As USA is backing out from Turkey. So, any possibility of Turkey selling out all the US stuff present in its AF?
 
You will have to wait till the end of next decade for that.
Turkey should try it with getting out of F-35 and invest money in J-31 or J-20 with China. I am sure then till 2030 there will be nothing from EU-US in its fleet.

Same what Pakistan is doing. Falcons are there but some people are saying the 50 J-31s might going to replace the new 18 F-16s from 2020 along with other falcons and planes from the PAF fleet. As I am sure a total of 150 J-31s will be planned.

F-35 is heavy criticized

Pentagon’s big budget F-35 fighter ‘can’t turn, can’t climb, can’t run’

I would just buy like 70 of F35s instead of 116. And speed up indigenous development. If I had my way.

Better for Turkey to cancel and back out from F-35s and go with Chinese J-20 or J-31 development which is 10 times cheaper and even 5 times quicker.

Turkey along with other current and former operators of F-5 and F-4 have a good chance to convince USA to sale F-5 and F-4 to IRAN which has a decades of experience in it and would love to buy this quickly. Allowing the Turkey to even think of buying or getting JF-17 or may be J-10s in their fleet with license production.

Totally unreasonable.

Is China a NATO member and we are not aware of that or what?

The only option for Turkey other than and in addition to American made planes is Turkey's own design plane which is TFX. and it is not "the Turkey".
