Türkiye’s KAAN fighter jet begins pre-flight taxi tests
Baku, July 31, AZERTAC
Türkiye’s domestically developed KAAN fighter jet has begun pre-flight taxi tests, Anadolu Agency reported citing new footage released on Friday.
Turkish Aerospace Industries shared a video on its NSosyal account showing the aircraft’s latest prototype moving along a runway.
The prototype, which has yet to receive its final paint scheme, was seen conducting taxi tests as part of ground trials ahead of future flight testing.
KAAN’s first prototype completed its maiden flight in 2024.
Following the initial flight, the program entered a new phase with the production of additional prototypes that will continue the aircraft’s flight-test campaign.
Testing and development activities are continuing with the P1 and P2 prototypes, which feature a more advanced systems architecture.
