US Air Force F-15 Flying To Turkey Armed With Air-to-Air Missiles

88
The US Air Force is sent to the base "Inzhirlik" in Turkey around the 10-F-15 fighters to provide cover for their attack aircraft and bomber involved in an air operation in the sky of Syria, reports MIC with reference to the Daily Beast.



Pentagon spokeswoman Laura Sil, in an interview with a publication, refused to disclose the specific tasks of fighters armed exclusively with air-to-air missiles. However, she noted: "I did not say that it is not connected with Russia."

According to the official version of the Pentagon, the deployment of the F-15 Eagle in Turkey is associated with "ensuring the security of the US allies of NATO."

Daily Beast suggested that "F-15, equipped with six air-to-air missiles, will help the Turkish Air Force to patrol the border with Syria to intercept Syrian aircraft and helicopters that repeatedly flew into Turkish territory."

However, “most likely, F-15s will be accompanied by attack aircraft and bombers during air strikes against targets of ISIS militants near the contact line with Syrian troops and the Russian zone aviation"Writes the publication.

The author of the article does not exclude the fact that the main task of the fighters will be “tracking the Russians.”

              the main task of the fighters will be "tracking the Russians"

              That's right, it is precisely this goal that the F-15 is pursuing in Turkey.
              Despite the fact that in Syria, most likely, there are Russian S-300 air defense systems, the interception group can also be expanded. The MiG-31 would help strengthen air superiority.

              In addition, in terms of legality and sanity.
              Syria - has every right to declare a no-fly zone over its territory. (The actions of the Western coalition are not legitimate, it is a fact, as it were). And to identify the Russian aerospace forces as a force that will provide such a zone.

              PS
              In general, the military presence in Syria needs to be expanded. It is not necessary to send a contingent at all, it can be achieved by (and using) the deployment of various systems and an increase in the number of aircraft.

                What air superiority are you talking about? Superiority over whom? Above the Turkish Air Force, or the Israeli Air Force with their hundreds of fighters? You go down to earth, for God's sake. And why in Syria MIG-31? In flight, the interceptor interacts with the air defense system, and in Syria it seems to have been a focal point for a long time, and not a single one, and it cannot be used effectively. Su-30 is quite up to its task - the cases of attacks on our bombers and attack aircraft from the air are still unknown, but they were not tasked with protecting the airspace of the whole country.

Su-30 ......

                  Understanding the complexity of the geographical situation, I am ready to admit your point of view is correct. At least partially.

                  The vulnerability of your position is that the Su-30s fly in the sky with air-to-air missiles under the wings. What for? Turkey and Israel have hundreds of aircraft. They want to bring down. But it’s kind of not supposed to, we kind of like a nuclear power. So what happens?

                  P.E. taking into account the fact that the activity of foreign air forces will only grow with time. There is a need to attract additional forces.
                  Why remembered the MiG-31. Well, this aircraft can carry under the wing of UR R-37 whose range is about 300 km. If there is a difficulty in applying it over Syria due to, as you say, air defense systems, these are the details. There are other aircraft that can use the R-37 (such as the Su-27, Su-35).

                  As for the tasks of controlling the entire airspace over Syria. Such a challenge is not worth it yet, but a couple of months ago there were no tasks to bomb ISIS. Such a task will inevitably come if the Russian Aerospace Forces and the SAR army want to achieve success in a military company (by the fact that it is not known how many more Americans will dump aid to terrorists). And therefore, an increase in the number of aircraft (and other complexes) is vital for increasing intensity.

                  Superiority in the air - is not necessarily achieved as a result of military clashes in the air. In this case (in Syria), it is achieved by the number of aircraft capable of intercepting air targets at long distances. The more such devices there are, the less temptation will be to test them for strength. An increase in interceptors in the sky of Syria is a prerequisite for you not to speak.

                  It’s clear that Israel and Turkey are not going to fight with our planes yet. But they will not be assembled for a long time if the number of our aircraft grows. Whatever you say.

                    You understand that it is difficult to build up the group more than now, because immediately there are enormous difficulties in supply, the theater of operations is too far from Russia. In addition, an increase in the aviation group will automatically raise the question of new bases, an increase in technical personnel, and ground forces guarding these bases, and all this will require even greater supply and costs. We will get even more involved in this war. Then it will be necessary to participate in ground offensive operations to speed up the process, since it is already obvious that the Syrians simply do not have enough forces to attack. And then what do you understand? What are the prospects? Too late we intervened. About 3 years ago, it would be possible to resolve the issue by the air group in 50 aircraft. And now 150 without a ground operation will not help restore the situation in Syria. Are we ready to fight the army in Syria? I think for everyone the answer is obvious ...

