Losing 116 F-35 sales is of no consequence, the market will only grow, and more then make up for the difference. Someone in charge has to start using some brains, and get a strategic sense. Can McMasters kill this deal on his way out of the White House?
@tincansailor;
You are going full speed on your very subjective and Turkish/Muslim hatred comments. I say this, because in this thread, you had already posted a lot of BS even about long past history with a lot of lies. I hope I was/will able to expose your those hatred lies.
It is unbelievable that you can mention such nonsense that Turkey will buy the F-35s and sell critical info to the Russians, etc. Are you a child? Yes, U.S. deep state is openly and blatantly betraying Turkey by openly and blatantly supporting a pure Marxist/Communist/Terrorist group (YPG/PKK) which has been harming Turkey for more than 30 years. But even under this terrible circumstance, any of ranked officials or politicians in Turkey would do such a childish thing.
1- Turkey is still a strong NATO ally,
2- Nothing has changed in her foundations.
Purchasing a Russian missile defense system to meet her needs does not mean that above two bullets have changed. If Turkey buys F-35 then it means all the necessary sensitivity will be kept.
For the technical part, I think Spudman has nailed it;

Something has to act as a central data fusion engine, even if the F-35 is not part of it. That engine will gather data from all over the existing battlefield and add new systems like S-400/F-35. Each system will then in turn be able to talk to the engine to get an updated picture if the battlefield in it's area.
Since there is a central engine, the systems do not talk to each other, the S-400 will not be communicating with the F-35 and vice versa.
