MDAS, Gezgin and Hisar/Siper for the Navy become more important ever single day that passes.
With Trakya being put on hold to divert funds towards Istif and TF-2000 and with Istif already seeing exstensive delay, date for FOC of the first ship, TCG Istanbul, most likely being around the end of 2022 or even into 2023. The Navy and Government need to overthink the design of the following three ships. Through the delays of the Istif-Class we will also see delays for the TF-2000 Destroyer.
Project with low piority need to be put on hold and those funds diverted into Frigates and Destroyers.
The Navy is seriously lacking in AAW and Land Strike Roles. We can't wait until 2030s to gain those capabilities with only the TF-2000 Destroyer Class. If we want to push our demands through in the Eastern Mediterranean and Aegan we need to seriously bolster the Navy in those departments.
