The 3rd F-35, manufactured for the Turkish Air Force, was officially handed over to the Turkish authorities yesterday. The aircraft with tail number 18-0003 will be used in training activities with the first two aircraft at Luke Air Base. The delivery of the 4th aircraft is planned to be completed today.

Well they are technically delivered but cant leave the US.

Let's see what we'll hear.

"Placing an S-400 somewhere close to US troops would be a good opportunity to learn the system," the US official told Reuters.

Interesting questions ...

If US does not want to sell F-35, how long to keep nuclear weapons in Turkey?
How long will the US and Turkey TPY-2 radar as part of NATO BMD?
NATO BMD is more critically dependent on this radar than anyone else.

19200lbf thrust

judging by the fact that hurjet is twinjet and the number for it's thrust, i assume hurjet uses honeywell/itec f125??

I wonder this change is related to the visit to Russia or not?
