""Shortly before the second flight, TUSAŞ announced that the second prototype P1 would make its maiden flight at the end of 2025. The new prototype incorporates design changes, including size management.
The new design is notably slightly smaller, with reduced length and wingspan. TUSAŞ has published these new specifications as 20.3 m and 13.4 m, respectively, which are smaller than the values of P0. The height has also been reduced from six meters to five meters.
New test facilities will also be built for the future tests of the prototyping phase:
1-Electromagnetic compatibility in a fully anechoic environment,
2-Large-scale structural strength and fatigue test facilities,
3-Engine/APU integration and qualification test setups,
4-Hydraulic, fuel, electrical, pneumatic, and avionics integration and qualification test setups,
5-Lightning strike safety testing,
6-Climate system design and integration laboratories,
7-Near-field radar cross-section measurement,
8-Development test centres for indigenous components (e.g., avionics computers, helmets, generators, pumps, landing gear, hooks, gearboxes, oxygen/nitrogen systems, etc.).
More prototypes will be built for said tests, with the third prototype P2 under aassembly.
Aside from the prototype phase developments, TUSAŞ is drawing potential new routes for KAAN. One of these routes came to light with the Turkish Navy Design Project Office Manager Captain Hakan Uçar’s recent interview with the Sabah newspaper regarding the MUGEM aircraft carrier.
Uçar stated that the Design Project Office and TUSAŞ are discussing a possible naval variant of KAAN for use onboard the future aircraft carrier, which is planned to use an array of unmanned and manned platforms (Bayraktar TB3, Anka-III, Hürjet LCA, Kızılelma, helicopters, etc.).
To sum everything up, the first year has been fruitful for KAAN; with the first prototype close to its third flight, the second prototype P1 being fleshed out towards the end of 2024, the third prototype entering production, and discussions for a naval version to be used onboard the MUGEM aircraft carrier taking place.""
