the Block 30 (i.e. the ultimate version) has always been intended to be equipped with the indigenous engine and delivered by 2032. The fact that Indonesian deliveries in 2032 will also officially come with Turkish engines further supports this.
English translation:Milli muharip uçak’da kullanılacak motora ilişkin soru üzerine Kotil, “Planımız 2028’de KAAN’ı Türk motoruyla uçurmak. Bunun için çalışmalarımız sürüyor. Tabii ki sertifikasyon için 1-2 yıla tekrar ihtiyacımız olur. Ancak 2030’larda Türk motoru olacak. Şu anda F110 motoru ile uçuyoruz.” şeklinde konuştu.
In response to a question about the engine to be used in the National Fighter Aircraft, Kotil said, "Our plan is to fly KAAN with a Turkish engine in 2028. We are continuing our work for this. Of course, we will need another 1-2 years for certification. However, by the 2030s, it will be a Turkish engine. Right now, we are flying with the F110 engine.

Kotil, “Cumhurbaşkanımızın talimatı 2028 yılında 20 tane Hava Kuvvetleri'ne teslim ediyoruz. Ondan sonra sekiz tane daha yapıyoruz. Sonra bir tane daha yapıyoruz. O bir tanenin üzerinde 2028 yılında Türk motoru olacak. Onun için yapıyoruz. Türk motoru da yapılıyor. Bizim gencimiz 10 numara. İsterseniz başarırsınız” şeklinde konuştu.

...After that, we will produce eight more, followed by one additional aircraft. The Turkish engine will be on that single aircraft in 2028. That’s why we’re doing it. The Turkish engine is currently being developed. Our young talent is top-notch. If you set your mind to it, you can succeed.”

English Translation:Bunun yanında şirket 2029 yılına kadar yerli motorla uçacak bir prototip geliştirmeyi de planlamakta. Bu çerçevede ilk uçuş denemelerinin bir tarafında F110, diğer tarafında yerli motor bulunan bir KAAN’da yapılabilmesi şirketin ana hedeflerinden birisi.
Additionally, the company plans to develop a prototype that will fly with the indigenous engine by 2029. One of the main goals of the company is to conduct the first flight tests with a KAAN, where one side is equipped with the F110 engine and the other side with the indigenous engine.
Emphasizing the need for the national combat aircraft KAAN to be 100% indigenous for the security of our country, Kotil said, "We are also manufacturing the engine; we have to. Hopefully, by 2028-2029, we will fly KAAN with our engine. In such a crucial technology, we cannot be dependent on any other country."
