As we have written, the Turkish frigates Istanbul (F-515) and Orucreis (F-245) are escorting the aircraft/helicopter carrier Anadolu, which transported 1000 marines to Germany for the Steadfast Dart 2026 exercise, here filmed in the Port of Kiel.

On the part of the route from Spain to Germany, the armada encountered strong sea turbulence and the effects were probably visible on the mast of the F-515, on the dome of the ESM ARES-2NV(2)E.

Also note the details on the modernized Orucreis (F-245) as a "guide" and the photo below from our tribute to the Turkish program published in the issue of Flight No. 48 May 2024.

Turkey seems to be doing wonderful with their modernization and R&D and appears to be much better positioned , with respect to their Navy and Indigenous SAM production

Impressive Engineering effort by Turkish Engineers to not only fulfill need for Turkish Navy but also contributed to Pakistan's Milgem Project and Jinnah Class Frigates

Turkey is leaps and bound ahead of Pakistan in Engineering "Productivity" our projects done locally seems to take a fairly long time

The regional thaw in relation with Egypt has been great move for Turkey

Hopefully Turkey will find common ground with Greece , I think there is potential to build bridges. I think Turkey being involved in Europe it is possible to develop positive ties because I don't remember a direct conflict between two nations for very long time.



For Turkey the main issue is really The Israeli (causing wars) and certain rouge elements near Iraq-turkey border, but Turkey has resolved majority of these issues in recent times with respect to rouge elements near iraq border



But look at amazing Engineering work being done in Turkey , they are 100% one of Top Nations of World in Central Euro-Asia