                      And many more on the site say that Russia does not need aircraft carriers. Just having a full-fledged aircraft carrier with a large air wing, Russia could not bother with an increase in the supply of the ground forces of the airborne forces, but could quietly work on targets from it.

At the same time, we’ll burn their base (Izhirlik), we won’t even see that 60 TNW units (61 bombs) are stored there, so that it doesn’t appear a little (at the same time we will avenge the Kurds).

                I am not such a great strategist, but here even I, with my little mind far from aviation, understand that "31st" was created and is used FOR ALL OTHER TASKS. There are many good articles on the site about the tactical and strategic use of the MiG-31.
                And it is obvious (who is good with memory and who knows how to use the site search) that the MiG-31 is not an air superiority vehicle, but an interceptor.

                SU-30 there are only 4 pcs. If they are confronted even by the same amount of F-15, they will not have to easily protect their own bombers, and if the superiority is at least 50 percent greater (6 units versus 4), then the matter is a pipe, losses are inevitable. So let's not idealize our videoconferencing and not solve military problems as it should, comprehensively. Air defense should be required.

              This was announced by the commander in chief of the aerospace forces of Russia Viktor Bondarev.

Following, China voiced a similar position that military actions are quite possible because of American ships near the disputed territories. Well, the EU singers are positioned similarly to Turkey.

        Please do not exaggerate, the balance of power in Syria is clearly not on our side, plus most of the supply to our group depends on whether Turkey will let our BDK pass or not ...

        Well, if they don’t miss it, it will already be an aggressive act on their part. In any case, the supply still goes through the air through Iran and Iraq with the Il-76th and An-124th. Iraq and Iran are on our side in this conflict, at least we have a common coordination headquarters.

            Economic blackmail and blocking of our fleet are one thing. Russia in response can block the Turkish fleet located in the Black Sea, place our warships in the Mediterranean Sea and also block the channel with our ships, Turkey will let the ships pass, and we will block them in the Mediterranean Sea and drown if necessary. Erdogan is not crazy; in the event of a war, Turkey will be the first to suffer.

              Dear Air Force reserve lieutenant, if there is time - take a look at the quantitative and qualitative composition of the Northern (Black Sea) fleet of Turkey, I'm afraid you will be unpleasantly surprised by comparing it with our Black Sea Fleet, so there is still a big question of who will block whom in the Black Sea. The Turks even have more submarines than ours, unfortunately. About the Mediterranean, I think it’s not even worth mentioning. The second important point is that Turkey is a member of NATO, plus Turkey has a very strong and well-trained ground army and air force. Plus, on the territory of Turkey, the US Air Force base Inzherlik, which stores tactical nuclear weapons. What do you think, is it necessary, is it all the Russian Federation? And will we act in this situation from a stronger, more advantageous side?

                The size of the fleet is not important, coastal missile systems and aircraft with long-range missiles are able to cope with the surface fleet, and for the submarine fleet there will soon be 6 Varshavyanka + Alrosa.

                Russia has several times more tactical nuclear weapons than strategic ones. The question is whether Erdogan is ready to go to the end, so he, unlike other NATO countries, does not follow Washington silently, but pursues an external regional policy independently, constantly provoking Greece, which is also a NATO member, does not agree with the US plan for the Kurdish question, etc.

Mobile radars of air defense systems are capable of detecting air targets at ranges up to 600 kilometers. Additionally, you can deploy Sky-M radars.

    There was news here about the supply of air defense systems to Syria, BUT it did not say about the S-300, but about the Buk and Pantsir-S1. Which, in principle, is more logical and cheaper. And the infrastructure is very expensive and complex as for the S-300 is not needed (in my opinion).
    Here, many along the way do not represent, in order for the S-300 to work efficiently, you can’t do only with the standard armament from the kit, but calculations must be trained at least. Correct me the air defense (real), if I'm wrong.

      There was infa, the old one, that Damascus was closed by 300s, supposedly for this the Jews rolled their Air Force to Greece, in order to study on the spot the possibilities of overcoming such air defense. Then they came in from Libya and banged the Yakhonts for BALs .. and SIC near Damascus ..

    The vulnerability of your position is that the Su-30s fly in the sky with air-to-air missiles under the wings. What for? Turkey and Israel have hundreds of aircraft. They want to bring down. But it’s kind of not supposed to, we kind of like a nuclear power. So what happens?

