Hala Madrid!!
i dont know much abt the turkish airforce but i ve heard that it is one of best airforces of asia.with good nos. of latest F-16's,awacs i m not sure...but it is a pretty capable airforce.can u compare it with indian airforce?
The best AF in asia is israel AF not turkey. But the thing is that both claim as of today to be a european country, geographically they are in asia.
Hala Madrid!!
Check this out... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkish_Air_Force
Thanks jonny.
It looks like all there eggs are in one basket ie f-16s blocks 30,40,50. And few f-4 of different variants.
It will be a good fight between IAF's su-30 mki & mirage 2000 & mig 29 mig 27 vs their f-16s. But what don't look good for IAF is TAF has 215-220 f-16s. The AF which uses better tactics & will win.
Hala Madrid!!
yes,i said one of the best airforces.
I hate to say it but it looks like Turkey will win this, they have much better
equipment than the IAF.
What better equipment might i ask?
Does the TAF have AWAC support? If not, I seriously doubt they can do much against the IAF. Remember the MKI can do the mini awacs bit, it is a more advanced a/c than the blk 50 +. the exercises with singapore proved this.
Altogether the TAF has about 350 combat a/c out of which only about 75 are blk 50 std. Undoubtedly, the F16s have a pretty good multirole ability, but air superiority will belong to IAF. The TAF F16s don't have any Amraam C versions, while the IAF has large amount of advanced R77 and R27s which would give them a huge BVR advantage. In close most of the IAF a/c have HMS, while only the blk 50 have this for the TAF.
the IAF on the other hand has close to:
Air Superiority:
SU 30 MKI - 20 (R77, R27, HMS, R73 etc)
SU 30 K - 24 (R77, R27, HMS, R73 etc)
MiG29 - 60 (R77, R27, HMS, R73 etc)
Mirage 2000 - 50 ++ (without the soon to be acquired 12 qatari m2000-5s) (HMS?, R73, Magics)
MiG 21 Bison - 125 (R73, HMS, R77, R27?)
MiG 21 bis - 80
Dedicated Strike a/c:
Jaguar - 75+
Mig 27 - 150 ++
MiG 23 - 50 odd
Total # 700 +
Ya, have fun trying to beat the IAF. Quality and Quantity wise, the IAF is clearly superior. It won't be too easy but the IAF, IMHO will emerge victorious without much trouble.
