The lone economically accessible fifth-age stages that might actually supplant them is the Russian Su-57, and the Chinese (Chengdu J-20) yet the two of them will make more confusions given that they are not NATO-interoperable, and it would be viewed as a sign that Turkey is separating itself further away from the West.”

Despite the fact that the state division said that the US-UAE protection bargain was under audit and conveyances would not be made at any point in the near future.
