Maybe they want to buy a few so to improve the relations with US and NATO? Many believe that Turkey bought S-400 for political reasons(to fix the problems with Russia after downing a Russian warplane back in 2015) and not to really use them.
Historically, Turkey's primary rival is Russia.
Whatever the reason is, I don't like the "If the people in power must know what are they doing" mentality. Many times they don't or do it for way different reasons than the apparent one.
Turkey is also developing its own fighter, with support from the UK.
- 1cvmask 5y agoThe only open enemy of Turkey is the US. The US has been covertly arming terrorists against Turkey since Kissinger. Since Obama they have been openly arming terrorists against Turkey. Russia may not be an ally but Turkeys enemy has always been the US since Teddy Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson.
