Türkiye is a country that produces 50 Warships simultaneously
Having an industry capable of producing everything from Aircraft Carrier to Nuclear Submarine will allow the Turkish Navy to transition from a Green Water Navy to a Blue Water Navy within 5-6 years
Even now, the Turkish Navy is in the top 10.

Well that's not true as there was a bunch in the middle east off Iran just recently.
Where Are The Aircraft Carriers: July 13, 2026
The blockade is back on tomorrow with more than 20 U.S. Navy ships on station and available in the region.www.twz.com
4 in maintenance, 3 deployed, 2 docked waiting orders, 2 in training missions.
Your credibility is terrible.
Um China needs to do carrier maintenance too....why are you forgetting to mention that? They just lost 1/3 of their carrier ability.
China conducts first carrier maintenance at Yulin
China conducts first carrier maintenance at Yulin

Recent satellite imagery confirms that the People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) aircraft carrier Shandong entered a purpose-built dry dock at Yulin Naval Base on Hainan Island in January.
This marks the first occasion that a PLAN carrier has undergone maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) operations outside the northern Dalian shipyard.
The development represents a significant evolution in China's carrier support infrastructure and operational posture in the South China Sea.
Janes analysis of a satellite image captured on 7 February shows Shandong in a 370 m dry dock with visible work on its flight deck, including the removal of deck markings and at least one flight deck section.
Theis suggests that substantial maintenance work is under way on the 70,000 tonne carrier, which has been homeported at Yulin since its commissioning in December 2019.
Epic American meltdown.
Yes you had 4 operational in the Middle East. Why was there no carrier in the Chinese sea in February? I keep getting told we have 11 carriers. I know you don’t like reading this but I’m going to inform the readers on here. . Half of them US carriers are not even deployable This i was pointing out to people who scream 11. At least 5 of those 11 carriers are to be decommissioned by 2030.. leaving the US with 6 operational carriers as building a new one takes time.. just cause it takes US years to repair its ancient ships for maintenance doesn’t mean it’ll take the same amount of time for China.
2 different countries Pal.

Oh so now you are quickly backtracking from 2-3 to half!
Why aren't most Pakistani fighter jets flying 5 hours daily instead of sitting idle on the ground?
Does that suddenly mean they can't? Or does it just mean there isn't an urgent need to do so?

If I recall correctly, Turkey plans to build a 60,000-ton unmanned carrier, powered by four American General Electric engines. The accompanying aircraft are likely waiting for the U.S. to sell F-35s. As for the nuclear submarine you mentioned? I haven’t seen your plan yet.I am not talking about fairy tales based on paper projects

It is not really a carrier actually, it is designed by Spain and is called Juan Carlos class and even Australia has 2 of these LO1 and LO2 HMAS Canberra and HMAS Adelaide and they are LHD class ships or amphibious helicopter landing
ships...

Unmanned?
We're talking about an aircraft carrier right? Not some drone suicide vessel.

Why you keep lumping China and India together to compare with US ? It doesn't make sense as they are neither allies nor friends and the difference is huge.
