New Generation National Heavy Torpedo AKYA to be launched with live warhead for the first time on 26 December!
During the weekly press briefing on the activities of the Ministry of National Defence held today, Rear Admiral Zeki AKTÜRK, Press and Public Relations Advisor, announced that the New Generation National Heavy Torpedo AKYA will be launched from the TCG Preveze submarine in the Gulf of Antalya on 26 December 2023.
The launch is expected to be the first time the AKYA torpedo with a live warhead will be launched from the TCG Preveze submarine to a previously decommissioned ship. (SINKEX)
I dont know where to post it so i post here at geopolitics Globalfirepower 2024 and Turkiye is 8th place

Ssn or Csg still are submarines with humans inside not super alien tech weapon and can e demaged or humans needs to be replaced and needs to eat . thats work for weak countries but with Turkiye tech or german, japan , S Korea those Ssng or Cgnc will sooner or later destroyed and there are just 6 of them not 60 . German had 200+ submarines and didnt implement total naval blockade , During massive war the quantity is over quality eveytime just like ww2 where German weapons were alot more advaced than soviets and americans .But didnt stop 100 000+ Tanks And 7 million+ soldiersThis is totally stupid. France is 11th? Give me a break. They have SSNs and CSG.
6x SSN can be sent on other side of the globe against a country (that doesn't have SSNs of its own, no matter how much tanks or fighter jets it has) and these boats can implement a total naval blockade for months, leading to a near collapse of the enemy's economy, hence likely ensuring defeat and achieving strategic objectives without significant bloodshed)
That is what real power looks like.
And this is exactly why I have been Advocating for SSN fleet for Turkish Navy instead of carriers.

An article about ULAQ KAMA, but only in turkish language.

Our ships are kinda narrow, we don't have that much space around the deck, otherwise yeah it's a nice solution.Do TCG Anadolu, Barbaros class, Gabya class and ADA Class need such launchers loaded with quad packed Sipers/Hisar? Or Levent would be enough?
No deck penetration
Rapid reload
Seems cheaper solution.

When you have desire, you could always find a place.Our ships are kinda narrow, we don't have that much space around the deck, otherwise yeah it's a nice solution.
To navy it is an AD system (like how they call Gökdeniz as Yakın Hava Savunma Sistemi but not Yakın Hava Savunma Topu)
Marlin USV has been assigned the pennant number 1101 with the prefix 'TCB', a code typically used for helicopters and UAVs. This suggests that TN views USVs as adjuncts rather than as actual ships. Despite this, the vessel has a flag on board, likely for ceremonial purposes.
Funny you brought this up.Many countries, chiefly US is using USVs in testing and even creating whole USV task forces under navy command. But a question, Is TCB1011 the first ever officially commissioned USV in a NATO navy? Considering it's not TCG but TCB can we even say "commissioned" ?
Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Bahriyesi.but what does that “B” stand for
I know TCG stands for Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Gemisi (Republic of Turkey’s Ship) but what does that “B” stand for?
Funny you brought this up.
Recently I’ve seen a short interview for the need of creation of a mutual robotic warfare command.
‘İnsansız Sistemler Komutanlığı’ artık bir ihtiyaç mı?
Türkiye için ‘İnsansız Sistemler Komutanlığı’ artık bir ihtiyaç mı? Türkiye, halihazırda birçok insansız hava, kara, deniz ve denizaltı projesi yürütüyor.www.savunmasanayist.com
Dr. Can Kasapoğlu is a non-resident senior fellow at Hudson Institute
He, in this short interview, points out the necessity for the creation of a mutual robotic warfare domain command.
He breaks down the need in three key areas
1- Military technologies are only successful as long as they are integrated with operational design and military doctrine. Therefore, conceptual work is a must to create a dominant operational design together with technological advancement.
2- MIR, MARLIN and various Turkish SUVs are designed by NATO standards and they’ve already proved themselves at some NATO exercises. Such a mutual command would be more efficient at contributing and operating at joint NATO operations.
3- Such a command would also have to assume the role of reviewing various robotic warfare trends, works and conflicts. All the learned and gathered data would also fall under the authority of this command to act upon accordingly.
