Valin Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 UK Defence Journal George Allison July 19, 2019 The United States is “unwinding” Turkey from the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter programme as a result of the country buying the Russian S-400 air defense missile system, Pentagon officials have said. Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment Ellen M. Lord and Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for Policy David J. Trachtenberg told reporters in the Pentagon that Turkey has taken delivery of the Russian-built system. “Turkey cannot have both the Russian system and the fifth-generation fighter.” (Snip) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
