Turkeys MİLGEM to build military ships for Pakistan
Savaş Onur
Turkey and Pakistan will cooperate on a venture to supply warships developed under MİLGEM, Turkeys national ship project, to the Pakistani Naval Force.
The MİLGEM project, carried out jointly by Turkeys Undersecretariat for the Defense Industry (SSM) and the Turkish Naval Forces, is a landmark project that developed the countrys first corvette-class warship.
The STM defense company is working on the MİLGEM project. Speaking to Turkish journalists yesterday in Karachi, which is currently hosting the fifth International Defense Exhibition and Seminar (IDEAS) 2008, Savaş Onur, a retired admiral who is currently the MİLGEM project manager, said the fair has been a very good opportunity for Turkish defense companies to promote their projects. We also display MİLGEM here, which is one of the most important projects Turkey has produced in the past few years.
Onur said the project was of a scale that would have a long-term impact on the Turkish shipbuilding and defense industries. Pakistan needs more ships like this. We are planning to carry out a joint project with Pakistan for these corvettes.
Onur said that more than 50 Turkish firms -- including the largest defense firms, Aselsan, Havelsan and STM -- have played a role in the MİLGEM project, gaining invaluable experience in warship building.
He said the three defense firms have merged forces to supply Pakistans demand for corvette ships. This is a four ship corvette project. The first ship will be designed and built in Turkey, while the three others will be built in Pakistans military shipyards. This is really a comprehensive project. It is expected to last 10 years, he said.
He noted that Turkey has had talks with Pakistan about this project for nearly two years. We can say that we are reaching an agreement. I think we will realize the project successfully. The Turkish defense industry has the capacity to manage such projects.

It'll be the initial batch, but also keep in mind that PN has 4 F-22Ps in the pipeline and may be interested in the 3 ex-Brunei Nakhoda Class...that's about 11 ships in the corvette range. There are also reports that PN is interested in several MRTP-70s, which is essentially the Turkish equivalent of the Swedish Visby.
An interesting and possible ORBAT is emerging where the PN may have a full-time committed coastal defence fleet consisting of the MRTP-series. The MRTP-44 & 33 FACs are excellent designs, and the MRTP-70 can act as the larger command & control element. This fleet would be armed in all spheres - the MRTP-70 leading in ASW and point-defence AAW.
One area I think we may focus on is improving the NSSG in terms of large equipment. There is a possibility that the Midget Submarines with one of U210 or DCNS Andrasta Class mini-SSK. This would play key roles in supporting the coastal defence force; mini-SSKs are designed to take on mine-laying; deploying & retrieving special forces commandos; armed with torpedoes and AShMs for defence.
Nutuk made note of the joint-corvette & submarine ops for submarine-hunting. This is probable with the standard U214 and Agosta-90B types supported by MILGEM, Nakhoda and F-22P.
