Turkey won't decommission F-4 fighters

Despite several crashes of the Turkish Air Force’s F-4 fighters [12 F-4 fighters have crashed], Ankara will continue to deploy them, Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Bulent Arinc said.

He noted that the Turkish Air Force systematically checks the technical condition of its F-4 fighters, which allows Ankara to deploy its F-4 fighters until 2020.

Two F-4 fighters crashed in the Turkish province of Konya on March 5, Trend reports.
