Question for those who have operated around there before
"A a squadron of F-16 fighter jets have been based at at Turkish airstrip in northern Cyprus since 2011, however it is understood the Turkish jets took off from Incirlik air base in Turkey, in order to intercept the British planes. "
Would that mean that the F-16's on Cyprus are not set up for QRA type response,
hence they were sent from Incirlik ?
