MMRCA 2.0: News & Discussions

[mamamia12]

Because Erdogan randomly decided to buy S400 and tick off his country's American masters.

Remember, Turkey was such a (((trusted ally))) that they were onboard the F35 program and one of the first customers, onboard as in they would make parts that go into the F35, such were their homosexually close relations.

Now Erdogan also maintained a stealthy approach of behaving like a typical dhandhomaxing politician, but after he tamed the Turkish military( famous for coups ) in 2016, he showed his true green colors and picked up a fight with Uncle Sam and now France.

The result is now that their German( US vassal ) and American stuff based Armed forces are in peril.
The Russian is too busy, the quality of Chinese maal is unknown and they are in a fight with the Frenchman over Armenia

I mean iam asking about why they overlooked F-16 replacement.

Because they were a US vassal earlier, so the eventual replacement for F16 would be the F35.

Now since they want to be Caliphate 2.0, and they have soured relations with everyone, they are in panik to diversify their fleet since no F35 will be sold to them.
Thier pilots are also trained only on F16, because such was the dog-like loyalty to the US, they never bothered to diversify their fleet.

So for total 120 numbers (40 new and 80 old upgrade) they are paying almost 200 million each.
What kind of rip off is this? It is surely biggest scam ever happened

Seems that there is a great amount of weapons in his deal.

But on the other side Turkey is blocked. The USA may offer a bad deal, Turkey is nearly forced to take it....

It is a scam.
Now they wouldn't even get these F16s, Erdogan had to block Sweden or Finlands accession into NATO, and in exchange for allowing the accession of Sweden iirc, America offered the Khilafa the privelege to buy some more F16s at an inflated price.

Reason is the Turki Airforce only has F16s in it's inventory as a current gen fighter, they also have some F4s but those are vintage af.

They have an ongoing panga with France so no Rafales for them, no 4 country khichdi Eurofighter either and the Russians are too busy with their war to sell the Turks anything.

The Regional Context Of Turkey’s Eurofighter Bid

It’s not inconceivable that Ankara will push for a Eurofighter deal even if Washington approves the F-16 sale in the near future.

Meanwhile, the chad Greek airforce has F16s, Rafales and F35s on order.

Since Erdoggy took over and did the S400 wala drama, Turkey has become a dhobi ka kutta since almost all of their stuff is US or German

And look at the numbers of fighter jets between Greece and Turkey. Greece has managed to achieve near parity in numbers with Turkish Air Force. Once Hellenic Air force phase out the Phantoms and induct the F-35s, Hellenic Air Force will have a dominating edge over Turkish Air Force despite Turkish fighter programs such as TAI TFX-Kaan stealth fighter (it is not even completed or inducted yet)

The program will never be completed without US approval as they are using US engine.
The F16 deal is joke TBH, they don't have 23 billion their economy is banged up badly

this is not new it was even apparent when we gave 36 G2G order that 114 future order for MRCA whatever would be a challenge giving to their production choking, and then we saw massive orders by UAE, Egypt and all in very short span of time further elevating it

perhaps that Nagpur factory whatever is just a way to reduce this choke by not only offering supplies for IAF (and IN probably) but other 'friendly' customers of the jet
