Turkish Missile Programs

Well , German company HDW have accomplished concept design of bigger submarine that based on the design of U-214/212 , it's called U-216 with 4000 ton Displacement and it will have Vertical Launch System

Turkey plan an indigenous Development of Submarines which will be introduced after 2020, Turkey should go for a similar Concept like for a Convetional Sub like U-216 which is Capable to launch LACM from VLS !

Indeed, VLS would free up the torpedo tubes for .. torpedos. Plus, I would like to see SRBM :D
 
Yes it is.It has a 16 cell ballistic missile tube(VLS).Am i missing something?

Well ..... a ballistic missile submarine naturally should have a VLS .

The post you were replying to IMO was talking about SSN and SSK with VLS for CM launch .

VLS needs more diameter of sub and so more displacement. If you intend to acquire bigger submarines you can consider to put VLS on it. If we are talking about current status of our subs, torpedo tube lauched cruise missile is the only option. We can not operate so much bigger boats in our surruonded seas. The most optimum option to use cruise missiles on a sub is torpedo lunched method just like Israel do it. You can deploy the missiles on entire fleet so there will be no problem to launch more missile according to VLS method.
The importance of using torpedo tube is not giving its location to enemy, because through the torpedo tube, launcher takes the rocket away from sub and the get on the surface. But its easy to destroy sub (find its location and hit it) once its use vls.
 
@Kaan

Some anti ship missile has special specification like jammers, low altitude (1m over the water) or zig zag maneuvers etc. Have your missile something like that?

Even then the missile will not be taken far away from the submarine as to make any difference .
