According to the CNN Turk television channel, the
F-15E Strike Eagle aircraft will be stationed at the Incirlik airbase.
The Incirlik airbase currently hosts US, German and Qatari aircraft taking part in a US-led coalition conducting airstrikes on Daesh positions in Iraq and Syria.
According to Saudi officials, the four aircraft will be sent to Turkey as part of its efforts to fight the Daesh terrorist group, which is outlawed in many countries, including Russia and the United States.
