TR Navy Naval Programs

[Strong AI]

Very misleading caption. Anyone would think that the whole project is completed. Only the Orucreis ship’s modernisation is completed. There are 3 more ships in the program that need to be upgraded.

They just quoted the Aselsan CEO.

ASELSAN President & CEO Ahmet Akyol emphasised the significance of this accomplishment, stating: “We are proud to complete the world’s most comprehensive MEKO-class frigate modernisation by renewing the 21 systems on TCG Oruçreis F245 with our advanced naval solutions. Drawing on this extensive experience, ASELSAN is capable of addressing the needs of all navies, with its innovative and effective naval systems gaining worldwide recognition. We will continue to provide the most advanced systems to our Navy and the navies of allied countries.”

Like you said, this is a modernization program, but they didn't mention that they completed the program. Did they?

Bro , just read the first paragrapgh as the caption. If I didn’t know what was actually done, I would think the whole Project was completed. It says frigates, in plural, and states that project was completed.

quote
ASELSAN published a press release to announce that it has successfully completed the BARBAROS-Class Frigates Mid-Life Upgrade (BARBAROS-MLU) Project by modernising 21 systems on TCG Oruçreis F 245 with advanced, indigenous solutions.

That looks like a typo, maybe you can reach out to them?

She was reclassed as a training and test ship last year. Interesting that it wasn't sent to Somalia instead. It should be a simple, small very short range OPV with two big guns for patrols.
