The F-16s made their first flight in 1974 and have been the backbone of the Turkish Air Force ever since. Our country produces F-16s with a joint production agreement and has gained significant knowledge in modern aviation technologies thanks to this.
Many of the current F-16s are old and tired. Given the modernization of Greece's air power and the increasing regional threats, Turkey needs to update its air power. In order to address this situation, Turkey has requested 40 new F-16 Block 70 fighter jets and 79 modernization kits from the United States. This request is a step towards modernizing Turkey's air power and maintaining its air superiority over Greece. The F-16 Block 70 is equipped with the latest technology and will provide a significant advantage in air combat. In addition, Turkey has also requested missiles and other subsystems from the United States. This request is aimed at increasing the deterrence and effectiveness of Turkey's air power. Turkey is also continuing its domestic missile production and has achieved significant improvements in this regard.
On the other hand, Greece's F-35 requests were approved by the United States, and as you know, Turkey was excluded from the F-35 program due to the purchase of the S-400 air defense system. The United States wants Turkey to get rid of the S-35s so that it can return to the F-400 program. The air power of our country is of critical importance given the regional balances and its geopolitical position. The developments related to the F-16 and F-35 are an indicator of Turkey's efforts to modernize its air power and create deterrence against regional threats. To what extent these efforts are necessary and important, the technical details of the F-16 and F-16 Viper aircraft and more are with you with today's video of our inventory series.
