Turkey Secures 20 Eurofighter Typhoons from UK | Major Boost to NATO Air Power

Описание: The United Kingdom has secured a £8 billion deal to supply Turkey with 20 Eurofighter Typhoon jets, marking the largest fighter jet export for Britain in nearly two decades. This agreement is set to strengthen Turkey’s air defense capabilities and boost NATO security in a strategic region.

The Eurofighter Typhoon is a 4.5-generation multirole fighter known for its speed, agility, and versatility in air-to-air and air-to-ground missions. With advanced avionics, electronic warfare systems, and NATO interoperability, the jets will help Turkey modernize its aging F-16 fleet while bridging the gap until its domestic KAAN fighter becomes operational.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan hailed the deal as a symbol of strategic relations with the UK, while British Prime Minister Keir Starmer emphasized the boost to the UK’s defense industry, securing thousands of jobs over the next decade. Deliveries of the first jets are expected in 2030, with options for more in the future.

Amid regional tensions, including air threats from neighboring countries and the need for robust NATO defense, the Eurofighter acquisition represents a significant upgrade for Turkey’s air power. Additionally, Turkey is negotiating to acquire lightly used Eurofighters from Qatar and Oman to meet immediate operational needs.
