Russian S 400 air defense has been in news for some time now. Recently a NATO member- Turkey has gone ahead with its decision of buying the system despite strong objection from NATO and possible imposition of sanctions by the United States.
The objection stems from the fact that that S 400 will be able to gather technical data such as radar signature of F 35s, if Turkey operates the F 35s in the airspace which is monitored by S 400.
This could hamper the effectiveness of F 35 in a combat situation going forward.
But Turkey stood by its decision and has sacrificed the F35 program in favor of S 400.
Turkey’s President Erdogan was quoted by NTV as saying: "One S-400 is worth three Patriots. If the conditions are even equal to the S-400 (deal), we would buy Patriots, but if they are not, then we have to think of our interests,"
U.S. Firm Stratford recently come out with its analysis stating “The Russian S-400 is arguably one of the best all-around strategic SAM systems in operation today. “
It added that S 400 will be highly effective if used correctly. Viewers can check the report from the link in the ‘Description' section below
