Turkey practices launching its Russian S-400s against US-made F-16 jets
In the face of US warnings, Turkey has begun drilling the operation of the S-400 air defense batteries purchased from Russia against Turkish Air Force US-made F-16 fighter jets. The new S-400 batteries are stationed at the Murted military base 10km west of Ankara. They practiced shooting down F-16s as they made simulated strikes. The Trump administration has threatened Turkey with more sanctions if puts the Russian air defense system to operational use after becoming the first NATO member to buy it.
I don’t understand what the big problem with Turkey having a system that clearly can’t stop Israel and her f-15, 16, etc. I can’t remember anything Russia has built to work as good as claimed…
Tell that to US
Hahaha, LOL Aerospace engineer !!!! Have you designed even a wooden toy jet fighter before? I can’t and you?
Russian made SAM batteries did fairly well during the early stage of the Yom Kippur War. Only after IDF ground onslaught put those batteries out of commission were the Israeli planes finally able to operate freely.
SAM batteries did fairly well, but who won Yom Kippur War in 1973 no doubt? Lot has changed since 73…
It is not the point. The point is that Russian made weaponry, properly operated, will make lots of difference.
Properly operated is the key. Turkeys are not capable of using the tech since anyone in their military with half a brain is dead or in prison (==dead). The sultan demands the utmost loyalty – which excludes using one’s brain.
Actually the IDF did not turn that war around until they had retreated out of range of those SAMs…
That’s because you are ill-informed. Go on Youtube and look for

Russian missiles shot down 5000 American aircraft in Vietnam half a century ago.
205 U.S aircraft lost to surface-to-air missiles during the Vietnam War. U.S lost 3,374 aircraft in combat. Where did you get 5000, Tommy’s mom’s basement?
erdogan the muslim nazi pig dictator out of NATO
Remember the mig 25 Firefox, turned out to be fake…. same will be for s400
American fear of the S400 is justified and based on reality. We all know Russia has not exactly activated the S400 against Israel jets.
…because as soon as the S400 radar is activated, Israel F16s can lock onto the signal and destroy it.
and how do they destroy it? it won’t be a duck shoot like against housing and football hooligans
May want to google HARM Missile there buckwheat…
What science is there in a wooden toy?…..no system is unbeatable, it’s important to note that intermediary in missiles systems operation is electronics………hack it and you can well penetrate.
This being the case. Then why is Turkey, still part of NATO?
During the reporting period, the market in our country sank 2.2%, to 8.617 million smartphones. In monetary terms, the market dipped 3.1% to $ 2.029 billion. Together with the usual “dialers,” the mobile phone market amounted to 10.646 million units.

Do not mess with Turkeys before Thanksgiving!
Graet story. Funny!!
Threat of more SANCTIONS – FUNNIER!!!
Erdogan is going to do everything in his power to overturn the Ottoman defeat of 1917… https://raptureandendtimes.com/2019/09/20/erdogan-rising-the-ottoman-empire-strikes-back/
Turkey plays both sides but is not an ally to either.
I believe the fear is this, even the new stealth engineered jets do put off some signals on the radar. So if you have a stealth and the s-400 it doesn’t take long to figure out which little blip is theirs. Once that is known I am sure Russia and China both would pay huge amounts of money for that information.
Now you can see why US SHOULD NOT SELL F35 TO TURKEY. TURKEY AN ENEMY THAT HAS NO COJONE. TURKEY IS WRONG TO THINK THAT HE CAN DO ANYTHING AFTER RECEIVING THE TURKEY IS NOTHING FACE TO IAF
Erdogan seems to be able to get away with publicly challenging Trump.
Turkey Boasting about a System that does not worry the F-35 is an example of seeking more help from Washington on other matters. So Far more like “No Mas” on a TV Boxing Match Turkey’s Gone with the WINS!
Israel would never have a valid reason to attack Turkey with any weapon system. While Ergodan is an a hole and Islamist, it’s not supporting or facilitating terror ops directly against it.
Why NATO let Turkey into NATO as a bulwark against the East, was a huge mistake. Incirlick air base?
S 400’s are probably good but probably def-eatable by newer US jets and all of this just a show to sell more weapons to one another, hence why they were not turned on in Syria, as the truth would be revealed,
Turkey under Er-DOG-an is a Trojan Horse in NATO.
Kick Turkey OUT of NATO.
It is amazing that it has not yet happened. Several years ago Turkey joined the SCO while remaining a member of NATO. Even Bismarck knew very well that if a member of a treaty has double loyalties it is highly dangerous, even for the perpetrator, in the event that the conflicting alliances are put to the test. That Turkey has not been sharply criticised and put on notice immediately Erdogan took Turkey into the SCO is an indication of how soft and corrupt the NATO nations have become. The EU are almost flat on the faces with regards to Turkey. The US President is now calling them out, and they don’t like it, but they cannot stop him sanctioning Turkey.
@ Arik. Your post is pure conjecture.
I CAN SEE TRUMP TELLING NATO NO MORE FUNDING UNTIL TURKEY IS KICKED OUT OF NATO
Netanyahu is a Desperado on his last legs – Israel had to get a war on Iran as a escape hatch for Israeli apartheid going down the drain, and it didn’t happen, sanity prevailed in the world over the Israel lobby and Israel
The Desperado Netanyahu bet the farm … and lost … So he doubled down and bet the Israel lobby farm as well… and lost everything. The whole racket – gone. It was all a con game and now the con-artist himself brought it all down around his ears
1P1V1S is the cure for Israeli apartheid –
Everybody and your Grandma knows it – it’s time to prosecute the Kahanists starting with you know who.
Hmmm – ‘You know who’ rhymes with Netanyahu – that’s funny
1P1V1S = 1N1A1K1B1A
Happy Nakba!
I’m sure the Russians have tested the S400 in Syria.
Natzi war on the humanity would not have been possible without participation of turkeystan. The huns profiteered by supplying the naztzis with rare resources until the end of the war. They switched sides just days before the reich defeat. The treachery continues.
The S-400 system is clearly pointed against Israel. erDOGan is kissing iranian @ss. Now Turkey and Iran have a common enemy – Israel.
No one actually knows how good the S-400 really is. It really isn’t fully battle-tested against the best opponents flying really good mission profiles. It’s probably a competent system and if the mission profile for an aircraft is poor for evading air defense then it is highly likely the S-400 can successfully engage.
Oh, and it would be stupid if Turkey didn’t use its F-16s for exercises with the S-400.
