It was talked about during the talks with Nuland last year.

Thank you. Like I said I forgot when it was.

Would be better to sell it to some central Asian country or transfer it to Libya or Syria so they have capable ad.
If the Russian bitch about trying to block the sale just threaten them with giving it to nato/us it’s not like they can afford to cut economic ties with us-> we have all the cards

Trump eyes lifting sanctions, potential sale of prized fighter jet to Turkey

President Donald Trump is considering lifting sanctions on Turkey and resuming the sale of fighter jets to Turkey after a call with President Recep Erdogan.

I can't say I like the idea of getting too cozy with the US and Europe and making a habit of buying military equipment again. The idea of "necessity is the mother of invention" caused the meteoric rise of Turkish defense industry with a speed not seen elsewhere. We have done what we did because we had to. In the times we had the possibility to buy off-the-shelf from abroad, the domestic industry suffered. What starts now as a good supplement purchase to Kaan may in the end cause Kaan to be cancelled with rising costs and/or shifting political environment.

Being friendly enough to get F110 engines is desirable but purchasing too many foreign fighter planes becomes worrying. I kind of support keeping the S400, not because we will get any value out of that crap but to maintain the sense of urgency and necessity in our defense industry that propelled us to achieve so much in so little time. Otherwise we may go back to snorting foreign purchases like cocaine.

Sell S400 Syria to protect them from terror state, then get F110 and F404 engines from USA, good deal!

 

[Khagan1923]

There will be a meeting in April. Then we will most likely hear of an agreement. S-400 will be most likely dismantled and stored somewhere with US-Presence.


Selling it is no option for the government as they need the ties to the Russians to be stable and Russia will never agree to have the system be transfered to another country. Maybe Azerbaijan but even there I would expect backlash.

Russia does not want the TurAF to have the F-35.

-------------------------------------------

40-42 F-35A for the Air Force (good chance we could see Aircrafts meant for the USAF be moved to TurAF)

8-12 F-35B for the Navy (unlikely now maybe in the future could also become an option for MUG)


What else I am interested in is seeing if the 40 F-16V purchase will stand, there are rumours that LM has offered an substantial discount for the aircraft after the EF purchase gained momentum.

Syria already had S400s, which couldn't do shit against IAF. They would casually come all the way to Aleppo to bomb the city.

 

[Sanchez]

No. Russia had S-400s in Syria and Russia also had an agreement with Israel to "not hamper IDF air campaign over Syria" against Iran.

Syria had S-200 and maybe some S-300 but no S-400,you are wrong.

 

[Ryder]

Give it to Azerbaijan or the Central Asian countries.

S400 alone will not do any difference for Syria. They need a long-term strategy to build up a multi-layered air defence to deal with terrorist aggressions.

 

[Saithan]

Let's wait and see. We're used to being fooled, so focus on what matters and that is our national security atm

 

[Oublious]

Monkey model for us aahahaha...


F16V same shit...

Kaan is our solution....

Then the US will disable the F35s
As long as the US can control the F35 fleets of any nation that buys it, it is a trojan horse that hoen should buy

Donation to TRNC, thank you for your nice gift.

If not Syria i was thinking about TRNC or Azerbaijan. If we support S400 with our layered air defence system it would be so effective, no matter which country we give such a system to, it will make a difference in its region.

 

[Saithan]

If we have bases in TRNC, then I can't see why we shouldn't have it there and use it. We would need to implement other AD systems as well, but it would give a pretty good coverage.

But like I said, let's wait and see no need to kickstart talking just to talk. let's wait and see how some dices land before we keep rolling our dices nonstop, hoping for miracles.
