The ship seems butterface to me, got superb first half, but rear half seems like done as a scratch. There seems a lot of things that will go through correction in the rear half. Also not very pleased with removing Nazar system on the aft. This should have been the design passed as conceptual design and now going through contract / functional design phase. I think we will see the final version somewhere in SAHA Expo.
i would rather ramjet/scramjet missiles
I wonder why everybody visits Armerkom DPO and not ASFAT. I thought ASFAT designed/will design the TF-2000.
Does Turkiye aslo have or has been worked on the tech that can lunch missiles from underwater from submarines? I never heard about such projects but its so important about submatines capabilities like Milden .
I love the flexible payload approach in the design of this ship. Although we have seen some changes in the superstructure, especially in the main mast, the design approach has never compromised this. The current one has almost the capacity of a mini-LPD. Multiple containers capacity and power infrastructure can be provided, multiple unmanned surface and underwater vehicles and systems can be deployed, multiple crane systems for launching and retrieval, multiple RHIB boats can be used in this section, and the integrated hangar structure will allow more than two rotary wing platforms to be carried inside the ship. A ship being designed with this capacity will certainly offer additional living quarters and operational areas.
İt is earlier design

It was planned in March 2023 (18th), i must have said it back then but the facility also requires an upgrade, likely this process was delayed therefore the construction of test block.From MSB(MoD) 2023 annual report:
"Within the scope of the MİLDEN Project, which will be carried out at Gölcük Shipyard Command, the construction of the Test Block is planned to start in 2024, and construction activities are planned to start in 2025."
Test block was originally slated to be built from 2023, which was later revised to 2024 few months back. Defence Turkey mentions this month.
MİLDEN Projesinde Test Bloğu İnşasına Mart Ayında Başlanılması Bekleniyor
Sahip olacağı üstün özellikler ve Denizaltı Filosuna kazandıracağı yeni kabiliyetlerle Türk Denizaltıcılık tarihinde yeni bir sayfa açacak ve gerek inşa gerekse donatımında kullanılacak teknolojiler açısından Türk Savunma ve Havacılık Sanayine adeta çağ atılacak Milli Denizaltı (MİLDEN) Projesi...
Probably Hisar
