BAE Systems will participate in the development of the Turkish advanced fighter

The management of the Department of Defense Industry (SSM) of the Turkish Defense Ministry will soon complete negotiations with representatives of the BAE Systems concern on the conditions for joint design of a promising TFX fighter, the blog bmpd with reference to the agency dha.

Estimated image of a promising Turkish fighter TFX.

The fact is that "BAE Systems won the tender announced by the Turkish government to design a promising TFX fighter for the Turkish Air Force," the agency said, noting that the Swedish company Saab AB was a competitor of the corporation, "which had previously provided SSM with technical assistance perspective light multipurpose fighter ".

The first flight of the new fighter is scheduled for 2023, the year of the 100 anniversary of the Republic of Turkey. The start of serial deliveries to the military department is expected in 2030.

“When building the TFX aircraft, it is intended to maximize the potential of the Turkish industry,” the agency writes. “It is expected that the Turkish manufacturers of composite materials, thanks to the experience and technologies obtained during Turkey’s participation in the program for the development and production of the Lockheed Martin F-35 fighter, will be able to ensure the creation of a TFX airframe.”

The newly appointed head of SSM Demir spoke out against the TFX project, calling the prospects for its implementation “vague”.

“Obviously, RT T. personally played the decisive role in deciding on the further development of the project. Erdogan, for whom this project is image-based, ”concludes the publication.

The only question is whether Turkey will exist in its current form by 2023.

With Erdogan, definitely not. The Saratov division (aircraft) will take care of this

[Vita vko]

Good news. BAE Systems know very well. The company specializes in corrupt relationships, which is why it does the most successful business in African countries. The effectiveness of the project will be zero. I am sure that they will put the old technology with a bunch of bookmarks at an ultra-high price. And this is despite the fact that Asilsan with BAE Systems has a very long experience in cooperation.
They decided to somehow boast of their technology about 8 years ago. Yes, so the experts were in shock, it was necessary to think of it in the 21st century to brag about the hinged soldering of gilded microcircuits, obviously with huge heat generation and microwave electric oscillators, analogues of which ceased to be produced in Russia in the late 90s.

[USSR 1971]

It is a pity that it is impossible to entrust the development of the Turkish promising fighter AvtoVAZ.
It would be an interesting machine, with original technical solutions.

[dauria]

thanks to the experience and technology gained during Turkey’s participation in the Lockheed Martin F-35 fighter’s development and production program,

Create a competitor for the F-35? It's ridiculous ... How do they want to lower the price? Only due to the filling? So the Americans can also sell a half-empty F-35 glider with an engine, although who will need it in this version?
Rather, I believe that the Chinese will create such a beast, they really need it and they have enough money for it.

Therefore, they set a date like this - BAE Systems knows that by 2023 there will be no Customer. In general, by the year 2023, the 7th generation should be done, but the Turks have no choice.

Yes, they just perfectly understand what would happen with their F-16 if our SU-30 MS, SU-35, SU-34 were nearby, their shabby phantom would fall on the territory of Syria, and then the question would drop who and whose borders were violated. I think our new aircraft is not a hindrance. By that time, there will be T-50 PAKFA in our VKS.

F -16 is Fighting Falcon - corresponding to our Mig29, but not Phantom !!!

Turkey wants to enter the pool of world powers, so Erdogan needs his 5th generation airplane.

[kursk87]

Turkey is a serious player in the Middle East. Strengthening Turkey will entail a new surge of violence in the Middle East. Any military strengthening of Turkey cannot be ignored by the Russian Federation

[Vladimirets]

Quote: kursk87

Strengthening Turkey will entail a new surge of violence in the Middle East.

If you are talking about an airplane, then before this "amplification", at least 10 years. During this time, either the odd-hoofed one will die or Erdogan.

[kursk87]

There is no need to hope that a person will come to power in Turkey who will abandon Erdogan's ideas. The clash of interests of Russia and Turkey in the Middle East can only intensify the confrontation between the two countries. The West can contribute to the military strengthening of Turkey, since the recklessness of the West only increases, the Western "hawks" will certainly support such a confrontation. It is not necessary that Turkey will create its own "super plane", a country that is part of the North Atlantic Alliance can purchase military equipment from its allies

[good7]

I completely agree, no one will abandon the idea of ​​the Ottoman Empire! They have already entered Iraq with the tacit support of the West! Only loads of 200 in especially large quantities can cool the ardor of Ottoman!

[Waroc]

And the super-waffle - the F-35 is no longer quoted ...))) But all the NATO (and not only NATO) sixes wanted (just the same they were eager) to buy, they were already being built ...

