We can see the section of the module for the 4th unit in the first picture

Good news let's see a faster launch for the 4th unit
 
We know that aselsan hızır anti torpedo system will be installed,so there will be passif- aktif sonnar on the back of the ship,does it effect the rhib boats carried at the back also
 
Yes a ship has always her sea trials first before installing rest of the systems and than general trials follow
Currently even engine of Burgazada hasnt installed. When its focused on the picture on fore of helo deck, it can be seen weldings havent been completed yet, only temporary weldings to keep blocks together.

The sea trials happen stage by stage, we cant say all of the sea trials have completed before installation of the system. Rather it has a syncronized schedule with installation of systems . Yet sea trials cover from the simplest chain locker tests to full sea trials.
Edit on advance;
It doesnt mean the shipyard couldnt happen it to schedule. The priority is to empty the slipway for kınalıada,majority of minor blocks of her already has been cut and ready to be erected. While burgazada may continue in a drydock for rest of installation with smaller installation cranes.
 
Hope to see the next larger FFG from turkey like the Iver Huitfeldt-class frigate of the Dutch navy
 
Second LST very good

However I would like to see 4-6 of these units

If Turkish navy wants to lift a marine brigade over a long distance they need more LST to carry the equipment and men
