That f16 aint returning from that meeting.
I don't know much about airplanes, but they sure look sweet, much more impressive than the F-35 "flying brick."
Sultan Ergodan is trying to "goad" Russia into a fight.

Russia's not dumb enough to take the bait, and has just added the SU-35S's to make it clear that Russia in the short term, can give Turkey a very bloody nose in Syria, right away,
( and that's not including what Russia can do in the long term),
Russia also upgraded the SPAF Mig-29's to the latest, greatest version.
Sultan Ergodan is trying to incite a Russian action, to allow Turkey to claim a NATO Section 5, invade Syria, and fight Russia, Iran and Syria, to protect ISIS and Al Quida, to the last dead NATO Soldier.
The Sultan wants to lay cover for his fascist Turkoman pups too.
Syrian/Russian pilots now have orders to shoot threats first and ask questions later. It won't be long before Turkish cross border fire is greeted with TOS and no one, let alone NATO does $#'^ about it. An Article 5 for a well known supporter of al Qaeda/ISIS woukd bring the house down. Even Israel has called Turkey out.
In a few weeks the border will be locked down, then the real massacre will begin. "Moderates" and all. We ain't seen nothin' thus far. Syrian police/intelligence are already re-establishing themselves in liberated areas. The hunt is on. It would not surprise me either if a few folks were popped in Turkey as well.
RRH,
Other than on the "battlefield" there won't be a lot of massacres. Both the YPG and the SPDF are reporting a "flood" of former rebels signing up to the "winning side"
Hom's is a "perfect" example. Out of 3,400 "rebels" in Hom's, 600 took the ceasefire to ride buses to other areas to continue the jihad. 2800 elected to join either the SAA or the SPDF, or turn in their weapons and retire.
When push comes to shove the jihadi's will flee to Turkey. That's why Sultan Egodan is willing to "bet all", as he knows the vipers he armed and nutured, arn't going to settle down in Turkey and open goat farms and tourist stalls.
