Russia downs Turkish warplane with new electromagnetic missile
Greetings,
Russia downs Turkish warplane with new electromagnetic missile
According to reports coming out of Turkey, it is no longer just media speculation. according to the chairman of the Democratic Left Party (DSP) of Turkey, Masum Türker, It was not Syria that downed The Turkish warplane over Syrian waters. It was Russia.
When the downing of the Turkish F-4 over Syria first took place there was all kinds of speculation over whether or not it was Syria or Russia that took out the warplane that was sent into Syrian waters to pry on behalf of NATO. Then out of nowhere all of the chatter of this kind ceased.
Now a prominent figure in the know in Turkish politics and national security has boldly stated that it was Russia that downed the fighter by using a new generation of electromagnetic missiles in a show of force to Turkish and NATO forces. Is this true? You tell me.

According to Türker, the Turkish jet was downed by a new-generation electromagnetic missile shot from one of the Russian warships which was in the region at the time of the incident. “New-generation missiles do not explode, but block the electronic systems,” Türker told Today’s Zaman in an exclusive interview.
Following the downing of the Turkish aircraft, an unarmed reconnaissance version of the F-4 fighter jet, Syrian officials said they were sorry for the incident. Türker takes this official statement as an indicator that the jet was not shot down by Syria, saying, “For a mistake you committed, you wouldn’t say you were sorry, but you would say ‘forgive me’.” According to Türker, Syria wanted to give the message “we wouldn’t have wished such a thing to happen, but we couldn’t avoid it.”
Syrian officials also said the jet was downed by anti-aircraft gunfire within Syrian airspace. Türker doesn’t believe this to be true, because the aircraft was too far away from land, the wreckage of the jet being discovered at about 8 miles off the Syrian coast, for anti-aircraft gunfire to be efficient, given that anti aircraft guns have a range of about two kilometers.
“Had the jet been downed by anti-aircraft fire, then it wouldn’t have been swept away such a long distance either.” he noted.
At the time of the incident there were three Russian warships in the region, and the DSP chairman claims that one of the ships is equipped with the best radar and missile systems in the world. Türker is of the opinion that the Turkish jet was there for intelligence purposes, and that it was not flying alone, but was accompanied by one or two other fighter jets. “When the other jet[s] felt the blockage on their electronic systems, they just flew away,” he said, noting that according to the training document of the Turkish Air Force, intelligence jets should not fly solo, but should be accompanied by fighter jets.
According to Türker, the US and Great Britain are aware, having their own radar records, that the jet was downed by Russia, and Russia is disturbed by fact that Turkey is carrying out the demands of the US regarding the Syrian issue…More Here
