I'm wondering where is the CIWS in the front ? no phalanx or no Gokdeniz ? the update was supposed to have 2 CIWS, not sure if there will be enough space for 16 Atmaca between the two mast ? what you guys think, otherwise, she looks amazing !
Place where Gökdeniz is supposed to be is empty in the photos so it'll probably get installed later? And it looks like at least 1 rack for Atmaca has been installed. Everything else seems to be on it already.I'm wondering where is the CIWS in the front ? no phalanx or no Gokdeniz ? the update was supposed to have 2 CIWS, not sure if there will be enough space for 16 Atmaca between the two mast ? what you guys think, otherwise, she looks amazing !

That looks so busy, as if we stuck something to any open space we could find
Two radars were rotating coherently. 360degree covering , no gap.
Just felt the need to share this, counting down the days…
TCG Oruçreis underwent her first voyage after her MLU. Finally.
Egypt will pay 260 million euros for maintenance and integrated Logistic Support services for their 2 FREMM class frigates in a 10-year agreement.
Do we know the cost regarding maintenance and other related services of the I-Class or Ada-class?
It says acceptance tests completed and this test demonstrated the system aligning and ‘arresting’ the heli. So, like you said, there must be some arresting test in adverse conditions down the road, I presume.Since this is a first time LIDAR is used on the ship instead of laser beacon on the heli, i am wondering how good the system is in adverse weather where the air is literally filled in with thousands of water particle causing wrong detection. Maybe they have a paper published like some aselsan products?
Thanks. It seems there is no lidar. I was fooled by a twitter account that spread lies for clicks.It says acceptance tests completed and this test demonstrated the system aligning and ‘arresting’ the heli.

13 million per year, if including maintance of electronics or anything aboard with spares is quite a reasonable or good price.Egypt will pay 260 million euros for maintenance and integrated Logistic Support services for their 2 FREMM class frigates in a 10-year agreement.
