Ankara: Deployment of a C-400 ZRS will begin in the fall of 2019




According to the minister, at present in Turkey there is a stage of selection of personnel, which in the future will serve the Russian anti-aircraft systems. The selected military personnel at the beginning of 2019 of the year will go to Russia for training, so that by the time of the deployment of the first complexes in October 2019 of the year, be fully prepared for operation of the C-400.

In addition, Acar once again "reassured" the US and Europe by acquiring Russian C-400 systems, Turkey is not going to cause them concern, but is acquiring systems because of the need to own modern air defense systems, since the United States and Europe are not going to sell their .

Earlier it was reported that the production of C-400 air defense systems for Turkey should be completed in May 2019 of the year, after which deliveries will begin, although the beginning of the 2020 of the year was called the initial timeline. The postponement of delivery occurred after the personal request of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

      They fought with the Germans, millions of dead - Mercedes and BMW, they sanctioned us, and we are LNG2, with the Japanese - Nissan and Hitachs, in Afghanistan, the Yankees and the British raised terrorists - come democracy, the West will help us.
      Turkey sponsored terrorists in the Caucasus and received millions of tourists and construction sites in Russia .....

      and who will replace Erdogan

      The problem is that Erdogan is not forever ... he can be replaced by an outspoken Russophobe with the ensuing consequences ... and now imagine if our S-400s are turned against our country ... what will we do then ?.

          Now imagine if Israel agrees with Erdogan to conduct military exercises with the aim of exploring the real capabilities of the S-400 ... and then they can start using the information gathered to press Syria’s air defense and maybe our air defense too.

          Short-sighted is how our politicians act in this matter.

        There are no friends in politics, no brothers, only companions. Complexes initially buy against us, but do not they know this in the Kremlin or Moscow Region? Everything is calculated, and if there are minuses (and they are), then the pluses will be more serious.

            Who are you going to believe? Yes, the Kremlin fraternity is ready to sell everything to everyone, just to get grandmas. Really did not understand it yet.
            These do not understand that our weapons can be directed against us.

        In Turkey there is an American base and Turkey is a member of NATO.
        So the Americans are not in danger in the near future.

      You can be calm anyway. Without Russia, how will Turkey serve them ??? Everything is made in the Russian Federation, where will the missiles be taken from when they will end, who will carry out maintenance, who will repair, etc. ?? Russia will stop and everything will turn into rubbish. The only reason is that you have Kalash’s hand, if you don’t have cartridges for it and oil with a rag for minimal care?. In Russia, everyone understands perfectly.

          when they’ll say exactly without it, then we’ll believe. And what are the storage conditions and shelf life, missiles are not eternal.

    Maybe in the combined-arms-tank-landing Turks invite? Then in 20 years we will have a pro-Russian general. The main thing is that good specialists should work with them.

      and who told you that there was a pro-American general in Turkey ???? On the contrary, they were the most ardent anti-Americanists, since they studied and knew perfectly well what the West was. And most importantly, then these officers fought with the Kurds, behind whom Europe and the USA stood, who financed them, they transferred weapons, how they all felt at ease in Germany. All movements in the military-industrial complex began before Erdogan. They simply looked at things practical and had to do some things. They joined NATO not because of love, but because of the danger of an invasion of the USSR. They clearly understood their significance and did not give a back in Cyprus, but defended their fellow countrymen despite sanctions.
      Do you think the officers of the CIS countries are pro-Russian because of their studies in the Russian Federation? Not the other way around, since while studying in Russia they came across the realities of chock, hachik, narrow-eyed, etc. They can be pro-Russian because of corruption, because of the country's dependence on the Russian Federation .
      In pure love you can attract only those peoples who are mentally and culturally close to Russia. Also from the United States, Turks and Arabs will not be pro-American because of their studies, other factors play.

    but TASS says something else.

    Already in March-May next year, all the components of the command post of the regiment and two divisions should be exhibited at special technological sites at the Kapustin Yar training ground, in May-August, docking and adjustment work should be carried out on the equipment, after which it will be transferred to the Almaz- Antey "for subsequent shipment to Turkey in October," the source said.

    “The deadlines are very tough given the simultaneous work on the manufacture of elements of the second regimental set of S-400 for China,” the source added.

    The interlocutor of the agency noted that the contract is a supply one and does not provide for their licensed production at Turkish enterprises.

    «The contract for S-400 is purely supply, it does not contain a provision on technology transfer or licensed production in Turkey. The equipment will be delivered ready-madee, ”the source said.

    In addition, the S-400 systems will receive a friend-or-foe system manufactured to NATO standards.

    The source noted that about 100 Turkish troops in the fall of 2019 will begin training in the operation and maintenance of S-400 systems at a training center in Russia.

    “It is planned that in September-October 2019, about 100 Turkish military they will arrive at the training center of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation in Gatchina near St. Petersburg, where they will undergo training for five months on the maintenance and operation of S-400 systems, which will be delivered to Turkey almost simultaneously with the start of their preparation, ”the source said.

    The source noted that usually a training program for foreign military personnel to use air defense equipment is designed for about three months, but “taking into account the technical complexity of S-400 systems the duration of the training of the Turkish military has been increased to five months. ”

    As you can see, everything fell into place. The technology transfer mentioned by the Turkish side turned out to be a bluff and the conditions of the Turkish tender which clearly stated the technology transfer was canceled.
    A bunch of Turkey Russia is more in-depth than it seems, because technology transfer was the highlight of the purchase of air defense systems, and here ZERO transmission.

      Gulen’s supporters and people who disagree with Erdogan’s vision. And the Russian media miss one thing, give out the information fired or planted so much, and then they don’t say that they released or justified so much. Let's say Erdogan returned the majority who were arrested during the first landing in the Ergenekon case. And from the current part was returned.
