KAAN's head engineer: "Maybe you'll see, we have a 6 meter long titanium frame that is done being processed. On this aircraft (referring to GTU-0/P0) we didn't have the necessary equipment to process such parts, so we procured them now. This will bring huge advantages regarding the production of the second prototype. The titanium frame is currently being processed, the operation is continuing. We are also making the necessary modifications to the main assembly jigs accordingly. You should be able to see the second prototype in the flesh next year around this time."

Anka-3 tanker version. It would be utterly useless for refueling jets, as it can't refill even internal tanks of a single F-16. Might be useful for other Anka-3s and Kızılelmas if these aircraft are refuelable.
