Yes It is... Turkey choosed ESSM because We are an official partner of ESSM program and Roketsan has increadible design-development share coming with those missiles.BTW, I do not think that USA congress will give permission USA institues to export SM-2 missiles for Turkey...
Without SM-2 or a Missile with similar Capabillities TF-2000 would have only limited AAW Capabillities, SAMP-T could be an Alternative for SM-2. It is likely possible in future that Turkey could develop Long - Range AD Missile, but I expect such Missile could be ready after 2020.
