US-Turkey talks on restoring Ankara’s participation in the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter program center on statutory requirements under the NDAA and CAATSA that Turkey must no longer possess its Russian S-400 system and provide credible assurances against future Russian air-defense acquisitions before any transfer or readmission can occur. The Trump administration has signaled openness through public statements at the July 2026 NATO summit in Ankara and subsequent Washington meetings, including positive assessments from congressional figures on a potential path forward, while advancing related engine exports for Turkey’s KAAN fighter. Turkish officials have expressed optimism about near-term resolution via options such as deactivation or third-country transfer of the S-400 batteries. Countervailing factors include bipartisan congressional resistance, opposition from Israel and Greece over regional military balance, and State Department confirmation that legal conditions remain unmet as of late July 2026. Ongoing bilateral working groups and any further high-level diplomacy could influence timelines for certification and program reintegration.

Turkey will be considered formally included in the F-35 program if any of the following occur:
- Turkey is officially listed by the F-35 Joint Program Office as an F-35 Partner;
- Turkey is officially listed by the F-35 Joint Program Office as an F-35 Foreign Military Sales Customer; or

Statements of intent, negotiations, sanctions relief, waiver or certification of legal restrictions, congressional notification, or general announcements that the United States supports or is considering an F-35 sale to Turkey will not qualify unless one of the above conditions is met.
Once a qualifying action has occurred, this market will resolve to “Yes,” regardless of any subsequent reversal, suspension, or cancellation.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the F-35 Joint Program Office and the United States federal government; however, a consensus of credible reporting will also be considered.
