Turkey in the three ways of the “Eurofighter” jet, the restoration of the “F-16” or relying on the “Kan” fighter

According to the report of Fars News Agency International Group, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Sunday that during the recent talks with German Chancellor Olaf Schultz, about He has not talked about the possible purchase of “Eurofighter” fighters, and if these fighters are not sent, he may rely on Turkey’s domestic power or other options.

News agency report “Anatolia” Erdogan added that Turkey may be interested in other fighters. Erdogan told reporters while returning from Germany: “Olaf Schultz did not comment on whether they will give the Eurofighter or not. We have already given our answer clearly. “If they don’t give us these planes, we have many options.” We are taking measures to meet our needs permanently.”

Turkey claims to build a fifth-generation fighter, which analysts believe is possible. It will take a decade or more for this aircraft to become operational.

Turkish Defense Minister Yashar Güler said last Thursday that Turkey plans to have 40 fighter jets. Buy a Eurofighter Typhoon. He said in the Turkish Parliament: “We want to buy Eurofighter. This plane is very effective. These planes are made by England, Germany and Spain.”

5th generation fighter project “Kan” as an important part of Turkey’s strategy to reduce reliance to foreign fighters. It is expected that the Kahn fighter will reach combat readiness by the mid-2030s, and the costs associated with this effort are also significant. Therefore, Turkey will likely continue to strengthen its fleet of F-16 jets and purchase additional aircraft until Kan is fully operational.

Kan’s fighter stands out in terms of dimensions with a length of 22 meters, a wingspan of 14 meters and a height of 6 meters. This aircraft has a maximum take-off weight of 30,000 kg and can reach a maximum speed of Mach 2. This plane is powered by two engines. The fifth-generation Kahn fighter is equipped with a wide range of weapons, including air-to-air missiles, air-to-ground missiles and bombs.
