Turkey and the F-35 has made a lot of news in the past few
weeks. First, Turkey had an interesting cultural display at the
Lockheed ceremony in Fort Worth.
Second, the Senate’s version of the National Defense
Authorization Act included language that could threaten the Turkish
role in the F-35 consortium. Against this backdrop, Ankara
continues to tell the world it will import the Russian made S-400,
potential triggering American sanctions and raising questions about
US-Turkish defense-industrial cooperation.
To make sense of it all, Aaron spoke with Valerie Insinna, Air
Warfare Reporter for Defense News.
