Ankara threatened to turn off NATO radar in case of failure of the Americans to supply F-35

49
In response to threats by the US Air Force to refuse to supply the latest F-35 fighter aircraft due to the Ankara’s purchase of the Russian C-400 system, the Turkish authorities announced that they would consider disabling the NATO AN-TPY-2 NATO radar, which has been in the Republic since 2012. Reports about it Look with reference to Defense News.





On Wednesday, the US Air Force spokesman said that if Turkey still acquired the Russian C-400 anti-aircraft system, it would not only be allowed to connect to similar NATO systems, but could also refuse to supply the F-35 fighter jets.

The AN-TPY-2 radar was built by Americans in the Anatolian region of Malatya to protect Israel from ballistic missiles. According to the report, it is “capable of detecting all types of flying objects at high altitudes and distances up to 1 thousand kilometers.”

Ankara then allowed the deployment of the radar to the disappointment of Russia and Iran. Thanks to a powerful locator, NATO has the ability to monitor all the western territories of Iran. If Turkey decides to turn off the radar, Israel will lose its early warning system for launching missiles.

Earlier it was reported that the Ministry of Defense of Turkey in the 2030 year plans to get the fifth-generation X-NUMX fighters F-116.

      All this is drooling and snot. Turkey is an ally of NATO and the United States and primarily an ally of Israel.
      Suspended policy of the Russian Federation and the actions of the military of the Russian Federation in Syria, due to collusion
      A guarantor with each of these three, who arranged, as it were, a tantrum. Erdogan is a rash,

      yes, as the Turks ... sent the Turks from the Yankees, they will continue to please the owner. buying a pair of complexes does not mean anything. and South Korea took tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, and Cyprus and Greece acquired something there. but everyone will dance to the bait of the States as before. it’s like with S. Arabia - they concluded a couple of contracts, and everyone immediately yelled that everyone, the Arabs are now all for us. not everything is so simple in politics and in the East. here, as in the British proverb "England has no permanent allies, there are only permanent interests"

              A radar operating only in the centimeter range and seeing no more than 1000 km is the last century.

    Turks burn ...
    By virtue of geography, the Turks have many more arguments to dry the US brain. Following the radar will be the Inzhirlik base ... and the rest of NATO radars. But the United States also has a lot of arguments in the form of spare parts for military equipment. But Spare parts are a solvable question - there is no geography.
