What's new

Turkish Naval Forces (DZKK)

Guys any plans for an Aircraft Carrier ??? :D

PN will also go for an AC as soon as our Defense budget hits $20-25 billion which would be by 2025 at max.

No man. But there's an ongoing LHD project. Thé design will be NAVANTIA's Juan Carlos. But it won't have a ski-jump. It will be 10 meters longer than Juan Carlos. It will have 28,000 tonnes displacement. F35B fighters will be stationed aboard. The entry into service is expected to be 2020 if I am not mistaken.
 
TNF-Naval Task Force Barbarossa (TDGG) has conducted a port visit at Dakar/SENEGAL between April 03-08 2014. During the visit, DZKK Fleet Marine Force (Amphibious Naval Infantry) has demonstrated Seize&Secure, Firefighting, Damage Control and Multinational Maritime Security Training Centre of Excellence trainings aboard TCG Heybeliada (F511, Ada-class) to personnel of Senegal Navy.

The Turkish Naval Forces (Turkish: Türk Deniz Kuvvetleri), or Turkish Navy (Turkish: Türk Donanması) is the naval warfare service branch of the Turkish Armed Forces.

The navy can trace its lineage back to the first Turkish fleets to sail the Aegean in the late 11th century, the fleets of the Anatolian beyliks in the 14th century, and, more immediately, to the Ottoman Navy. However, the modern naval traditions and customs of the Turkish Navy can be traced back to 10 July 1920, when it was established as the Directorate of Naval Affairs during the Turkish War of Independence led by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. Since July 1949, the service has been officially known as the Turkish Naval Forces.

As of 2014, the Turkish Navy had a reported active personnel strength of 48,600; this figure included an Amphibious Marines Brigade as well as several Special Forces and Commando detachments. The navy has approximately 215 ships in commission and 51 maritime aircraft.

Can Pakistan, KSA, UAE and Turkey develop jointly:
7000 Tons Destroyer
3500 Tons Frigates
1850 Tons Corvettes
0830 Tons FAC
Other needed Military and commercial equipment

Although Pakistan might not be in the condition of JV but I wish if KSA along with UAE, Oman, Yemen, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar and Bahrain in a single Arab State. Also this Arab State along with Egypt, Libya, Alegria and may be Morocco and Tunisia to work with Turkey on JV like:
7000 Tons Destroyer
3500 Tons Frigates
1850 Tons Corvettes
0830 Tons FAC
Other needed Military and commercial equipment

Also on Submarines:
3500 Tons SSK
1850 Tons SSK
0830 Tons Coastal SSK
110-210 Special Force Submarines
Rescue and other types of Submarines

1.Our naval ship-building is picking up. We have been building some craft for BN and are now looking for exports in the ME. Our commercial ship-building and exports are becoming popular in Europe.

2. Because of the availability of skilled manpower and low costs Bangladesh could be a good base for developing JV with Turkey, Pakistan, Malaysia and Indonesia. Let us pray for a right political climate.

Sounds like Nishan_101?
 
But KSA, UAE and may be Oman needs that. Also instead of buying very old Type 209 instead to work with Turkey for JV on Submarines as well.
