New specs about Kaan dropped.

View attachment 143171

I'm still not convinced the MTOW figure is right though. Otherwise it would be quite the hotrod with a TWR of 0.97 at MTOW with the F110's.

With these new specs, this is how the J-20 and Kaan stack up:

So head of SSB has a press conference. The following where stated:

- Work continues on the second prototype of KAAN. Its first flight will take place this year.

- There will be fundamental visual differences (from the first prototype).

- A total of 6 KAANs will be produced for the tests.

- The 2028 target for KAAN continues. We will install our domestic engine on KAAN in early 2029-2030.

- KAAN's domestic engine will be a 36,000 pound engine. The design will be frozen and will go into production. We have meetings every week. The first batch will not be included in the delivery, but in the next batch.

- We have customers waiting for our warships that have been built. These can be exported as long as our navy allows.

- ASELFLIR-500 was developed in 2024 and exported to 16 countries in just one year.

- The flights of the aircraft equipped with mission systems in the HAVA-SOJ (Stand Off Jammer) project will begin this year.

- The Kara ATMACA missile hit the target at a distance of 400 km with its KTJ-3700 turbojet engine.
