The Future Expectations of The Turkish Air Force
( 2030 )
-- Egyptian Air Force lacks AIM-120 for F-16s and METEOR for Rafales
-- Greece aims to establish airspace superiority against Turkiye with new aircraft purchases in a short time until 2027
but , it will take 3 years to regain airspace superiority against the Hellenic Air Force
This is how the Air Forces in the region in 2030
Russia : MIG-35 , SU-34 , SU-35 , SU-57
Israel : F-15 , F-16 , F-35
Egypt : F-16 , MIG-29M2 , Rafale ... ( F-15 and Eurofighter on agenda )
Greece : F-16 , Mirage-2000 , Rafale ... ( F-35 on agenda )
Iran : buys 24 SU-35s
In 2030 Turkish Air Force will be one of the best in the world
