Turkey; TF-2000 Air defense Frigate Program update
Turkey's Ministry of Defence Undersecretariat for Defence Industries (SSM) is planning to kickstart its next-generation TF-2000 anti-air warfare frigate program in the coming months, with plans under way to launch the design phase of the project by the end of the year.
The TF-2000 project aims to provide the Turkish Naval Forces with up to six frigates at an estimated cost of between $.6 billion and $3 billion, with entry into service planned from around the end of the decade. The locally built frigate design, expected to displace more than 6,000 tonnes, will have a strong anti-air warfare bias centred on a multifunction radar and a medium-range area air-defence missile system.
The SSM was unable to progress the program to the next stage until the Turkish Naval Forces completed an assessment of which version of Raytheon's Standard Missile would be most suitable for the new frigate. This assessment has now been concluded, with the navy opting to continue with the SM-2.
Due to the large scope of the program, a decision has been made to split it into three phases, beginning with a design phase, followed by construction of a prototype ship, and then finally serial production.
