There are also lots of hi-tech hardware on Seahawk. Most of which weren't produced in Turkey before.

So we'll be able to mount UMTAS and Atmaca missiles, possibly Akya torpedoes on DzKK seahawks.

This may possibly lead to a complete Turkish equivalent of Seahawk... We can possibly replace electro-optics aswell. AF235 would look good or SAR, or maybe mildar... I don't know

possibilities are limitless

Akya? Afaik seahawks use lightweight torpedoes

it's just a matter of scale bro...

Technically due to weight, SH-60 can carry up to 2 AKYAs, 3 if you push the limits, but just in theory. But due to its length, there's no other way to mount it on seahawks rather than on external hard points. But it has a length of 6.5 meters around. Considering its class, weight, sensors. There's great risk that it may damage the proppeler of the torpedoe when the heli is airborne, especially if on a cruise speed.

I'm not considering that, but there will probably be a scaled down "shrunk" version. Like DM2A4

it can easily lead to a lightweight torpedo development.
