U. S. officials are talking tonight about resolving a dispute with NATO ally Turkey.
The Pentagon had balked at providing Turkey with parts for U. S. F-35 fighter jets, if Ankara buys a Russian air defense system.
Today, acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan said he thinks the Turks will buy the U. S. Patriot missile system instead, and that the F-35 shipments will resume.
I am very confident in the Patriot proposal that we have delivered to Turkey, its availability, its pricing and, very importantly, the industrial participation that comes along with the Patriot system.
I expect we will solve the problem so that they have the right defense equipment, both in terms of Patriots and F-35s.
U. S. officials warn that, if Turkey installs the Russian air defense system, it could help Moscow learn vital information about the F-35.
