This is not a test. Neither an official test where SSB or DzKK is present nor a factory test. This is a stunt for the media.
No there are 64 cells. There should be a fourth row behind the mast.There are 48 Cells btw behind the main mast. You can make out the third row

So 32 Cells in the front and 48 Cells behind the main mast.
Wouldn’t say adding 16 more Cells gonna save cost but what do I know.
Would add costs though to integrate Atmaca into it. So again doesn’t seem to reduce cost.Putting 16 cells instead of 16 side launchers might make it more compact
No there are 64 cells.
You also need those cells for Gezgin don't youWould add costs though to integrate Atmaca into it. So again doesn’t seem to reduce cost.
Gonna guess the current setup has its reason future planning wise instead of the Navy going, „ let’s cut costs“.
There should be a fourth row we can't see it from this perspective because of the main mast.There are three rows of 16 cells in that picture so either the navy made a mistake or it’s 80 Cells.
Thought you meant all total 64. Then it is cleared up.There should be a fourth row we can't see it from this perspective because of the main mast.
Ok, I'm terrible at paint but this should give some perspective.

Nope total 96 cells. 32x in the front and 64x in the middle.Thought you meant all total 64. Then it is cleared up.
Where are Atmaca lunchers? Will they aslo lunch them from VLS ?In the last shared design of TF-2000, there are differences in the ÇAFRAD sequence.
3 different (UMR, AYR, ÇFR) radar arrays consisting of 4 fixed faces have changed in the new design.
While UMR maintains its place on the ship, the AYR sequence above it is not included on the ship.
I dont think so , if they made it shorter at 149 meter and looking at image , this is 48 vls middle and 32 at front (80 total)Nope total 96 cells. 32x in the front and 64x in the middle.
bro Cenk perhaps has a diameter of 1+ meter , so its impossible , only if they design VLS deliberately for CENK like N korea did in submarine and place few of them like 5 or 6 .Can the VLS Cells also fire Tayfun or Cenk?
Major East Asian guided missile „destroyers“ from JP, KOR, CN are cruisers in size >10,000+ t displacement.I dont think so , if they made it shorter at 149 meter and looking at image , this is 48 vls middle and 32 at front (80 total)
I dont like that they make it shorter. A destroyer at least should be 150 meter . Other japan and s Korea navies are building 15000 ton destroyers .
They must build 155 meter and 48 x 48 VLS
There should be a fourth row we can't see it from this perspective because of the main mast.
VLS is loading…
TCG Istanbul is expected to sail to the Black Sea in the coming days to complete some important tests. Hisar D RF firing from MİDLAS can be expected to be carried out within the next week, it will be useful to follow NOTAM broadcasts.
