Türkiye’s KAAN Fighter Aircraft Takes Off on First Test Flight
The sky is the limit for Türkiye’s defence industry. That's the view of the country's top aerospace company, which saw the successful test flight of the country's first indigenous fighter. Dubbed KAAN, which means 'king of kings' in the old Turkic language, the fifth-generation jet has high ambitions. But what set off its need in the first place? Zeynep Gokce reports.
Strait Talk, hosted by Ayse Suberker, is TRT World’s programme that features in-depth analysis of Türkiye’s role in the world.
