Think of TF-2000 as a three-block program. Currently we are preparing for construction of 4 that will make the middle-tier AAW Destroyer functions. It will have a block with less weapon, sensors and multi-mission capabilities (through a multi-mission bay) version and an enlarged higher block version with more sensors, and better EW capability.
The outfitting is the most difficult stage of all. Looking at these pictures, I can't figure out if they have used fitted out blocks like Istanbul Naval Shipyard is capable of. I would say towards the end of the year we can see them fully outfitted and delivered to Navy in H1, and H2 2026 (or more like not commissioned but manned by Navy) and H1 2027 for the third. 6 months off seems plausible to me. Add 6 to 12 months per ship for sea trials and testing. 6 months offset is considered necessary due to logistics and manning the process of equipment installation / outfitting, port acceptance tests and so on.
