Russian C-400 first tested on American F-16

6

The Turkish authorities are happy to continue to pour salt on the wounds of the US administration, which it inflicted on Ankara’s purchase of Russian S-400 anti-aircraft missile systems.

The Ihlas news agency posted a video on Youtube that captured the testing of the radar systems of the Russian systems that Turkey deployed on the territory of the Kahramankazan (Myurt) military base, which protects the airspace over Ankara.

The authorities of the capital province have already reassured the population, explaining that the flights of Turkish air force fighters, including at low altitudes, will be associated with the need to check S-400 radars.

But the cherry on the cake is that American fighter aircraft F-16 and F-4E, armed with the Turkish Air Force, will be used as experimental rabbits for the Russian systems.

Turkish media reported that during the testing of the radar, Russian systems scan the airspace for several hundred kilometers. According to the plan of the Turkish military, the S-400 Triumph should take up combat duty no later than April 2020.


One can only imagine what feelings are now experiencing in the US military department, observing how the NATO allies are testing probable enemy air defense systems on American fighters.

    - Probably, they dream that Russian fighter jets would soon acquire ... well, to check on them, on the enemy ... laughing Yes, and the Turks will have an excuse - well, they say, we’ll also buy airplanes for this, otherwise it’s somehow inconvenient even to aim at American exercises ... laughing

    I especially liked the video "Phantom" F-4 laughing Turks fell swoop everything that flies, the Americans tested? Or is it all that flies will be taught to evade the S-400? recourse We now live in such a world that even hurray marginals are at an impasse, for what and whom to drown. laughing

      For Americans, it no longer flies. It seems that the latter were in the Marine Corps.

    - Yes ...
    - Well, the F-16, of course, is a cool fighter (albeit a pretty old one) .. but for the S-400 this is not the hardest target ...
    - Besides ... - I personally did not understand ... why did the Turks "test" there ... -Turks themselves, on their own, assemble their F-16s and ... and ... and ... and ... and ... they can themselves "chemise from themselves" as they want ...
    - Maybe they "their F-16" and drove in front of the S-400 ... to annoy Trump a little ...
    - Was there a check on the capture of the F-16 with the operating electronic warfare system and other protection that were installed on the NATO airborne systems ???
    - Well, this F-16 flew "under the nose" of ours, that is, the Turkish S-400, so what ???
    - Well, yes ... Trump Erdogan tickled his nerves, but nothing more ...
    - Erdogan now has a very powerful trump card in his hands against Trump ...
    - He can now blackmail all this "funny community", which is called NATO by the fact that ... what ... what ... that all this NATO will have to completely change the entire system of identification of "friend or foe" and other "keys" to this military bloc ...
    - And this is a very, very expensive and time-consuming "event" ...
    - Ah yes Erdogan ... - He is like a bun from a famous fairy tale .. - "And he left his grandmother ... and left his grandfather ... and so on ..." - And there is no "fox" in this "bun" "there is no foreseen ahead ... unless the Americans apply the" argument "that they once used against D. Kennedy ...
    - But the Americans now have no time for this ... -Today they are just right to use such an "argument" against Trump himself ... -there is no time for Erdogan ...

      And no "fox" is foreseen for this "kolobok" in the future ... unless the Americans apply the "argument" that they once used against Kennedy ...

      - they already tried, under the guise of rebellion. Even with the help of a combat aircraft. Therefore, apparently, Erdogan S-400 bought and placed where necessary, so that at the most crucial moment again the air defense systems were not disconnected from the outside by those who had arranged the coup and installed the air defense.

    And we already know how our system works against our aircraft. Only a wimp might think that such tests have not been done. It is interesting to know how it works against the American. Diverse, and, better, of course, new.
    The Americans, considering this possibility, prudently refused their allies to supply them with their airplanes. Even though the Turks participated in the production.
