TEI stands for Tusas Engine Industries. In the 1980s, through an agreement with GE of the USA, they manufactured a part of the F110 engines.
-It also builds parts for Snecma and P&W.
From Appendix 6: In the main text, the agreements of Tusas Engines Industries (TEI) with GE for the F-100 and F-110 engines of the F-16 of the Turkish Air Force (the Türk Hava Kuvvleteri) are mentioned.
-Later it was expanded to the CT7-9C of the CN-235 and the TF33 of P&W.
-It collaborates in the JASF program and in the LHTEC CT-800 helicopter engines, independently of providing maintenance service, Overhauls, etc. to other engines such as the J-79 or building parts of the Honda-GE HF-120.
-Or the Makila engine from Turbomeca installed in the AS 532 helicopter.

-It also participates in the development and testing of the engine for the European military aircraft A-400M, the TP400-D6.
“TP400-D6 engine of about 12,000 hp”
-The ground tests of this engine were done in Ajalvir, Spain, at ITP (and INTA). The flight tests were also done in Seville. See Europrop.
“TP400-D6 trials”
-At this point we finally come to an original design from TEI. A small turboprop for the pilotless aircraft of the TAI, the Turna.
-And the TEI engine is the TEI-TP-1X.
-We see it below, it is a turboprop with a pusher propeller. The engine is installed in the rear of the vehicle.

-And another virtual image of the same TEI-TP-1X engine.
“Better view of the engine”
From Appendix 9: In this year 2012 a small turbine, turbojet from this factory, the IHA-8, has come out.
“The IHA-8 for UAV”
-The TEI in English Tusas Engine Industies, (TUSAŞ Motor Sanayii A.Ş.). Sometimes Turk Engine Ind.
From Appendix 12: In the main text we have the IHA-8 turbojet of this brand.
“The IHA-8 is intended for UAV aircraft”
-Now the brand has presented a 5-cylinder Diesel engine for the same use, in UAVs and Drones.
-The first assembly for which it is intended is the UAV “Anka”.
-The engine's power is reduced from 165 HP to 155 and weighs 230 Kg (in another source it is mentioned that it is based on a Ford model).
