For what? To keep in hangar? How could wide winged takeoff and land from narrow deck?

One of the wings can overhang, that's no issue, especially when it is going to use catapult and arrestor.

They could make UAV's with collapsible wings.

In theory, couldn't the TDK only slightly dismantle these ships and replace it with modern components?

I know this article is from the Daily Mail (notoriously tabloid) and its over 9 years old, but surely other Navy vessels are being brought to Aliaga to be dismantled.

GE Signs Contract to Provide STM with LM2500 Gas Turbines to Power Pakistan Navy’s New MILGEM Corvettes


GE Marine announced it has signed a contract with STM (Savunma Teknolojileri Mühendislik Ve Ticaret A.Ş.), Ankara, Turkey, to provide LM2500 marine gas turbines to power the Pakistan Navy’s new MILGEM multipurpose corvettes. STM is the main propulsion system integrator for the MILGEM newbuilds.

In July 2018, the Pakistan Navy contracted for four MILGEM corvettes with ASFAT (Askeri Fabrika ve Tersane İşletme A.Ş.), two of them to be built in Turkey and the other two in Pakistan. Recent milestones for the Pakistan Navy’s MILGEM program include the keel laying of the first ship in Istanbul, Turkey, and the steel cutting ceremony for the second corvette in Karachi, Pakistan.

“We are delighted to provide the Pakistan Navy with our proven LM2500 gas turbine to power these new MILGEM corvettes,” said Kris Shepherd, Vice President, Marine Operations, GE Marine, Evendale, Ohio. “Our LM2500 gas turbines are reliably logging operating hours onboard the Turkish Navy’s four MILGEM corvettes, the first of which was commissioned in 2011,” he added.

The propulsion system for all the MILGEM ships consist of one LM2500 gas turbine in a combined diesel and gas turbine configuration with two diesel engines; total propulsion power is 31,600 kilowatts. Additionally, 24 LM2500s operate aboard the Turkish Navy’s Barbaros and Gabya class frigates. Worldwide, there are over 1,200 marine LM2500 gas turbines providing reliable power for 39 international navies and in countless industrial applications.

The LM2500 gas turbines for the Pakistan Navy’s MILGEM program will be manufactured at GE’s facility in Evendale, Ohio, U.S.A.

Only if they gave us right to repair and do maintenance of LM2500 in Turkey. Currently MTU and Avio does repairs of LM2500 engines. It should be our long term goal to nationalize the ship engines.

We should be building diesel navy ship engines by now....

I mean no disrespect but can you at least correct me?

We didn't had a serious development on domestic ship engines since Pendik-Sulzer got closed

I remember reading writing of a retired navy engineer talking about infrastructures they earned to Turkey for Turkey to repair, maintain its own navy ships locally. He said that wanted Turkey to have in house capabilities for repairing, maintaining LM2500 engines.

Pendik-Sulzer was the closest we have got in proper engine development, either say it was massacred by officials in 1999 - and later in 2000s by officials, it could have been revived in nearby future and it would provide at least the culture of engine production which would eventually lead to development of machinery for Turkish naval vessels in 2000s , and it is gone not revived.
However, as of i know both gas turbines and diesel engines, and transmissions are maintained by Turkish personnel, and as usually happens there are also foreigner technicians -especially on gas turbine- for several reasons.

There is already a shipyard, it is being upgraded.

We need our own marine turbine but we can kick start with some off the shelf Ukrainian stuff.

Clean Up - Do they still plan on using Phanlanx CIWS
View attachment 4478

This design is being worked on since 2016 or even earlier. And those CIWS are replaced with Gökdeniz already, yet the images are not shared.
There are few images with Millennium gun as well, but probably TN doesn't like it because of its dependency on an external FCR.
