What's new

Turkish Naval Programs

Out of the all Muslims country's turkey is the one to lead it, Pakistan has too much corruption yes we have nukes but a spineless goverment can't even politely ask US to stop bombing us so Pakistan is out of the question

Turkey is respected by everyone and they have guts, and guts are enough

One day I hope Turkey is not Muslim country but Islamic country, then a LHD will be equivalent to a carrier

When Ottoman was weak they still inflicted heavy losses on enemy because they had faith

Today turkey is a very powerful country I hope they regain faith to push further

Western country's always like to remind Turks remember bad times of Ottoman Empire by quoting last few years only but forget 400 years of glorious history

One day I hope Turk can regain its position because many Muslims from subcontinent gave their everything for Ottoman Empire
Sorry, you don't happen to be a powerful country by building an AC or building a 1$ Billion palace.

We need to improve education system, improve science and R&D efforts, became fully industrialized, raise GDP/Capita, secure energy needs, being self-sufficient. Then you complement it with an even greater military.

Let's build an AC but can not withstand to a sanction.

We have other things to do, before building an AC just for fantasy.

Bro, having a vision for the future is not equal to producing an AC.

I will just skip the resources, technology, adopting new doctrine, maintenance costs, the need of the suplementary ships (as an AC operate in a carrier battle group) and training of the crew.

Do we have overseas territory which needs protection ?

Do we have any serious investment like oil rigs far away from home ?


Can we bypass UNSC and unilaterally invade a country ?

So...what will be the practical use of an AC ? Or we just gonna sail on the Oceans and say that "we have an AC" ?

2 LHD is enough for us to protect our interests in the Mediterranean sea and as a deterrent against regional countries.

China and India have all its things ?

No, so why ? Because their aircraft carriers (AC) and nuclear submarines (SLBM) will be ‘the first wall’ of their own safety against any enemy in the whole world.

Brother Turkish state keeping their plans as secret, even our enemies dont know what is Turkish state's target but just guess, state is the not ignorant they are know better than you and me and of course they make plan according to their capabilities and targets. So our worries are littile exaggerated.

Brother we have to make plans for short time, medium time and long time period for interests of our state. If we just focus in short time period we will be missed many opportunuty for our future, if we just focus on today's problems and dont see future we cant leave in this world order. I mean We have to solve the problems ahead but also we have to make plans for next 20 years and 50 years otherwise world powers have deceived us with small problems and we will be Retreat to our own shell and had trouble inside until we divide piece by piece.

So called our allies are not our friends they behave just according to their interests and future plans, they are dreaming to exploit our area, if we coundt overcome today's problems and dont make plan for the future we will be surrendered.

You mean we are not ready or we are weak to do something big, you say all what Turkish state try to do things are just a dreams, but this Israel was a just a dream of Theodor Herzl but this small guy destroyed our caliphate with help of westerns and founded israel and this zionists still has a big plan called as Great Israel which will be settled on Syria, jordan, Lebanon, Iraq, Iran and Turkey and they still work on it to realize. Also Ertugrul Gazi was just dreamed Ottoman empire and he and his family done it.

I mean who is working much they reach of their target, if you have no vision and no target you will be nothing, if you have big dreams you cant imagine where you can be reach.

All strong countries keep working with Arabians, Africans and other countries so that make strong themselves. Without strong naval forces can you make a strong policy with overseas countries ? no right ? We have strong relationships with many overseas countries like Qatar, Albania, Somalia etc. also we have military base overthere. We have future plans and we act according to it, if we dont invest in some technologies we coundt be successfully, You can see Qatar as example, we have to protect Qatar today but we dont have aircraft carrier, if we would be have aircraft carrier it would be so easy...

However we have to solve today's problems also we have to make plans to future, if we decived with those small problems we will be surrendered and we will have to be sign lozan and a lot of bad agreements again, according to those agreements we will be weakaned and divided piece by piece. So there is no way for us, we have to be strong or we have to be strong....
Ok bro,you focus on the future,ill focus on the present.

China has ambitions on South Chinese sea, also they are a member of UNSC, they are on the verge of becoming a super power.

India....i don't know much about India.

And let's assume that AC will be "the first wall" of their defense....Bro, they are operating in the Ocean, we are operating in the Mediterranean.

Brother Turkish state keeping their plans as secret, even our enemies dont know what is Turkish state's target but just guess, state is the not ignorant they are know better than you and me and of course they make plan according to their capabilities and targets.

Bro, state is not an holy being. It's being managed by people like you and me. They do mistakes, they do right things.

Every state that employs a CBG does it from the same reason. For projecting power overseas. If you have no reason and political capability to project power overseas. Then there is no actual meaning for employing a CBG.

We will always be a secular Muslim country.

No, they have aircraft carriers - AC - for this (The beginning of the end).

For this never to happen again.

To the 21st century, the Mediterranean sea is naval prison (An Achilles' heel) for all naval fleet, brother.

China and India are countries of 1.3 billion people each. The first is soon going to be the world's biggest economy and the second is the fastest growing major economy and currently in the top 5 or 6. Both are nuclear powers and both are space powers. Both have an open access to the world oceans. Both have much bigger potential to waste resources on such big projects while Turkey doesn't. Even with their bigger resources and huge population it took them many years to build a working AC which if I remember well are just refurbished Soviet rusty buckets which you can't compare to their American or French/British competitors. Turkey is as big as Germany while having a 4 times smaller economy and numerous times smaller exports, industrial, technological and scientific capacity. Turkey has no huge international conglomerates operating worldwide, it has a bad educational system producing very few top quality specialist a lot of whom doesn't even stay in Turkey but migrate West where they have better chances to work and develop. Half of Turkey's population have never read a book in their lives but think they know everything. They think Germans and Westerners are jelous of a bridge or an airport built in Istanbul (things most of them won't use because they can't afford to pay the toll tax for the bridge yet alone flying somewhere around the globe from the new airport) while Germany is decades ahead in almost everything. A nation like this needs education, needs new jobs, needs internal security and prosperity, not an aircraft carrier for showing off how great we are. Ps To build 4 corvettes took 12 years... I see we have plans for an LHD, frigates and submarines. Let's first start building them and actually finish them before speaking big words.

But bro State is deeper than you and me think, make a decision is not easy and decide is not belong to one person.

There must be Valid reasons for AC, we have to wait and understand.

That's how it is supposed to be but today i'm not sure....we will see in the future. I believe top brass will make Erdoğan to understand that there is no need for an AC.

Let me remind you operating a CBG would take up %20 percent of our entire budget....i'm not even talking about building one.

And let's put this here.

No AC for planned for the next 20 years. Let's close this case and discuss it 20 years later. :-)
