The Turkish army was first seen using Russian C-400.

Put into service with Turkey, the Russian C-400 Triumph received its first combat use. These systems were deployed in a positional area near the Syrian border, and, according to a number of sources, these systems have already received their first combat use.

In the presented image, you can see that the air defense system is fully deployed, in particular, we are talking about both the conventional and the high-altitude radar of the Russian S-400 system. Moreover, sources point to the fact that Turkey has already conducted the first live fires with the use of Russian Triumphs, the target of which was an unmanned aerial vehicle, but no official statements from Ankara have been made on this score.

Nevertheless, experts draw attention to a very remarkable fact, which the editorial staff of the Avia.pro resource already reported a few days ago - directly F-400 fighter aircraft and a tanker plane flew over the Turkish C-18 positioning area, which, obviously, is evidence that in this way Turkey began testing its air defense systems on various aircraft of NATO member countries, however, a much more serious test for the S-400 in Turkey will be the American F-35 fighter, which will have to fly within the radius of destruction of Russian air defense systems operating in both passive and active modes, which supposedly should demonstrate the safety of combining the S-400 and F-35 fighters, which Turkey intends to receive in the near future.
