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

Some writeup of the test flight : https://www.twz.com/air/turkeys-kaan-next-generation-fighter-has-flown

There's no place on the internet as toxic as the comment section of TWZ. What's wrong with these people?

Calm down and check the facts … the smaller sibling is being built - and allegedly close to being tested for the first time - but definitely not the Kaan‘s engine. This monster engine is even by Turkish sources still some years away.

BY the way, @hyperman … can you please merge this with the other MMU/TFX Kaan thread? There is no need for now a third one.

Thread merged.

They feel insecure and feel the need to lash out at anything non US or European.

Generic comments about F-22 or F-35 from aliexpress or wish, or Burger at home memes. just ignore them. This is a very capable platform for those who are familiar with it.

Turkish engine company TEI has already produced many engine parts, also produced helicopter and turbojet engines. But never produced a turbofan engine. Therefore, it is gaining experience by producing an engine with a thrust of 6000 lb without afterburner and 10,000 lb with afterburner. These engines were named TF6000 and TF10000. If successful, it will produce the TF35k engine with 35,000 lb of thrust with afterburner. The first engine run test of the TF6000 and TF10000 will take place soon.
