Well we should demand and sue for our money back adjusted for inflation, interest and consider if there are any fines for contract breach that can be applied. But the US-LM contracts are probably watertight.

Bro, they are giving the Turkish contract to Rheinmetall and germans are probably gonna charge $38475634878576 to produce those parts....If the Turks are still building parts perhaps its best to sabotage it and build shit quality.
It would be a great middle finger to the usa.

Now US is asking for extra payments from Turkey for the F35 program that they kicked us out from; Because their cost base has increased due to repositioning manufacturing base elsewhere, that was being handled by Turkish firms.ABD: "Maliyetler arttı, Türkiye F-35 için ek ödeme yapmalı"
S-400 tedarikini gerekçe göstererek Türkiye'yi F-35 Programı'ndan çıkartan ABD, artan maliyetleri sebebiyle Türkiye'nin ek ödeme yapması gerektiğini savunuyor.www.savunmasanayist.com
Never mind the 1.4 billion they owe us; They are asking for further payments now.
They previously also had asked for the monies, related to keeping our undelivered planes in storage.
This is one twisted and crooked logic and mentality.
Typical imperialist attitude.
I am the king! I am always right!
How can we expect to build TFX and Hurjet with their engines? It is totally mind boggling.
Couldn't Turkey make up for the investment in the production line by converting them to build the TF-X?Other than $1.4 B, we’ve set up production line for the program as partners and we’ve lost the contract because of the US government’s decision.
As a result, that investment is also registered as financial loss on top of the infamous $1.4 B.
You know what this reminds me of?
Bullet Fee!
For those of you who are not familiar, it’s an execution practice where the state (for the American readers, that is government) charges the bullet fee to the family of the prisoner who was executed by a single shot behind the head.
Such a disgraceful attitude towards Turkey.
Its time to litigate this matter at the courts. With the Americans signaling they're willing to sell F-35's to India (a nation who uses the S400 complex) there is a solid chance to acquire tangible gains from this.Other than $1.4 B, we’ve set up production line for the program as partners and we’ve lost the contract because of the US government’s decision.

Who needs F-16's when you can go back to the original consortium!
“CAATSA sanctions against Turkey were activated for the purchase and then delivery of the S-400.“ and I had said “on the grounds of a NATO F35 operator using a Russian equipment at the same time and it would have brought a huge risk for the US and the NATO.”CAATSA is not about that, at all. It's purely financial in its word, while being highly political. CAATSA sanctions against Turkey were activated for the purchase and then delivery of the S-400.
Turkey being booted from the F-35 program is not related to the CAATSA itself, no matter how much Americans like to quote
And yet the US officially linked those two separate things together.There isn't anything "on the grounds", is my point. S-400s being accepted is the reason for CAATSA sanctions. Existence of S-400 in Turkey is the chief reason for the Turkey being booted from the program. But this doesn't make the CAATSA sanctions and the boot from JSF linked. They aren't linked. This is a small distinction, but very important.
Basically, yes. They leaned on the link to sell it, but from a legal standpoint, no link exists between CAATSA and the boot from JSF.If you are saying that it was nothing but political mambo jambo by the US to find excuses to kick Turkey out, well that’s something else and I would hardly disagree with that.
You are right. Our cargo fleet far from enough for quite a while now even on a daily mission capacity, let alone in a catastrophic situation.Is there any plans on buying new cargo planes? If we have 17 c-130's and 10 a400m's, this is far from being enough. We should have at least one c-5 or an-124 for extreme lifting ops. and much more hercules and a-400m's
The request consists of 40 new fighters and 80 modernization kits.I am wondering if Eurofighter would cost any less.
Eurofighter is more expensive than the F35.I am wondering if Eurofighter would cost any less.
20bil figure came from WSJ article from january. It's not something new.The request consists of 40 new fighters and 80 modernization kits.
Who said the package would cost 20 billion?? İ suspect.
