United States URGES Turkey to DUMP Russia’s S-400 for their Patriot missile system

The Patriot missile is a piece of junk. The S-400 is way superior than it.

We yet to see The Russian tested in a real shitstorm to be able to make such claims.

Should never ever happen, Turkey will lose what money can´t replace, and that is face. Next thing will stop buying gas from Russia.

This last decade has proven that Western allies of Turkey have been unwilling to sell modern air defence system to Turkey, usually doing stalling tactics and making excuses for not selling. In a region where neighbouring countries have huge amounts of ballistic missiles (especially Iran), it is an extreme weakness for Turkey not being able to protect its key facilities (energy production, petrolium and mining products,central government institutions) from those threats.

Buy S-400s, ship them to Azerbaijan than get F35s. Everyone happy.

I don't understand why its bad for USA if Turkey acquires the S400 system. Isn't S400 a better system than the patriot missile shield.

Because S400 will expose the F-35 and that information is only in benefit for Russia.

But this is what you get if you backing a terrorist organisation that attempted a coup in Turkey.

As they do instantly in Syria with Israel F-35.

That's just an excuse.

In India, they are claiming it will affect interoperability, which is also a dumb excuse, since we have no intention of having any real interoperability.

I'm not referring to the political options for Turkey, I am referring to the US excuse that the S-400 will somehow reveal the capabilities of the F-35 to Russia.
