Are there any news about combat success of switch blates?
We haven't heard from them so far?
Himars and javelins seem the most lethal weapons of the war.
They replaced frontal Gökdeniz 35mm with Phalanx that has own radar.
Those main radars of frigate would be blind and couldn't assist Gökdeniz so Autonomous Phalanx with own radar better solution IMO.

Radar for ASW? ( However IMO YTKBs need MAR-D /SUNGUR)
Light torpedoes have very limited range so their sonar will be enough in short range.
Notice that tiny sonobuoy from a helicopter can assist a torpedo.
Also Remember ASW rockets can't chase while torpedoes can maneuver.

Since they are built for ASW i would love to see light torpedoes on YTKBs..
