No it is not. We have the highest firepower after US and UK within NATO which is more than enough and far higher than all ME, Eastern Europe, Africa nations and has global strike capabilities. I dont think any nation other than SK, Japan, India, Russia, China in Asia has that..
Please explain and expand your claim in details..it's welcomed
the National Intelligence Agency is the govermental intelligence agency more like the CIA of Turkey. But as for laws and tasks; the Bureau of Naval Intelligence is the priority given and front line intelligence agency responsible for "Foreign Intelligence and Counter Intelligence" by the definition of law.

620,000-650,000 is enough wich is like that today. The problem is at navy.
We used to have 56,000 personnel just a couple years ago. Now 48,000. Navy will hit 60k at future.

I agree with the navies personnel being low,i also think that the future fleet will be small too.Considering Turkey is a peninsula and all three seas are hostile.IMO 4 AAW frigates won't be enough.
I also think that Coast Guard needs more recruits too.Not enough for Turkey's 8000+ km shorelines.

I think it will expand. As for the AAW frigates, 4 ships might be just UOR. We probably will see new orders from Navy for TF-2000 after 2020.
Coast Guard is advanced but as you said, they need to expand the fleet.

Wondering if the Navy and Air Force is entirely professional? If so that would mean there are only 100.000 professionals in the army.
