Türkiye about to start EW POD project for F-16s with the leadership TÜBİTAK & TurAF & Defence Ministry...It is estimated cost is $2 Mln per jet... Also system cost expected to be 135 Mln TL... Today only 5 countries can produce such a system...

TÜBİTAK, F-16'ları radarlardan gizleyecek!

If it beats KG-3000's performance, it might be a good option for JF-17 Program. Our sixteens already have EW pods on order.
