Turkey sold out for F-16s lmao
BASED
AMERICA ALWAYS WINS
Good, tho.
>swedistan and gondola joins nato
>what deal were you talking about?
>no F-16 for roaches
screenshot this, it will turn out exactly like that, and the roaches gona seethe hard when they get nothing.
Kek. I can only imagine the seething that would cause
Finns get advanced F-35s, Turks stuck with 50 year old bird.
We should have kicked Turkey out of NATO years ago anyway. They're fucking lucky we're letting them stay.
Kino livery.
>turks, chinks and russkis together
lets be honest nato wouldnt stand a chance
We just send in waves of Estonians until the T/C/R Alliance runs out of bullets.
Air forces are just a waste of money, for the most part. And for the most part they exist to counter and balance forces that exist on the opposite side.
It doesn't matter if you have 50yo technology when your enemies have a 70 yo one.
Nothing wrong with modernized F-16s, they are capable fighters that can be fitted to serve various functions.
It's retarded to blow money on F35s if you can't make sure you have decent anti-missile systems, radars, long-range artillery etc. at the same time.
Turkey really wanted F-35s because they really wanted something to operate from their new carriers and the F-35B is the only modern equivalent of the Harrier
Turkey will come up with another demand next week which will include giving them whole, of Cyprus or some shit.
true, and ofc 35s have their uses and advantages, but that doesn't change the fact that F16s are good machines, and I don't think Turkey will go to war with EU or Russia anytime soon, and when you look at middle-east and Africa... it's not like these dune people run around, or (fly around) with 8th get fighters.
F16 deal is way more than enough for 'allowing' Fingolia and Swedistan to join NATO. They should be happy.
Why would Turkey want Cyprus? The only reason they annexed half of it was because Turkish Cypriots were being genocided
Wait, you need (((approval))) of the US government to buy this shit?
Like, isn't NATO essentially an extortion racket? Why would you need to ask to pay the protection money?
US companies produce it. Just because you're in NATO doesn't mean you have access to all technology and armaments that you want.
Who the fuck should decide about what their military-industrial complex can sell, Belgium?
Why wouldn't the US want to sell as much old trash as possible?
Are they scared of getting owned by the Turks or what?
This is why Turkey is a nato member. They want shit and get shit.
Holy fuck. Not even F35?
F-16's are a lot cheaper to maintain. Besides they really want the F-35-C for carrier launch, but really how many can they support? Likely less than 20, but they can support hundreds of F-16.
i expect that erdogan has plan to veto for joining swe and fin for some retarded new reason.
Because it's not just about money. Their primary goal is to keep everyone down to the point where they can't become a regional superpower.
That's arguably the main strategic goal of (crumbling) USA 'empire'. Geopolitical goal.
To not let any other country dominate their region- Germany or Russia in Europe or Iran or Turkey in the Middle East.
Yes they fucked up with Chyna, but Americans fucked up a lot of things over the decades.
