KAAN fighter jet took off last year Regarding this deal, Erdogan said, 'I wish continued success to all the companies to whom we have given every kind of support to further strengthen our defense industry.' This aircraft, built by Turkiye Aerospace Industries (TAI), took its first flight last year at a speed of 230 knots and 8000 feet. This defense deal is a big deal for Turkey because last month India had exposed its weapons to the world under Operation Sindoor.
