We're prioritizing Turkish missiles over US? For what platform?

While Turkish missile industry has made great strides I think it's an error to swap highly matured AAM like the winders and amraams with Turkish sourced analogue.

Is there any indication that Indonesia will do this?

Doubting if AAs are up for sale yet. Priority is to supply needs of TurAF and replenish the stocks.

Yet those missiles are compatible and works like a charm, unless you are operating Block 70 or Block 50+ (which i am not sure with the latter if any Block 50+ from TurAF inventory was equipped or to be equipped with Turkish AA), which you don't.

Or guidance kits, targeting pod and A2Gs are in use for years and operational and new weapons continues to be certified.

Meet 401th fleet of TurAF dedicated for tests and experiments. They are not developing a weapon on ground and slapping it on F-16s and sending it to combat zone right away.

People like him sometimes take a look at wikipedia to find out TurAF is the second largest F-16 operator after USAF.

We're on process to upgrade to Viper standard (Block 70/72), so let's stay with Amraam + 9X.

Or lobby US to let us to use Turkish missiles which is unlikely.
