I Have listed the national origin as "Turkish, United Kingdom". Due to the fact that UK based BAE is providing design oversight and UK based Rolls Royce is providing propulsion. In addition, a recent statement from BAE says "At its peak, hundreds of Turkish and UK engineers will collaborate on the TF-X programme helping to support collaboration on the skills, technology and technical expertise required to deliver the programme." http://www.baesystems.com/en/article/bae-systems-signs-heads-of-agreement-for-a-future-contract-with-turkish-aerospace-industries-for-tf-x-programme If anyone has information to prove this is overwhelmingly a Turkish project they are encouraged to post it here before editing.

I've removed it, again. No one is disputing UK involvement, but it doesn't rise to the level national origin, which usually means prime contractors in both countries. We also don't usually don't count engine providers, as the engines are covered separately in their own articles. A comparable example is the AIDC F-CK-1 Ching-kuo, which has heavy involvement by US companies, but the US isn't included in the national origin field, and shouldn't be. - BilCat (talk) 00:26, 5 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Which Engine?
While an agreement is signed with Eurojet engine manufacturer in 2015, which seems final, other parties are still vying for this engine as of 2018. EJ200 link says it is the engine of choice, and then says it was not chosen. Can someone clear this up?
