Congrats to him for doing a good job. Hopefully his successor will be even better.
In an ideal Republic of Turkiye, a successor is rarely better. If a successful person was taken from a position, that was likely because they have got 'someone'.

Any progress on our cavitation project?

What about the Gezgin project it has become very quiet, Turkey urgently needs an equilalent to the Tomahawk Cruise Missiles. That would make a lot of things much easier. Especially with corvettes, submarines and aircraft carriers and hopefully in the future with the Milligem destroyers, this is the number one first strike weapon to conquer airspace in combination with drones.

Gezgin has never been "loud" tbh. It has been development for near a decade and only this year we got a small low quality image of what it could look like, maybe. It is one of the few unicorns we have that is not advertised. Not clear if it is very top secret or because development on it is very slow.

Gezgin is very important, Priority have also Gökhan Ramjet BVR Missile. Cakir and Atmaca are very usefull in the Aegean and eastern Mediterran Environment, but wee need Ramjet Mach 3 + AShM's which will have Ranges from 300 - 500 km and can be launched from Sea, Land and Air.

Like the Japanese ASM-3

That's right, but we urgently need Gezgin, so far we only have ballistic missiles that can perhaps reach a range of 800 - 1000km, in this case Tayfun. Cenk is also there for longer ranges, but there are only engine test launches with a dummy missile. Ballistic missiles are generally very poor precision weapons, even if they have developed very well over the years. We urgently need a long-range cruise missile that can deliver surgical strikes with a range of 800 - 1000km.
The USA has won its missions using only the Tomahawks to take out enemy air defense systems and radars + high value targets with a combination of drones.
Only then will it be possible to carry out flight missions with fighter jets in combination with drones once the airspace has been gained. But you all know that.

Gezgin needs to be stealth.
AGM-158B-2(JASSM-XR) type of stealth with Tomahawk kind of range.
And if it could hit ships that would be a pretty good cherry on top, but I'm not that picky. :D
