History and development of HürJet
Spoiler
The Hürjet project, initiated in July 2017 as a TAI-funded private endeavor, was officially endorsed by TAI’s board on August 14, 2017. Its goal is to develop a homegrown supersonic jet trainer and light combat aircraft (LCA) to enhance the Turkish Air Force’s training and operational capabilities.
The Conceptual Design Phase (CDP) concluded in April 2018, establishing the aircraft’s core specifications. A mock-up was showcased at the 2018 Farnborough International Air Show. On July 22, 2018, the Turkish Undersecretariat for Defense Industries confirmed an agreement with TAI, formalizing the project’s status to progress development.
Originally planned for February 2019, the Preliminary Design Review (PDR) was delayed to refine the design. The Critical Design Review (CDR), initially set for August 2020, was finalized in March 2021, locking in the aircraft’s design.
On July 22, 2024, TUSAŞ, GE Aviation, and TEI signed a Memorandum of Understanding regarding the integration of the F-404 engine into new Hürjet aircraft variants and the assembly, inspection, and testing of F-404 engines in Turkey. TEI will also provide assembly, maintenance, repair, and overhaul of the engine for Hürjet aircraft and export customers.
On July 28, 2024, the first Hürjet aircraft (tail number #24-001) successfully landed at Torrejón Air Base for evaluation by the Spanish Air Force in connection with Spain’s tender to replace its F-5 aircraft fleet. The flight originated from TUSAŞ facilities in Ankara and reached Madrid after stops in Tekirdağ, Belgrade, Brescia, and Mont-de-Marsan.
On the latter half of 2022, Hürjet entered the final assembly line.
On December 23, 2022, Hürjet was rolled out of the hangar and its first demonstration flight was made.
On March 18, 2023, Hürjet performed its first taxi test on the runway.
On April 25, 2023, Hürjet made its first flight.
On August 16, 2024, the 100th test flight was performed.
On October 21, 2024, it surpassed 1.01 Mach sound dispersion.
On April 17, 2025, HÜRJET reached a speed of 1.2 Mach, leaving behind another speed in the field of supersonic jet training.

HurJet and Spain
On December 20, the Spanish Air Force signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with TAI (Turkish Aerospace Industries) to procure 24 Hurjets to replace its aging fleet of 19 SF-5M, also known as Northrop F-5 Freedom trainers. The Spanish Air Force plans to retire the Northrop F-5s by 2028.
