Any future derivatives of the engine may be utilized to power the indigenous platforms such as ATAK and HURKUS. Moreover; core technology of the engine will form the basis for the engine needed for “Indigenous Training/Fighter Aircraft - T/FX”, and it will be possible to develop the indigenous aircraft engine when needed, upon any necessary technological additions to the capabilities gained under Turboshaft Engine Development Project . www.tei.com.tr 10 11 www.tei.com.tr UAV Turbojet/Turboprop/Piston Engine Projects: As part of the projects conducted for the needs of domestic UAV platforms, the engines development stages of which have been completed and are now ongoing are: TJ35, TJ90, TP38, PD-170, PG-115, PD-155, PG-50. Indigenous Engine Programs TP38 Turboprop Engine: TP38 Turboprop Engine Project (shaft power: 42 hp) is the first successful UAV gas-turbine engine project in Turkey. Flight tests were successfully completed, using TAI’s Turna platform. TJ35 Turbojet Engine: Development activities for TJ35 Turbojet engine were completed by the end of 2013 and flight tests of the 40lbf-thrust engine were completed using Futura 1.9 and T62-C platforms. TJ90 Turbojet Engine: Qualification process for TJ90 Turbojet Engine, which is developed for the Simsek platform of TUSAS with a thrust of 90 Ibf, has been completed. The first flight test on the experimental platform was performed on June 05, 2013 and currently flight tests with Simsek are being planned. UAV Piston Engine Projects: Besides the 3 successfully-completed projects with its products either already delivered or now in delivery phase, 2 projects are actively in progress under piston engine development projects. The first engine start-up for the Operative UAV Engine Development Project, executed by SSM in early 2013, was run. It is aimed to complete the entire qualification and certification activities by the end of 2018. www.tei.com.tr 10 11 www.tei.com.tr Technology Projects Undersecretariat for Defence Industries Projects Development Project for Additive Manufacturing Technology for Nickel Alloy Plating in Aviation (YAKUT): The project aims to develop metal powder laser melting process with a modeling tool which will also enable to foresee potential deformations due to stress before the process in order to manufacture functional and metallic engine parts with a complex geometry. Development Project for Superplastic Forming Process for Titanium Alloys (DİLEK): The project, carried out by TAI and TEI in cooperation, aims to process titanium alloys, which are widely used in aviation engines and platforms, with an innovative method for the first time in Turkey.

    Van VlaamseVan makelij Van Vlaamse makelij Rapport Het eindgebruik van Vlaams militair materiaal Rapport december 2011 COLOFON Auteur: Nils Duquet Eindredactie: Tomas Baum Wies De Graeve Met dank aan: Marc Soubry Lay-out: Gramma nv Drukwerk: Drukkerij Artoos Verantwoordelijke uitgever: Tomas Baum (Leuvenseweg 86, 1000 Brussel) Brussel, 13 december 2011 ISBN 9789078864479 Disclaimer Hoewel door het Vlaams Vredesinstituut uiterste zorgvuldigheid werd betracht bij de redactie van dit rapport, kan het niet aansprakelijk worden geacht of gesteld voor mogelijke vergissingen of onvolledigheden. Tevens wordt geen enkele vorm van aansprakelijkheid aanvaard voor enig gebruik dat een lezer van dit rapport maakt. Van Vlaamse makelij Het eindgebruik van Vlaams militair materiaal Synthese De specifieke aard van de defensiegerelateerde industrie in Vlaanderen maakt het moeilijk om een zicht te krijgen op het reële eindgebruik van geëxporteerde Vlaamse defensieproducten. In dit onderzoek wordt een antwoord geboden op twee vragen die de afgelopen jaren herhaaldelijk wer- den gesteld in het Vlaams Parlement en in het maatschappelijke debat: “Waar komt het geëxpor- teerd Vlaams militair materieel uiteindelijk terecht?” en “Waar wordt dit materieel voor gebruikt?”. De Vlaamse vergunde wapenexport wordt gerealiseerd door een relatief kleine groep van (vaak vooral op de civiele markt gerichte) hoogtechnologische bedrijven en bestaat voornamelijk uit componenten die door buitenlandse bedrijven worden geïntegreerd in grotere wapensystemen. De afgelopen jaren was 90 à 95% van de vergunde Vlaamse wapenexport initieel bestemd voor buitenlandse bedrijven (vooral uit Europa en de Verenigde Staten). Via deze bedrijven komen de Vlaamse producten terecht bij strijdkrachten over de hele wereld. Een analyse van de verslagen van de Vlaamse Regering toont aan dat de uiteindelijke eindgebruiker meestal niet gekend is tijdens de Vlaamse vergunningsprocedure en deze informatie dus niet wordt meegenomen in de vergunningsbeslissing.

  • Nhindustries NH90 from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    NHIndustries NH90 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The NHIndustries NH90 is a medium-sized, twin-engine, multi-role military helicopter. It was developed in response to NATO requirements for a battlefield helicopter which would also be capable of being operated in naval environments. The NH90 NH90 was developed and is manufactured by NHIndustries, a collaborative company, which is owned by Airbus Helicopters, AgustaWestland and Fokker Aerostructures. The first prototype conducted its maiden flight in December 1995; the type began to enter operational service with some customers in 2007. As of 2013, a total of thirteen nations have placed orders for the NH90. The NH90 has the distinction of being the first production helicopter to feature entirely fly by wire flight controls.[5] There are two main variants, the Tactical Transport Helicopter (TTH) for army use and the navalised NATO Frigate Helicopter (NFH); each customer typically has various alterations and customisations made to their own NH90 fleets, such as different weapons, sensors and cabin arrangements, to meet their own specific requirements. In early service, the NH90 has suffered several teething issues, which has in turn delayed active deployment of the type by some operators.
