Taken the claim at face value, did the Fencer had a shot by employing ECM against the incoming AMRAM?

According to Russian media,a few months ago ,one of these Fencers completely disabled the electronics on a US Arleigh Burke Aegis equipped cruiser.It makes you wonder why today the same super duper fencer was so easily turned into artificial rain.

But hey,i guess its tradition for Russian jets in the ME areea to be downed from the sky when encountering their Western counterparts.

Turkey provides no proof Russian Su-24 violated its airspace
According to Peskov, Turkey has provided no evidence to prove that the Russian Su-24 bomber violated its airspace.

He said once Turkey had provided no proof Russia relied on its data that the warplane had not violated Turkey’s airspace.

When asked whether Ankara had offered any official proof of its claims that the Russian warplane had violated its airspace, he answered in the negative.

"We rely on data from out defense specialists who know all the parameters of the downed plane’s flight," Peskov said. "These data show that the plane was flying in Syria’s airspace and was shot down over Syria."

The real power in Pakistan is maintained by the Military and not the Prime Minister of Pakistan. Russia's declaration of war on Turkey will galvanize a large percentage of the Muslim world in defending Turkey and Pakistan will be included.

People talk here as if Pakistan is some big time military superpower, that would shift the balance of war?

What does Pakistan have to offer, that Turkey already doesn't posses or can't get from NATO?

i wish both GOVs solve this issue on table and work together for bomb terrorists

Which terrorists ! PKK (that is supported by russia, china and iran against turkey) or Turkmens ( that is supported by turkey against all these)

People talk here as if Pakistan is some big time military superpower, that would shift the balance of war?

What does Pakistan have to offer, that Turkey already doesn't posses or can't get from NATO?

Pakistan is not a super military power but still it can be useful to break countries just like in old days in case of USSR.
