Turkish Air Defence Programs

By 2023 Turkey will have accumulated a very advanced, multi-layered air defense system ready to tackle just about every threat.

High altitude/Anti-ballistic defense

  • Hisar-U
  • Aster 30B2
  • S-400
  • Nike Hercules (will definitely be retired by then)
Medium altitude
  • Hisar-O/Nokta/Deniz
  • ESSM
  • Hawk XXI
  • Rapier (if not retired by then)
Low altitude
  • Hisar-A
  • Hisar MANPAD/VSHORAD
  • KMS/Stinger
  • Igla
  • Korkut SPAAG

You always forget your most important and active air defense system. Air Force (F-16, AWACS...)

Indeed, experts claim often that F-16s are our sole protection against BM's. But was it ever tested under real conditions ?

In fact, that is very true! our most important and active air defense system is and will be our Air force assets. And I guess Although, undeniably it is fundumetly under the catagory of Air deffence, (ballistic) Missile defence concept should be considered seperatly. This is simply why a concept like Missile defence by itself exists anyway.
