Ballistic missiles with long range make sense when they have a nuclear warhead, otherwise it has not much impact compared to it's cost.

I hope the Tusas build TISU drone is a heavy lifter 0.7 Mach drone (to carry TRLG-230 and TRLG-300 rockets), more bang for the bucks with similar ranges
Nuclear, maybe not! Because nuclear weapons burn and destroy everything, leaving no usable loot. Is that all? No. It also leaves behind uncontrolled radioactive pollution. However, chemical or biological weapons are both lethal and more controlled for later.

You think you can loot a place you bombed with biological weapons? And what would you "steal" exactly?

Alright, by “usable loot” I assume you mean a takeover of an enemy territory after a nuclear attack by friendly forces which naturally will be risky for the latter as well due to radiation level.
However, if you are suggesting what I think you are suggesting on the last part, let me remind you that it’s more akin to a terror weapon rather than useful military applications and I, personally, consider it next to a genocidal weapon.
So, matter of practicality aside, can we accept our country adopt such a horrible way of warfare. Please let’s always remember this

The duration of action of biological and chemical weapons can be adjusted. Or it can be inactivated using agents such as antidotes, chemical neutralizers.

When the conditions are right, you can capture, clean and use the empty but not destroyed cities and settlements with your soldiers.

to what end?

Edit: A more appropriate question would be, are you actually suggesting to use biological, chemical weapons on civilians dwelling in the buildings? Women, children, elderly alike? Just casually bomb them with chemical or biological weapons?

Chemical , biological or preferably nuclear alternative should be available and given the situation, should be used without the hesitation. As I can see , there is not single rule respected, no scrupuol nothing really . Turkey didn't make world as it is now but surely Turkey should work and be ready for such situation. Those situations will undoubtedly arise in relatively near future.

There's a doctrine of "Mutual Assured Destruction" I'm sure most of you are familiar with. It states that if both parties of a conflict have nuclear weapons in their arsenal, use of an atomic bomb from one side will ensure that the attacking side will also be destroyed by the receiver of the first attack. This concept of "MAD" provides the ultimate national security to the country. However, neither nuclear nor other non-conventional weapons cannot(should not) be used for an invasion force to clear out the way so they have easy time traversing the territory. Furthermore, without nuclear warheads you cannot benefit from "MAD", as chemical or biological weapons don't have the scale of destruction that nuclear has for deterrence. The point is, nuclear warhead is indispensable for the utmost national security but other non-conventional warheads can't give you that.

We already know that our companies already works on kill vehicles. So of course it is not surprise that we work on defense systems against ballistic missiles. I expect our siper block 3 to be thaad equivalent.
If we can manage to fire it from our tf-2000 frigates, that would be perfect
Additionally we should also work on anti satellite systems.
Don't forget that USA destroyed a satellite 15 years ago. We have long way to go.
No need to worry ,but we should increase our speed.

While there are more than 20,000 nuclear warheads in the world, 40 thousand people lost their lives in 40 years in my country due to pkk terrorism.

What else are you worried about?

What happened in Iraq, Afghanistan, Africa and Syria?

I see this as unnecessary goodwill.

I am not counting the events in ww1, ww2, Çanakkale, Arabian peninsula yet.

In short, ballistic missiles can have a great impact on the enemy not only with nuclear warheads, but also with biological and chemical warheads.

So why are there so many nuclear weapons in the world?

So, Iraq, Syria, PKK atrocities are included in which class?

Isn't what's going on around here a crime of mass destruction?

My friend, if you are a Muslim in this world, west or east will not pity you. So it doesn't need much goodwill. Make your gun stand on the side.
I agree with this friend that we should have the scariest weapons in the world. We cannot leave ourselves to the mercy of others, history is full of painful examples of this, even our history 100 years ago is an example (The Turkish War of National Liberation).

Also, when we have so many enemies or friendly approaching enemies around us.

All right guys! Here's the thing!

In a heavily interdepended world biological weapon is a dumb idea. That's why you don't hear any country threaten with that. Rather they like to talks about nukes.

And about chemical agent... well! It is very useful to terrorize civilians. However, for tactical use not very special either. Because it doesn't destroy any critical enemy assets. And on top of that, all modern tanks, IFVs, APCs has NBC protection.

Now, SSN fleet and nukes are the real deal.
and has the ultimate and absolute deterrence against any conventionally superior adversary.
