Ukraine has delivered to Turkey a S-125 Pecora land to air missile system, reports Defence Turk news site. The sale, announced with little fanfare by Vadym Nozdry, CEO of Ukrspetsexport, was largely overlooked Friday by the signing of a Ukraine-Turkey military deal and talks about joint production of missiles, drones and transport aircraft. The Pecora missiles were developed by the Soviet Union in the 1960s. They are not compatible with Turkey’s US-made MIM-23B HAWK air defense system. Defence Turk Editor-in-Chief Fatih Mehmet Küçük speculates the Pecora are destined for Turkey’s military campaigns abroad. Turkey currently arms combatants in Syria, Lybia and Azerbaijan.
