Today ( sunday 18 may ) , i have visited TCG BÜYÜKADA , anchored beside S/Y SAVARONA . there were something noticable, i asked officers but there wasnt a clear answer could be due to their knowledge,
1. Instead of 8 harpoon launchers, there were just 4 2 x twin, one officer claimed there are "2 missiles" in each, but this sounds a bit awkwars ,size of tubes wasnt that large, or long
2. there werent 2 x triple torpedo launcher, but it was just 2 x twin
were those just mock ups for public, or if they got a problem with weight i am not sure
those launchers werent looking like mockups at all, fully connected to systems (Seems so from cables )
i have left the tour after some moment when speechs of tour guide (an officer ) began to be foolish and like making propaganda, let me mention this, his rank was too low even might be sergeant, cant our navy just put some high rank ,well informed officers there to tell better things ??
if you look at milgem class by the same perspective, you can also see harpoon launchers, there is just a design revision due to longing of ship hull, air intake of turbine shifted to aft ,so the launchers left so bare in there just behind of bridge deck ( same in milgem ) ,
i re
i remember the moments slept on top deck of that ship
