You misunderstood, clown. Turkey allows Israel to use its vast airspace for training purposes. Israel on the other hand lets Turkish pilots use their state of the art training facilities. You got it all wrong buddy.

Stop watching videos you may have received from zionist organizations to raise funds. Wars are a real thing, unlike those videos they send which are aimed at the dollars in your pockets. Turkey is a serious NATO nation. They have a professional army. Did I mention "Turkey trains israel's pilots. The teacher knows the students."?

With exception of nukes, Israel alone has zero chance against Turkey.

lol. I don't have to watch videos, I am the real thing. My boss was program manager for the Israeli Strike Eagle Program. I actually know what I am talking about. You seem to not know shit.

Frankly I would love to see Israel crush the Turkish military. It might give Iran a clue.

Turkey is a nation of fur-bearing girly-men who ran after the first shelling in WWI. There are 40-year old fighter pilots in the Turkish Air Force.

What you fail to understand about the IAF is that they are the absolute cream-of-the-crop of young men from that country. A 21-year old fighter pilot is rare in the IAF, most of the hot pilots are under 20 years old. They are extremely fit, extremely capable and unbelievably well trained. You just have no idea.
 
Quote from MohdSalleh:

A number of news websites have picked up on Lebanese newspaper al-Mustaqbal’s claim that Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan wants to travel to Gaza himself to break Israel’s blockade the Palestinian territory.

Ynet news translates the story which states;

“As part of the open conflict between Turkey and Israel following the massacre against the ‘freedom sail’ to Gaza and the protest sparked in the world, Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan is considering going to Gaza himself in order to break the blockade imposed on the Strip.”

Al-Mustaqbal also reports that Erdogan has informed the US Administration of his plan to send a Turkish naval escort with another flotilla of aid, but that the Americans have requested the Prime Minister delay the escalation.

The prospect of the naval confrontation between Turkey and Israel is a dangerous escalation of the crisis, potentially resulting in open conflict between the two states, which could easily draw in Israel’s traditional enemies.

Turkish PM going to be on another aid ship with a Turkish naval escort?

WW3?:eek:


Like I said before, Turkey should be left alone.

Sakasvelli (Georgia's guy) may have heard a similar talk from Israel. They got paid fees, training fees, and other money for software, videos, simulation games, etc. When the Russians headed south, the whole thing fell apart but not before the "skilled" Israel "experts" ran away like sissies in charter civilian airplanes.

Sakasvelli signed a blank check, and Sarkozy begged russia's president to give Sakasvelli a second chance. He even flew there to save the guy.

Turkey and the countries in the area probably took notice. Russian's move was real, Israel's advice/staffing of georgia was video games/etc.
 
Quote from 377OHMS:

I hate to foment but I would say that the IAF could make quick work of the Turkish Air Force and that Israeli naval forces could quickly destroy the Turkish Navy.

If Turkey was so foolish as to fire some missiles at Tel Aviv they could find themselves looking at the ruble of the Hagia Sophia and large parts of Constantinople.

You get my drift?

Highly unlikely!

"The Turkish Air Force (Turkish: Türk Hava Kuvvetleri) is a branch of the Turkish Armed Forces. It is one of the oldest air forces in the world, and with a current inventory of more than 930 aircraft, ranks 3rd in NATO in terms of fleet size, behind the USAF and RAF. Supported by the TuAF's long-range in-flight refueling capability, the fighter jets of the Turkish Air Force can participate in international operations and exercises on all continents of the world."

From Wiki... we learn that the Turkish Air Force is 3rd in the world.

Israel's Air Force has about 750 aircraft. I'm not sure what would happen in an open conflict but at the moment Israel has a small advantage in aircraft due to the fact that they own several versions of the F - 15 Eagle Air Superiority fighter. While Turkey has the numeric advantage.

Turkish Air force

Personnel - 60100

Aircraft - 930


Israeli Air force

Personnel - ???

Aircraft - 750


However, when we compare the navy of Turkey to that of Israel it is obviously clear the Turks would obliterate the Israeli Navy... Again from Wikipedia...

Turkish Navy

Personnel - 48600

Equipment - 19 Frigates, 7 Corvettes, 10 Submarines and 108 Fast Attack Craft

Israeli Navy

Pesonnel - ???

Equipment - About 85 watercraft, 3 Corvettes, 10 Missile Boats, 3 Submarines


Obviously they're no match for the Turkish Navy!
 
Wow. Total nonsense.

Israel wins any military conflict with Turkey, air, naval, land. That is why turkey us backing off so fast. They don't want to be embarrassed in front of the entire world.

What exactly are you basing that conclusion on...?
 
Quote from John_Wensink:

I don't think Turkey's secular military is very friendly towards their islamist gov't, especially if it means the US taxpayer cash being turned off.

Who knows, maybe Turkey's military enacts a coup over the islamists.

Very possible. Turkey had a fairly long tradition of secular government, which is being reversed by the islamists now in office. Traditionally, the military made sure the governments adhered to secularism, so a coup would not be unprecedented.

Turkey is one of those countries that wants to have it both ways. They pretend to be our allies but backstab us on the eve of the Iraq war. They pretend to be part of europe, but turn around and try to thwart sanctions against Iran. Now they are trying to position themselves as the leaders of the islamist world by confronting israel. Of course, they are emboldened in doing this by Obama's obvious weakness and the feeling that he shares their desire to take Israel down a notch.
