Which ship is it?

So Exhaust and flame won't cause fire hazard if missiles launched close to hull.
It's one of the Mekos. It shows where the starboard quarter Sea Zenith would be. This is a CGI Levent model added on a real photo.

Waovv. finally they realized , instead of two sided autocannon, 2x air defense system will suit modernization.

Oruçreis already have a Phalanx at the back, in total 2 autonomous CIWS with the Gökdeniz. Original plan was to have 2 Phalanxes.

It's a render/concept, Levent hasn't even started firing tests in no way will they install it on the Mekos undergoing MLU right now, it wouldn't even fit timeline wise.
Maybe Ada-Class MLU in a couple years.

Look at how long it took for Gökdeniz to be inducted into service in the Navy and that was a gun-based CIWS.

If some1 can enlighten me
Since when did Turkey have their own national GPS system? I thought only USA and China possessed such capabilities?

Translation:
The most important technology in the missile is that it can find the target with our own navigation system without GPS. National navigation and guidance ability, you cannot get this technology from any country. We no longer talk about range for our missiles. -ROKETSAN General Manager Murat İKİNCİ

A Glimpse into Alternative Positioning and Navigation

Alternative Positioning and Navigation (APN) refers to methods and systems used to determine position and guide movement without relying on traditional Global Positioning System (GPS) signals. This becomes essential in environments where GPS signals are weak, jammed, or non-existent. Here are some common APN systems:

  • Magnetometers: Measure Earth’s magnetic field to determine orientation.
  • Acoustic Systems: Underwater navigation systems such as sonar that use sound waves.
  • Dead Reckoning: Estimates position based on known starting position, time, speed, and course.
  • inertial Navigation Systems (INS): Uses accelerometers and gyroscopes to estimate position, velocity, and orientation based on motion sensors.

The key is to combine multiple sensors and data sources (sensor fusion) to provide reliable and accurate positioning and navigation, especially in challenging environments where GPS might be unreliable or unavailable.


And now you can look here:

Problem with a lot of methods like ins and dead reckoning etc. Is errors accumulate, meaning, unless you use another thing to periodically determine your global position, you will keep going off the mark slowly and steadily, which gives you a maximum range before you get lost. Terrain mapping and kalman filters etc can counteract that

If you read the above news piece, you will see that Atmaca anti ship missile, in 2020, has managed to hit a surface target from considerably high range with perfect accuracy without using GPS. This shows the high level of target acquisition capability Roketsan has achieved with INS.

The star tracker navigation system that Roketsan has , is capable of targeting with high precision during the night, and above 40K altitude during daylight.
They were perfecting the system by adding new algorithms to eliminate inaccuracies caused by vibrations and image distortions due to high dynamic medium in which this system is to be utilised.
Star tracker would be the ideal companion to INS guidance in missiles like Tayfun and Cenk.
He is very bullish with the statement he is making that we no longer need GPS to guide our missiles with high precision.
