Iranian military engine development news and updates

What stage is Iran at turbine metallurgy wise ?


4 years ago my dormitory mate , who was graduating in Mechanics of manufacturing and production field , talked about his scientific tour to MAPNA Turbine Engineering and Manufacturing Company (TUGA) located in industrial city of Karaj.
He told me about the manufacturing of a Superalloy blade being produced there which can be used in electric , nuclear , gas fueled power plants. 4 years ago!.
Our problem is not manufacturing engines or their high TECH requirements but the main problem is mass production of those engines coz it needs some years of financing. I meant we have built them many years ago. Overhauling the legendary & lovely Tomcats is a God dam GIANT AND BIG witness for you. The only remaining things of Tomcat is probably it's air-frame obviously it's other components should be changed after 40 years otherwise it was unable to fly.
A view of MAPNA company :

You can make Gas Turbines as heavy as you want it's a bit different when it comes to Fighter Airframes & jet engines that have to fly
Iran is already producing Gas turbines

There are different grades of titanium that Iran can not produce
There are different grades of carbine fibers that Iran cant produce
There are different grades of nickel that Iran can't produce
There are different grades of Aluminium-titanium composites that Iran can't produce
Etc, etc

A Fighters Air Frame is it's most expensive part of a fighter aircraft mainly due to material costs

Iran chose the F-5 because of it's low titanium requirements & lower grade composite requirements

Iran today is producing gas turbines as complex as the MGT-30 which is far more complex in design than any turbojet engine in Iran's inventory

So yes metallurgy remains the main problem!

I cannot see any flag under your name VEVAK. Anyway Google this maybe would change your mind :
تولید-آلیاژهای-تیتانیوم-نخستین-بار-ایران
Iran has produced Zirconium superalloys now you say that Iran cannot produce Aluminium's superalloys!!!!!!!
I didn't need your guidance about gas-Turbines , coz i wanted to talk about it's Technological requirements and also it is much easier then producing other Alloys.

Iran chose F-5 not becoz of it's lack of technology but becoz it is the elementary study field for producing heavier and more capable fighters. USA didn't begin from F-22 raptor! USA's first try was P-59B. I know we have a long way to catch them. So don't be n@ts we had to begin from somewhere and F-5 was the best choice for us , cheaper and easier to shift. And as you said we have already produced your mentioned Superalloys however in small scales and the problem , mass production , of course is still remaining.
Now tell me VEVAK. Which one is harder :
1) Manufacturing air-frame.
2) Keeping alive Tomcat's Troubled engines.

Manufacturing the F-14 Airframe both in cost and technology due to the materials required to produce it

F-14 has large areas that are pure titanium

and yes Iran does produce titanium, nickel, aluminum alloy but if you knew anything you would know that these alloys come in different grades and Iran can't produce high grade titanium or high grade nickel or high grade carbine fiber or high grade titanium aluminum composites etc etc etc

The titanium requirement for an F-14 is almost the same weight of the entire aircraft and about 65% of it turns into scrape and gets wasted

F-5 requires the lowest amount of titanium among any supersonic fighters in the world and even when Iran started producing the F-5 the Titanium Aluminum composite that was required was not being produced in the country and again the titanium composite used in the F-5 is easier to produce than any other supersonic fighter Iran had in it's fleet even the
F-4

Go 1 min into the video

Same with Iran's Fatteh sub which goes back to Metallurgy was the main problem! Iran's defense minister goes on TV and say's we had to rebuild it because we didn't have access to some base materials mavadeh avvaleyeh....

shoma ha hay mekhayn chosi beyan vali man ahlesh neestam I'd rather hear the truth and I'd rather have a defense minister like Dehghan that tells it rather than yeh mardeh bi orzeh dorogh gu like Vahidi

And yes Iran may technically know how to produce these materials in a lab but that's a far cry from having to tools and facilities to carryout an industrial production

What I know is that the problems you are talking about are solved or very close to get solved!

 

[VEVAK]

What I know is that the problems you are talking about are solved or very close to get solved!

And I said as much in my previous quotes! It's a problem that's being resolved but still remains a problem.

Iran started producing Carbon fiber and is actively trying to increase the grade with carbon fiber the more threads you can put in each Square inch the higher the grade

Iran in the year 2000 practically stopped exporting it's titanium ore black sand and starting working towards domestic production of titanium alloys and has been working on increasing the quality & quantity

Same with Titanium Aluminum composites

And other super alloys

An F-5 requires about 900 lb of titanium which is mainly used in the process of creating the titanium aluminum composite required in it's airframe VS an F-14 that requires over 40,000 lb of titanium that's 40X of that of an F-5

Iran also has another problem and that's corruption because exporting these alloys will be fast cash to some vs a fighter that's not likely to get exported so unless Iran's government totally banns the export of strategic alloys companies will lobby and bribe their way against the production of a more advanced fighter.

