This version is rather known as a prototype - evolving product. TN requires the quad-packing it is not something "optional" to be introduced in later configurations. I have stated this several times even months ago when people were claiming single or double packing: Navy wants the quad-pack, period.MILDAS will be integrated to TCG Istanbul this year and be subjected sea trials in 2023.MİLDAS’ta Hedef: Quad-Pack ve Seyir Füzesi Atım Kabiliyeti
Roketsan, Milli Dikey Atım Sistemi (MİLDAS) ve MİLDAS’ta kullanılacak hava savunma füzeleri için çalışmalarını sürdürüyor. MİLDAS’ın testi, bu yıl yapılacak.www.savunmasanayist.com
MILDAS equipped TCG Istanbul will have Hisar RF missile.
The aim is to finally give the MILDAS quad packable capability. Also all indigenous missiles that can be used in MILDAS will bu used in MILDAS.

Phase-0 : Let's have a national VLS and be able to integrate on a national ship.
Phase-0.5: Let's launch a national missile from national VLS, using national controller and national CMS
Phase-1: (where navy will truly accept the system): A proper national VLS supporting quad-pack* configurations with a quad-packable missiles.
Phase-2: Let's launch Siper (Actual Siper, optionally what is known as Block-1)
Phase-3: Let's launch Gezgin from VLS.
Navy wants all these phases and these will be accomplished, not as something to be called option or configuration. It hasn't emerged after the embargo of the Mk.41 but had planned for TF-2000 since years ago.
