The Idlib airspace is protected by the most modern Russian air defence systems and Turkey is prohibited from flying over Idlib except for MEDEVAC and CSAR purposes. The risk is getting your aircrafts downed and Turkish troops (in case of operation) acting without air cover. That would be total butchery
Turkish Forces with Radars and 40km HAWK XXI Air Defense Systems to protect Turkish troops in Idlib
also hundreds of MANPADS ( in the last 2 days , 1 Syrian MI-24 Attack Helicopter and 1 Syrian MI-17 were hit by MANPADS over Idlib )
ERDOGAN : Aircrafts that hit civilian settlements in Idlib will no longer be able to move freely
Turkey's military will strike Syrian regime forces by air or ground anywhere in Syria if another Turkish soldier is hurt
ERDOGAN send message to PUTIN ... We will use our army and air force and if another Turkish soldier is hurt, nobody in safe in Syria
If Russian Fighter Jets attack Turkish Forces in Idlib , then Turkish Army and Airforce will response
if Russian S300 and S400 attack Turkish Fighter Jets , then Turkish Army hundreds of TRG-300 guided MLRS , J600T and BORA Tactical Ballistic Missiles and 100 of HARPY kamikaze drones will destroy Russian S300 and S400s
never forget that Russian military bases in Syria only 30-100 km away from Turkey
if Russia has capable air defense , on the other hand Turkey has capable guided MLRS , Tactical Ballistic Missile and Kamikaze Drone fire power to wipe out Russian Military Bases including S300 and S400s in Syria
even I am not talking about Turkish Airforce and Navy armed with land attack cruise missiles to engage on S300 and S400s in Syria
S300 and S400s are strong in Russian territory ,,,, its only 30-100 km away from Turkish territory
btw if Assad Regime use airforce to attack Turkish forces in Idlib , then Turkish F-16 Fighter Jets armed with 120km AIM-120C7 air to air missiles will shot down Syrian Fighter Jets over Idlib even from Turkish airspace
Turkish Armed Forces have great capability ....
We needs only PATRIOT or SAMP-T air defense system from NATO ..... nothing else