با من حرف نزن وطن فروش. چه جوی بین این جماعت خارجی ایجاد کردید که میگن ایرانی ها کاملا با نظام و انقلابشون ضد هستند؟
هیچ پوخی که نیستی آبرو برا کشورم نذاشتید. یه مشت ترک کثیف میان به رهبرمون فحش میدن و میگن شماها اصلا مسلمان نیستید.
این ترک جرات گفتن همچین کلماتی رو نداشت شما ها اینا رو اینطوری کردید.
قسم به اون خدایی که آریایی خلقم کرد نمی بخشمت
من آنچنان اعتقادات مذهبی ندارم ولی خامنه ای پدر ماست. چرا اجازه دادید تو این سایت بهش توهین بشه؟
این پیر مرد بزرگ کی علیه منافع ملی ما حرف زده که اینقدر علیهش اینجا موضع گرفتید؟
وضعیتی رو به وجود آوردید که پاکستانی های درپیت میان به خمینی فحش میدن. گیریم هیچ اعتقادی به نظام هم نداریم ولی آخرش هممون ایرانی هستیم که.
گرچه تو ایرانی نیستی تو حتی اگه لازم باشه به کوروش هم فحش میدی تا اینا برات به به و چه چه کنند

چرت و پرت نوشتی که وطن فروش. یار غار ترک های کثیف. ما جنگنده آشغال هم سوار میشیم اگه ساخت وطن باشه
فرق آدمی مثل من و تو همینه تو فکر میکنی مرغ همسایه غازه
شعورت نمی رسه که نباید از نظر نظامی به هیچ کشوری وابسته بود. آخرین توانت اینه که بگی 300 میلیلارد دلار رو خورده ان. خخخخخخ
اصلا فهمیدی 300 میلیارد دلار یعنی چی؟! حالا کی این پول رو خورده؟ لااقل صفرهاش رو بنویس. کاش ماهمچین پولی رو داشتیم تو کشور. شعورت در همین حده که بگی 300 میلیارد دلار رو خورده ان. فساد حتما هست و باید با فساد مبارزه بشه هر کی باشه.
فاسد چه پسر جنتی باشه چه پسر هاشمی آخرش گوشه هولوف دونیه.
وطن فروش بدبخت. برو با ترک های عثمانی هم صدا شو و به ایران فحش بده. به جهنم
شماها حاضرین عرب ها به ایران تجاوز کنن بعدش دست و هورا بکشید و داد بزنید که دیدید ما راست می گفتیم!!هه
درسته امکاناتمون در حد دلاوران ارتشی و خلبانامون نیست ولی داریم با جان و دل سعی می کنیم یه جنگنده وطنی بسازیم. بعد موتور توربوفن سنگین ملی روی شماها هم کم میشه فوق فوقش 3 سال با اون لحظه فاصله داریم
قدرت واقعی ایران آدمایی مثل تهرانی مقدم و سلیمانی هستن که دل مردم منطقه رو به دست آوردن. به لطف خدا هم داریم تجهیزات نظامی رو به شان مردممون نزدیک می کنیم.
حالا برو خوت رو بتکون

Sources about what? Titanium, Nickel, Aluminum & Carbine fiber come in different grades?

If you don't know that much then you don't know much!!!

Or that Iran produces all of them but at lower grades? that you can easily google for your self

IRGC should be happy about this!!! IRGC should back the FATF!!!
IRGC by law has the right to be involved in Iran's economy! And I'm happy and appreciative that they are! I believe the Artesh should also be allowed to do the same!
IRGC at the end of the day build things and develops new technologies for the country, everything from roads, tunnels, dams, telecommunication, weapons, etc and they have truly helped in the industrial development of the country! If every year their net income comes to $12-$15B and lets say the top 1000 officers and personal take home an average of $2 million per year (Noosheh jooneshoon choon zahmat e sho kesheedan) the rest goes directly into increasing Iran's Power!!

VS scum that sit back contribute nothing and make billions produce nothing and are nothing but a leach!!!

beja ona poola bayad beh Artesh o Sepah bereh keh orzasho daran and they will contribute in the development of more advanced weapons more advanced Jet engines and fighters.....

I wonder whats the relation of FATF with current government as far as I'm aware all the work on it is done at the time of previous government and previous Parliament even it passed guardian council at the time of previous government .

then you're informed of nothing.
all of anti money laundry laws which you are referring to doesn't say anything about FATF, It's like saying we fight with terrorism and suddenly you say so we join America to fight our security forces which are considered terrorists by Americans.
It's just chicanery.

Yeah, IRGC must back sanctioning itself and all of it's subsidiary companies. till now they were sanctioned by foreign banks which were ineffective, from now on, they will be sanctioned by the Iranian banks too to make sanctions more effective.
thank to all traitors.

no matter what, government now can do nothing , you must complain to the one that signed and ratified this without knowing what they are signing .
right know the only way to stop this is that the parliament and guardian council that made this mess move forward and fix it or supreme leader intervene and fix this nonsense.
I don't know any other solution , if you knew another legal way to fix it please tell me.

1st off take a good look at FATF countries it has nothing to do with America

Faghat keshvar ha badbakht, dictatori o ghaltagh jozvesh neestan mesleh Israel, Arabestan, Afghanistan tamomeh keshvar ha badbakhteh Afrihgaiii

va as onvar tamoomeh keshvar ha pool dar ya democrat e jahaneh avval jozveshoonan

By law the IRGC has the right to be involved in Iran's economy and it's no one else's business it's our law. And every country has it's covert operations it jeopardizes nothing!!!

Hezbollah is a political organization in Lebanon and we can fund them all we want

Take a good look at the people that are against it! Jannati, Khatami, Velayati all Ahmadi supporter all filthy rich!!!
And honestly I don't see Sepah generals complaining about it and the ones that do are verbally outspoken supporters of Ahmadinejad
WHY IS THAT???????

FATF has nothing to do with America!!! China, Russia, India, Japan, Brazil, Argentina, Germany, France
This has nothing to do with America!!! faghat dosdan pooldaran k nemekhan.... hagheeghatesham hameeneh k hast!!!
