ANKARA, 24 January 2022, (TON): Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar said “Ankara and Washington will negotiate the delivery of F-35 fighters in late January – early February in the United States.”
The United States previously sent an official notice to Turkey about its exclusion from the program for the supply of the latest F-35 fighters due to Ankara’s purchase of Russian S-400 air defense systems.
The US canceled the joint memorandum on the F-35 si-gned by Turkey in January 2007, signing it with the seven remaining partners in the F-35 project – the UK, Italy, the Netherlands, Australia, Denmark, Canada and Norway.
The Turkish President said that the United States offered his country to buy F-16 fighters after it was excluded from the F-35 supply program.
