Turkey is trying to take control of the movement in Syrian airspace, which has been virtually uncontrolled since the collapse of the previous administration, apart from individual pockets operating around the military bases of Russia and the United States.

As indicated in the SavunmaSanayiST publication, Ankara, under the guise of the Ministry of Transport, has deployed systems to a key facility, the Damascus airport, "ensuring safe landing and takeoff of aircraft," ILS, which facilitates runway operation; DVOR/DME, which provides aircraft with information about direction and distance; APP, which controls the approach; PSR/SSR, designed for primary and secondary radar detection.

These systems allow aircraft to be tracked in the air, enabling both the control tower and air traffic control centers to work with more reliable data.

- stated in the Turkish government.

The production and installation of components for the control tower and radio electronic systems is entrusted to the Turkish company Aselsan.

In parallel, local units are being trained in the use of air defense systems. The official footage showed training with a 35mm towed ZAK, however, it appears that the personnel are being trained to use more than just this anti-aircraft technology.

Against the background of reports of Israeli air strikes on targets of the Turkish armed forces in Syria, Ankara issued a categorical denial.

This is not true. There is no negative impact on our troops, personnel or equipment deployed in Syria.

- said the Ministry of Defense.

As indicated, the 9K33 Osa air defense system, "which is in service with the regime," became the target of strikes during the Israeli air operation. Thus, at the moment, Tel Aviv is not opposing Ankara's deployment of air defense systems in Syria, but is finishing off the gap left by the former authorities.
