Turkish LHD programme gathers momentum
Turkish shipbuilder SEDEF has told Jane's that the Turkish Navy should have its new landing helicopter dock (LHD) two years earlier than originally expected and confirmed that the company is currently in negotiations to build a second LHD.
SEDEF's defence industry manager Selim Bugdanoglu told Jane's that at the moment a formal tender for the second vessel "is planned for around the date of launch for [first-in-class vessel] Anadolu", which is currently set for January 2019.
The project's roots stretch back just over a decade, to a Request for Information that was issued in April 2007, followed by local bid submissions in early 2010 and the selection of a joint SEDEF/Navantia proposal in late December 2013.
Why would we need an AC?I hope it is true, that momentum is needed. I am sceptic about second vessel though. If we really gonna go for another, it should be a real aircraft carrier not a LHD.
Why would we need an AC?
For our neighbours,we dont need ACs because there are no other angles which are closer then from our territory.For to be able to hit certain targets from an unexpected angle. For example our not so friendly neighbours direct their systems towards Turkey, they are much weaker to attacks from other angles. Opening more fronts will make more problem for them. ACs are meant for attack, they are better at that.

ACs(very expensive in costs and operation) are for countries which have Blue Navies or the ambition to and since we dont have the ambition to form a Blue Navy,we really dont need them.
Our LHDs(2) can carry at least 8 F 35Bs each which should be enough incase of.
Even Japan a Blue Navy country doesnt have an AC.
