Chaulk one up for the "What's in it for the Turks" file.

U.S., Turkish Officials Brief on Joint Strike Fighter Pact
usinfo.state.gov
Turkey's SDD participation will allow their air force to take full
advantage of the Joint Strike Fighter opportunities and advanced
technology, logistics and training. In addition, Turkish industry will
be engaged over the life of the program in various endeavors that will
afford a broad range of industrial relationships with the U.S. and
other global partners. We anticipate that these relationships will
continue into cooperative production.

Our significant political and military relationships with Turkey over
many years has given the United States added protection in the current
war on terrorism. Turkey, like the U.S., has experienced the horrors
of terrorist acts and knows as we do that we must continue and combat
the menace at every opportunity.

Turkey and our other JSF SDD partners have joined forces with us to
bring 21st Century technology into their forces and industries in the
coming years. Our collective vision and common efforts will keep this
program lethal, survivable, supportable, and most importantly
affordable.