[polite people]

Do not have time. Krantets is inexorably approaching the Turks.

[The black]

I agree. In the coming years, difficult times await Turkey. The United States used the Turks as their governors in the Middle East. However, the perdogan decided to play his game. He shot down a Russian plane, invaded Iraq ..... In general, the Pasha lost his nerves. And if our plane in the West (and in the East) does not interest anyone., Then the willfulness in Iraq, which states and Saudis believe they can’t forgive him for their saints. So in the coming years I’m waiting for the civil war in the Kurdish provinces of Turkey and their separation from Turkey. And, by the way, the creation of an independent Kurdistan, which will be formed on the part of the territories of Turkey, Iraq and Syria, will it seems to me that the subject of bargaining is between us and the USA. about something tells me that there is a chance to negotiate ...

[Reserve buildbat]

If this "product" takes off in 2023 and goes into production in 2030, then everything is fine. By that time, 1 Russian bomber will need a squadron of such "kings of the air". And then there is no guarantee that they will catch up and shoot down))))

But seriously - let them spend money.

[APASUS]

I am actually not surprised by such a choice of the Turks, although they would have had more chances to build their own plane with the Swedes. I think this is a failed idea that BAE Systems will try to nullify after they have sucked all the money from the country, and the contract will be signed in such a way that the information received will become their property and will be used in the next aircraft, which will only be built by BAE Systems without Turkey. The question is why the West needs another competitor, a country with an unstable "democracy" to own advanced technologies. There is also a danger that the Turks can supply technology and planes to obvious opponents and the sale of the most important democracy will fall.

[Glaz8000]

After 8 years, the first flight, after 15 deliveries to the army, what kind of aircraft is not clear, the possibilities are not known. In my opinion, the Turks are overestimating the capabilities of their defense industry and their economy. And BAE systems make good money on Turkish ambitions.

[ZYRYANIN]

The fuselage and the wing planes are covered with unrealized mink coats, and they will be refilled with tomato juice, fortunately, now the tomatoes in Turkey are heaps! ..

[lis-ik]

Tomato juice does not work out of their tomatoes, I tried it with those written off from the store, just scrolling, and then for normal "frying", for example, for the first one you have to add tomato paste, by the way, in the best times Turkish tomatoes occupied the last position in sales, by the way, like tangerines ...

[guzik007]

Want unshared news? In Yelabuga, an ambitious joint Turkish project was covered with a copper basin. They built a huge greenhouse complex, they wanted to flood Russia with local Turkish tomatoes. They invested billions. And everything was covered with a copper basin. I don’t even know how to comment.

[Babai Balkan]

I wonder how much the price will increase during the development process over these 10 years.

[dchegrinec]

By 2030, these 5th generation fighters can be thrown into the trash!

[Funnels]

They have the same cooperation with Ukraine. It was necessary to conclude an agreement with Antonov Design Bureau and a new plane would have flown tomorrow.

[Babai Balkan]

her !!! Funding will end with the flow of free Syrian oil !!!

[Mountain shooter]

Stupid ambitions have always cost countries too much. In the 19th century there was a saying - if you want to ruin a small country, give her a cruiser!
Aircraft carriers are already too much, but a fighter with manners for the 5th generation — having no designers or production experience — is overkill.
It will be much cooler than the fifth generation Chinese, who looks like "ok" from the incestuous marriage of the PAK FA with the F 35.

[NEXUS]

After reading this news, I came to the conclusion that the Turks believe that the creation of a 5th generation fighter is easy and simple. Even if the mattresses help with technology (which I strongly doubt), and there will be funding for the project, then before the 30th year we definitely don’t have to wait for the prototype And by the 30th year, all world players will be fully engaged in the issue of fighter aircraft for the 6th generation. Even now, the concept of using 6th generation fighter aircraft is already being developed.
So a Turk can answer with a phrase from "The Golden Calf" - Saw, Shura, she is golden. "

[cherkas.oe]

Well, imperial ambitions oblige, let them try. But it seems to me that it will turn out, as always. The development is Swedish, the engines, the gun, the OMS and the pin-d-o-stan communications, the chassis of the paddles, the OLS and the radar too, only screwdrivers will be Turkish.

[rotmistr60]

design promising fighter TFX for Turkish Air Force

Turkey is neither the first nor the last country where an ally, or a team of allies begins to design something promising. It drags on for years, draws a lot of money, and in the end it can turn out to be zilch. So let them design. We are not standing still either.
