So,what does this satelite bring us,could you explain?

[...]aims to successfully test orbital operations, telemetry and telecommand communications, positioning, and payload communication capabilities.

“Our goal is to reach more than 100 satellites within five years and to put our Uluğ Bey Global Positioning System into service independently for Türkiye and all friendly and brotherly nations.”

While Uluğbey is the primary goal here there can be other modern day satellite services that can be provided with such low earth orbit satellites both in military and civilian domains.

• Internet communications like the Starlink
• Direct to Device mobile phone services
• Low latency communications for unmanned fighters
• Global radar that can detect objects in the air
• Satellite Electronic War

are among the services that maybe provided as capabilities improve

Launch dates for both missions are from last year. Could it be a typo?

Nope

D1 and D2 were sent last year. The recent one is D3, set to be sent with Transporter 16.

As part of ASELSAN’s Space-Based Internet of Things (IoT) solution, the second satellite in the series has been successfully launched into orbit.
The LUNA-2 CubeSat provides secure, reliable, and uninterrupted communications through low-power, wide-area data transmission capabilities.
With LUNA-2, a significant step has been taken toward enabling dependable IoT connectivity in hard-to-reach regions and enhancing Türkiye’s space-based communication capabilities.

“Starlink dediğimiz sistemin bir anlamda ciddi bir savunma uygulaması var. Bunu SpaceX’in sitesine girdiğiniz zaman da görebilirsiniz. Starshield diye yeni bir sekme açmışlar. Erken ihbar sistemi. Bizim Çelik Kubbemiz gibi onların da Altın Kubbe çalışmaları var. Bu da o proje için kullanacakları bir erken ihbar sistemi." "Sizin buradan fırlattığınız bir füze ile ilgili ABD’nin 30 saniye içinde haberi olabiliyor. Bu çok güçlü bir savunma kabiliyeti aslında."

Aren’t those satellites to small for most military purposes except communications and gps services?

They are test satellites probably lacking long term sufficient fuel and probably testing a small number of features each time. Starlink satellites were smaller in the beginning too.
