Turkey told about the destruction of their MiM-23 Hawk air defense systems by mysterious fighters

Turkey again announced the destruction of its air defense systems in Libya.

The Turkish media, with reference to the country's defense department, again announced the destruction of Turkish air defense systems in Libya. According to the information provided, at least five short-range air defense systems were indeed destroyed, however, it became known that this was not done by MiG-29 fighters, as previously reported, but by UAE combat aircraft.

Thus, the Turkish media confirmed the initial information that Mirage 2000 fighters of the UAE Air Force were involved in the strikes, however, it is quite remarkable that the strike on the positional area of ​​the air defense missile system was carried out together with powerful electronic suppression, and given the lack of The Libyan national army of such complexes, as well as the lack of electronic warfare equipment on Mirage 2000 fighters, the question arose whether Turkey is trying to hide thereby its vulnerability even to MiG-29 fighters, which, by the way, are in service with the same Libya, Syria, Egypt and other countries.

It should be noted that this is far from the first case when sources report on the infliction of strikes by MiG-29 fighters, in particular, it was previously reported about the destruction of a convoy of Turkish military and PNS forces preparing for the assault on Sirte.