    P.E. taking into account the fact that the activity of foreign air forces will only grow with time. There is a need to attract additional forces.
    Why remembered the MiG-31. Well, this aircraft can carry under the wing of UR R-37 whose range is about 300 km. If there is a difficulty in applying it over Syria due to, as you say, air defense systems, these are the details. There are other aircraft that can use the R-37 (such as the Su-27, Su-35).

    The Su-30SM covers our drummers, just psychologically, so that the Turks, Qatars, Saudis feel that the 24th and 25th are not defenseless birds. What will be the answer.
    Whom are the P-37s going to "bring down"? Is it an American tanker? Or another passenger ..? More this thing will not hit anyone at 300 km .. and at a shorter distance is also unlikely .. not that garbage .. but expensive.
    To the statement of Syria about the no-fly zone over the country, I don’t even know what to say ... sad Then, in advance, you need to have 10-15 300PMU2 divisions there, cover them with BUKs and TORs, and with their Shells and MANPADS. And next to keep a few Points-U with tactical nuclear weapons, it’s better a dozen two .. And cover this whole farm from the ground .. Since the S-300s are not fired at the tanks .. And then you can just drink on diplomacy, since from a position of strength it’s dictated there nothing and no one ..
    PS: So understanding, the task of Russia: to leave Assad (or the pro-Assad coalition government) in power, to keep the country in its territory as much as possible (it is clear that the Kurds will leave), to somehow agree with the Sunnis (well, not all the same bearded thugs), build 2 bases (Latakia, Tartus), show your importance on the BV, save a piece of oil / pipeline to Europe (so that cheap Qatar oil does not immediately pour in), promote Russian weapons in a potentially very rich market. And all this with the least loss. Most importantly, leave more bad bearded guys in BV, preferably dead ..

      Since the S-300 tanks do not burn

      Drills were conducted to hollow tanks from the S-125. The tanks were politely dumped, and here with the 300s the NATO troops equated to tactical weapons

    The Russian air group in Latakia is covered by the Pantsir and Buk air defense systems delivered to Syria - source

    Moscow. November 5. INTERFAX-AVN - Protection of Latakia air base from possible terrorist attacks from land and air is ensured by anti-aircraft missile and gun systems delivered to Syria "Pantsir-C1" and medium-range air defense systems "Buk-M2E"a military-diplomatic source told Interfax-AVN on Thursday.

    "In Syria, with the participation of Russia, Integrated Air Defense System (OS), which provides security for all military and strategically important civilian objects. Including the Latakia airfield, where the Russian aviation group is based today, "the agency's source said.

    He clarified that in the composition of the Syrian air defense system there are also modernized complexes Air defense "Osa", S-125 "Pechora-2M", SAM S-200 and other systems.

    "The complex of these weapons makes it possible to guarantee the protection of the guarded object not only from air attacks, but also from missile strikes. This system is built by analogy with the Israeli" Iron Dome "," the source said.

    So he commented on the statement of the Commander-in-Chief of the Aerospace Forces of Russia, Colonel-General Viktor Bondarev, who said that Russia had supplied air defense systems to Syria.

    “We have calculated all possible threats. We have put there not only fighters, attack aircraft, bombers, helicopters, but also anti-aircraft missile systems. Because there can be various kinds of force majeure circumstances. For example, hijacking a combat aircraft on the territory of a state adjacent to Syria and strike at us. And we must be ready for this, "the commander-in-chief said in an interview with Komsomolskaya Pravda, published on Thursday.

    Is this Timati or what? laughing

    No, the Americans will come to an agreement with Timati, there are half of the sailors black and without tanning, and every self-respecting Negro is either a REP or a scientist .. since there are few scientists in the Navy, I suppose that the REPs ..

    Correct me the air defense (real), if I'm wrong.

    "Buk" and "Pantsir-S1" weapons for covering divisional complexes S-300 divisional complex is a long arm weapon. If the Buk and Patsir can be suppressed by a dozen HARMs, then the HARM will not stupidly reach C300 - the carrier will be destroyed earlier.
    And if they are together, then this is a gun with a kind word.
    Something like this

    HARM AGM-88 flies 180 km at a speed of M = 6. Not every S-300 will bang at such a distance. The F-15E will enter the S-300's zone of action for about a minute and a half, will bang 3-4 "HARMs" and slip out of the zone. More or less like this. In general, in real life, the S-300 will destroy the axes.
    But there are pluses, both in Yugoslavia and in Iraq, HARMs performed very badly. But there are also disadvantages, there are no S-300s in Syria .. So judge for yourself whether it is good or bad .. It will start if a good dump .. Then all this will not give a damn to grandmothers .. Minimum TNW .. Maximum - we will complete civilization ..
