We’ve all seen how useless Turkish pilots are in three separate incidents recently so I don’t expect them to fare very well once the CNG’s air defenses (their strongest point) are turned on.

This is Cyprus not Kurdistan or Syria… :lol:

This guy was shot in the head few months ago in Turkey, but he has lived.

Saddam sung his own 2 greatest hit songs with these. :wink:

In a similar way that they'll have to counter the 1000 rockets and missiles coming from us.

Too many years of chasing after Kurdish ragheads armed with Kalashnikovs and hunting knifes, have given Turkey the false sense that they’re some kind of “super power” but let’s see how they fare with the Cyprus of the 21st century…

I would have thought even better than they did back in 1974 when Turkey's military strength was quite non-technical. The idiots like your kind self caused a losing war back then - history has a habit of repeating itself... :roll:

As for Turkey being a "super power" I wonder which planet you leave on? Turkey is already an economic super power in its own rights, becoming the envy of Europe and most Middle Eastern countries. Has no debts and is actually loaning money to International Monetary Fund!

Producing her own fighter jets (F16s) and soon to produce the latest F35s, submarines, tanks, destroyers, state of the art fighter helicopters, most advanced mortars & guns, give or take 10 years Turkey will definitely be a super-power to the dismay of my dreaming neighbours!

You buy few corvettes when your people need the money most for the economy and see how that will help or protect you. Like any other machinery, you can buy them but do you have the people with balls to use them? Or will it be the case of more military machinery left behind by the fleeing Greek army, as the case was during 1974?

As an after-thought, the Turkish navy would probably sink those corvettes by just having their sailors fart at them! :lol:
