Yeah those countries like to fool themselves by these things which is in fact quite funny to the extreme. 1500 tons is a corvette not even a frigate.
The classification of ships is a very touchy matter for example the Japanese classify their 11,000 ton navy ships as "Frigates" to not upset the balance of forces in the region. on the other hand we have people classifying a 1500 ton ship as "Destroyer" which always bring a good laugh in our meetings.

6000+ ton means that they are bordering on destroyers and its classification will depend upon its role it is going to take.

So, in 2020s, Turkish Navy will look like this:
4+2 TF-2000 AAW-Destroyer/Frigates
16 TF-100/MEKO/OHPs Frigates
8 Milgem Corvettes
22 new Type-214T with Type-209 SSKs
27 FACs
Turkish navy will be a very modern and even stronger force by 2020
Up to 6 AAW Destroyers
Up to 6 ? TF-2000
6000 tons AAW destroyer. Indigenously design derived/enlarged from the TF-100 design. 4 planned (2 others in option, but maybe unlikely due to financial constraint ?, a program of 3 $ billion). Expected to be commissioned round 2018/2022, with probable +/- 30 year of life, to remain in service until 2050.
+/- 16 Destroyers/Frigates (toward fewer but bigger and indigenously ships…
Up to 4 TF-100
Around 2500/3000 tons, Improved/enlarged Milgem corvette, with additional VLS missiles, maybe expected around 2016-2020.
4 Barbaros (Meko 200)
(Barbaros, Orucreis, Salihreis, Kemalreis). 3200 tons, 116 meters. Commissioned by 1995/2000, with probably +/- 30 year of life expected, to be retired around 2025/2030 and replaced by
4 Yavuz (Meko 200)
(Yavuz, Turgutreis, Fatih, Yildirim). 3000 tons, 110 meters. Commissioned by 1987/1989, with probable +/- 30 year of service expected, to be retired by 2017/2019 and directly ? replaced by the four TF-100 ships ?
8 “G” (US O.H.Perry)
(Gaziantep, Giresun, Gemlik, Gelibolu, Gokceada, Gediz, Gokova, Goksu). 4000 tons, 135 meters, Ex-US Frigates (built during 1980’s). Transferred by 1997/2003, upgraded (GENESIS program) by 2007/2001. Likely to remain in service until early 2020’s.
Considering that during this 2010’s decade the U.S. Navy will remove from service more than 25+ O.H. Perry frigates, it is possible ? that the Turkish navy receives additional Perry's FFG.
But now this is unlikely because:
- Turkey wishes to develop its naval shipbuilding industry and build its own warships.
- The Turkish now see Perry’s as old/ageing ships.
+/- 8 Corvette (toward a full renewal)
Up to 8 Ada
(Heybeliada, Buyukada, Burgazada, Kinaliada, Uzunada, others not yet named). 2000 tons, 99 meters.

yes i always , always thought of same doctrine , very strong air force and navy , when your airforce and navy destroys air and navy and keeps control and skies is under your countrol then you can do anything you want to land , destroy their sams , bombard their tanks , but im hoping we get an AC along with helicopter carriers

Depending on Turkey's interests. ACs are an extension of the country's economy sort to speak. You need ACs if your economy is so big it needs to be protected world wide. Thailand got an AC for prestige and it just sits there doing nothing in the docks and only rarely does it even load AirCrafts in it.
Armies are a means to an end not an end. If Turkey needs to protect its interests in far away lands to safeguard its economy then yes it will need an AC then which is an investment for interest which in return helps Turkey's economy. If not and it only needs to protect its interests and economy in its immediate zone and region then the current military prowess of Turkey will suffice to do that job.

Its not about india.
Its saudi.
Many among u think saudi should have helped pakistan by buying al-khalid.
But they went for kafir maal anyway, because kafir tech is better - the land of mecca thinks.
