United States has deployed six F-15C Eagle fighter jets to Incirlik Air Base, Turkey on Nov. 6, in a move what it says a demonstration of support for Turkish sovereignty.
Earlier Russian fighter jets had strayed into Turkish airspace, while operating against the ISIS, from a Syrian airbase close to the Turkish border.
U.S. Air force says the aircraft, from the 48th Fighter Wing at RAF Lakenheath, UK, will conduct combat air patrols in Turkish air space.
In October, USAF has deployed 12 A-10 ground attack aircraft to Incirlik Air Base, to improve its attack capability against the ISIS.
