Türkiye begins development of navalized HÜRJET carrier-capable variant

Türkiye has officially started work on a shipborne HÜRJET variant, adding carrier recovery features (e.g., arresting hook) and structural/landing-gear strengthening plus marinization for salt/humidity/corrosion. This represents a concrete move from concept to an actual carrier aviation capability aligned with the future MUGEM aircraft carrier air wing.
