    This is not correct. Sterling is a deadweight compared to Li-Ion batteries. You will get less energy by burning all the fuel in the Sterling setup compared to a single charge of lithium-ion batteries that are placed in the space of the sterling engine and required tanks/machinery.

    PEMs are a real headache. Storing hydrogen and oxygen and refueling sub is a real pain in the ass. Sterling is also heavy and not space-efficient so it is not useful at all compared to Li-Ion batteries. A sub with Li-Ion batteries can stay underwater for an extended period compared to the...

    I understand Hisar but Atmaca will replace Exocets. Later Atmaca can be used by any ship with advent it is so easy to move Atmaca from Buraks to another ship. They are not even that expensive at 500k $ per missile. 4x Atmaca for Buraks will cost peanuts but will add so much firepower.
