No I think that's targeting sensors and flir is placed above
Bcoz there seems to be 2 sensors below the nose and above the nose
I think they have given a stealth cover over irst to reduce rcs

One above- IRST and one below- EOTS.

 

[jai jaganath]

One above- IRST and one below- EOTS.

I am saying it's not like f-35 eots
Where both irst and targeting sensor are combined

its like f35 eots, but less advanced. The upper eots[irst] helps to track upper hemisphere where lower eots cant reach. f35 das also act like irst sensor, but tfx lacks such capability.[for now].
F35 eots is a advanced version of sniper xr which is similar to litening, and tfx bottom etos also having same function. Don't forget rafale having two eots- tv & iir.

Yeah even das acts like maws and irst also

The F-16 Falcon wing design. Kinda makes sense if you think about it. They have been manufacturing F-16s for several decades and know that wing design inside and out.

No, idea, may be design similar to kai t50. hurjet is similar to kai t/ta/fa-50 or armed saab t7.

prototype before CDR ?

 

[TheBoz]

Almost everything about TAI is unorthodox.

They can't manufacture it unless until US allows. Tech will come from US.

The way the relationship is going, I don’t think Turkey will give a shit about what US wants or not. Besides the IP rights to such technology will have expired by now.

TFX worlds only aircraft with IRIST and EOTS sensors combination even no aircraft is in development today to have such deadly sensor integration

 

[blackjack]

combination of 360 degree radar, infrared, UV detection using IRST with sensor fusion is a must,
