Türkiye’s Hürjet Trainer and T-929 Gunship Touch the Sky Plus

This past week, Türkiye’s aerospace industry arguably crossed one of the greatest milestones of its history by carrying out the maiden test flights of its Hürjet trainer and T-929 attack helicopter.

The flights follow the unveiling and ground testing of the Turkish Aerospace Industries’ (TUSAŞ) MMU, i.e., Türkiye’s next-generation fighter aircraft (NGFA) and its flagship aerospace program. TUSAŞ also revealed its ANKA-3 unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV) last month and, in turn, carried out ground tests for its swept-wing stealth drone around the same time as the Hürjet and T-929 flights.
