Don’t sell the turks short militarily. They are hard fighters and not stupid. They have been part of NATO for a long time, and beneficiaries of that connection in many ways that makes them a formidable threat.
Israel has likely never fought someone as sophisticated as the Turks.
I’ve done a little more research since this post - and someone else had provided a description of the relative forces.
Turkey has a huge advantage in surface warfare combatants, while Israel has a large advantage in the air with both more and higher quality fighters. F15’s versus F4’s ain’t a fair fight.
The Israelis are going to have to cause the Turks to be the first to shoot - after that is taken care of, I suspect their air force will be the deciding factor - but they’ll take heavy losses. The Turkish military knows what they are walking into. They’ve had very long ties with the Israeli military. It would be a major brawl.
Perhaps not, but I think they understand the letting them break that blockade is suicide.
They will stop those ships.
