Abstract

The article reports on the decision of the U.S. government to suspend the participation of Turkey in the F-35 fighter jet program despite Turkey's acquisition of S-400 air defense systems from Russia. Topics mentioned include Turkey's failure to consider the warnings made by the U.S. government regarding the incompatibility of S-400 batteries with the operation of F-35, the risk that the Russian data collection system may cause to the military intelligence, and the features of S-400.
