The first prototype of the TFX is planned to roll out of hangar on 18 March 2023. The first flight is planned for two years later after ground tests have been completed. The date of 18 March is important for Turkey because it symbolizes Turkey’s independence and victory in the Gallipoli War, the year 2023 is also highly symbolic because it is the centennial of the Turkish Republic.
