The process of creating an illusion of Turkish superiority is always the game they play
Firstly, the Greek Air Force is less than the age of the Turkish fighters. The Greek Air Force receives more than one fighter per month. So, it is not the Greek Air Force possessing 18 modernized F-16 Block 72 aircraft, but rather the monthly growth of this fighter, while the Turkish Air Force has zero fighters that possess an AESA radar.
The HAF has 24 Rafale fighters, their specifications are higher than any modernized F-16 version.
The Greek Air Force has 10 M346 aircraft equipped with AESA radar that can detect the F-35 at a range of 40 kilometers, and Greece requests 20 additional aircraft.
As for the story of Turkey in the future, it will develop 270 F-16 aircraft with AESA radar and will be equipped with better equipment. This is a presumption and a fictitious attempt to create an imaginary Turkish superiority because it is simply at this time.
Greece will have developed 120 F-16 aircraft with AESA radar
Greece will also have 40 RAFALE aircraft AS TOTAL
It has 40 F-35 aircraft
It will has 30 M346FA aircraft
So, at that time, Turkey will still not be superior, because the Turkish F-16 fleet itself is outdated and does not compensate for the Greek superiority in RAFALE & F-35 fighters.
A story in the future: The Turks will own the KAAN plane first. Currently, the Turks have an inability to commit to implementation at the specified times, and the Turks’ reliance on transferring technology from the Ukrainians is not very reliable.
The Turks are urging the Egyptians to become a partner in this project because they will not be able to finance and provide incentives to the Egyptians by establishing Turkish arms factories inside Egypt, which in itself is a benefit to the Turks simply because Egypt is a larger defense market and because Egypt’s manufacturing costs are significantly lower than the Turks, so the Turkish factories moved in The clothing and electrical appliances industry is coming to Egypt, and Turkish factories are also moving to cars, in addition to the Chinese company BYD, which will accept 3 production lines to Egypt.
We return to the illusion of Turkish superiority
The Turks have one F-16 aircraft, and it is an aircraft that has begun to go out of service in Egypt and Israel due to its obsolescence and the obsolescence of its technologies, even those developed. The most Egypt can do for these aircraft is developments for some copies of the F-16 BLOCK 40 & BLCOK 52, because it is simply as if you are upgrade F-16 aircraft. like F-4 In the year 2000, old and obsolete aircraft are not worth spending large sums of money. The Turks’ inability to obtain other fighters is the reason for their insistence on the F-16. There are no other aircraft available. F-15 EUROFIGHTER RAFALE SU-57/35
So do not try to make your weakness your strength with propaganda. Managing air weapons is not shouting, and Turkey can crush the Greek, Egyptian, Israeli, Chinese and American air forces. This is children’s talk and no one should be trusted.
The F-16 remains a plane that everyone has studied and knows the tactics of air superiority and neutralization with other models. So, simply why are Egypt and Greece maintaining MIRAGE-2000/RAFALE/MIG-29/35 fighters so that they have diversity in operational capabilities and the ability to differentiate in tactics to fight with many aircraft? Available tools: As for the story of Turkish equipment being superior to Greek and Egyptian equipment, this is true, only within your right brain hemisphere, but countries are developing their equipment to create combat superiority, not on military forums.
To give you a simple example, Egypt was the first country in the Middle East to integrate 1,300 AIM-7 missiles in 1988. The replacement group requested international tenders to produce BVR missiles to replace these missiles. China presented its PL-15 missile and India provided ASTRA missiles, and the Turks themselves wanted to enter the competition.
The story of the American restrictions that Egypt simply does not take into account. In one of the Egyptian aircraft factories, there was a discussion with Lockheed Matters regarding the Egyptian modifications that Egypt is implementing on the F-16 fighters. The company’s only response was that you made the modifications because we cannot force you not to develop your fighters or implement the modifications just to preserve On the planes and not to lose any plane due to modifications that affect the engines or the original systems. The Americans know full well that their restrictions on a country like Egypt. Egypt will not pay attention to any American objections, and Egypt provides solutions to provide spare parts in the event of an American embargo. This is the reason and secret of maintaining large numbers of American equipment because insurance. Egyptian aircraft are available during combat. If Egypt’s situation is like this, then what about Greece, whose only requirement is that the Greek F-16 development program is superior to Turkish developments on F-16 fighters, whether Turkish own development or American development of Turkish fighters, so what you are creating is the illusion of Turkish superiority. It does not exist except through your constant shouting and your claims, which no one takes into consideration, or because you have to understand the truth of things before you speak. We, as Egyptians, ignore many of the claims of some people’s superiority for a simple reason. The most important thing to us is crushing our enemy during the clash, and not shouting on forums like you, because all your shouting is just promotion. Because of the equipment you produce and your search for customers
