, as M53 in its time. less optimised for CAS mission.
