Which stop gap fighter would you prefer for TurAF?

[Constantin84]

Egypt has 600km Radars
and I am saying again if Egypt will have METEOR air to air missile for 36 Rafales and 24 Eurofighters ,,, then its another story
also Egypt buys SU-35s with R-37M hypersonic air to air missiles to engage on even Turkish E-7T AEWCs from very long ranges

Turkish 800km BORA Ballistic Missile and 800km GEZGIN land/naval based Cruise Missile and 300km SOM air launched Cruise Missile will be game changer to destroy Air/Naval Bases , Jet Hangars , Air Defense Systems in Cairo , Alexandria , Port Said , etc

if Turkiye lost Air Force Power , then we can focus on Ballistic and Cruise Missiles as like Iran



never underestimate the enemies

Nobody will wait for 20 years to attack Turkiye
in a few years we will see France,the Uae(Israel) backed Egypt-Greece alliance military action against Turkiye .. even puppet SISI is now threatens Turkiye to use military force in Libya

and never forget about 1832 when the UK and France gave most modern weapons to traitor Kavalalı Mehmed Ali Paşa of Egypt to attack Istanbul ..... today same senario



Erdogan ordered TAF to be in Iraq,Syria,Libya,Qatar,Somali
if the US puppet FETO could destroy ERDOGAN between 2013 and 2016 then Turkiye would lose in Syria,Libya and in the Eastern Mediterranean years ago

The Western powers saved the Ottomans from the Egyptian khedive

The Western powers saved the Ottomans from the Egyptian khedive

between 1821 and 1829 the Ottoman Empire fought Iran,the UK,France,Russia
and in 1826 Janissaries were banned from the Ottoman Army

and traitor Egyptian Khedive rebelled against the Ottoman Dynasty in the weakest period of the Ottoman Army in 1830s

as of 2020 Turkish BORA , SOM , ATMACA Missiles , also TRG-300 , J600T , ATACMS , KARGI , HARPY , JSOW , KGK , HARM , POPEYE , SLAM-ER , AIM-9x , AIM-120B , AIM-120C7 , HISAR , S400 , SM-1MR , ESSM , HARPOON will be enough to harm Greece and Egypt

but Turkiye needs more and more new weapons against evil alliance France,Greece,Egypt,S.Arabia,The Uae(Israel )

If the Turks have the extra funds, then the Eurofighter. It will be the avionics testbed upon which the Europeans will build their 5th gen fighter. Might as well peak into the competition if they will let you. Also getting the meteor and other European weapons and electronics will help Turks compare their weapons with European and American weapons.

When the Turks were in need of pilots and the PAF offered to send its pilots the US blocked it. The Turks could work with the PAF to operate a few squadrons of eurofighters, filling the gap of both nations while they work together on a stealth fighter. The Turks and the PAF could work with Qatar on this venture, as well.

Didn’t the Turks sent planes during the 1965 air war? This could be a similar arrangement, and get PAF and Qatar on board ingot the T-FX program.

 

[Armchair]

I don't think Turkey should buy anything European or American. They will just use this against you, stopping delivery, delaying delivery, suddenly stopping spare parts. Bugging the planes. The most logical solution is to go for the JF-17. An excellent plane to deal with Egypt and Syria. Far lower costs of owning and operating than anything from the West.

 

[Kingslayerr]

Turkey should buy JF17 block3. A nice nimble jet, aesa radar, integrated with turkish weaponry will be a really nice combo. And if not then go for eurofighter.

 

[AerospaceTech]

There is no way to buy JF-17 unfortunately.
Because of the Chinese ties of the JF-17 we can not easily get that aircraft.
In that time we can produce fighter version of the HÜRJET which is as important as MMU program.

 

[RadarGudumluMuhimmat]

Of course, my brothers from innocent pakistan do not know about the situation in our armed forces. We have fleets that will mass suicide when that they will fly a Chinese-Pakistani plane.

what a rumor and so funny

TURAF has 230+ F-16C/D .... and more 150 F-16E/F block70/72 would be great for the Turkish Airforce



F-16E/F block70/72

-- AN/APG-80 or AN/APG-83 AESA Radar
-- GE F110-GE-132A Engine
-- Electronic Warfare Suite
-- Improved Cockpit
-- Link-16 Data link for network centric warfare
-- service life extension to 12,000 hours ...... ( F-16 C/D 8.000 hours )
-- JHMCS

AN/APG-80 AESA Radar to detect RAFALE (1m2 ) from 110km away and MIG-29M2 (5m2 ) from 165km away

AN/APG-83 AESA Radar

120 km AIM-120C7 networked air to air Missile

 

[AerospaceTech]

Just a rumor, nothing realistic for now

The Western powers saved the Ottomans from the Egyptian khedive

No they didnt, Egypt was never a existential threat to the Ottomans. They could have continued but only towards the edges of anatolia, that is a big IF. Beyond that they would probably have got defeated and pushed back.
