Yes, I had followed many of the things you mentioned, but I also stopped following because I no longer understand what Greece is trying to do. You are a member of the EU, a member of NATO, and you are not really excluded by the West like Türkiye is. When I think about this, I say, “If they really wanted to build a ship, they could get systems and technology transfers from everywhere.” But the result? Buying ready-made and second-hand ships from other countries.
I gave the TCG Anadolu task force as a future example. As far as I remember right now, the İstif-class more specifically the TCG İstanbul still does not have the Quadpack system. It will probably be updated soon; for now, while it is still in the navy’s hands, it is essentially in a phase of naval testing and experience-gaining. From what we can see right now, a Greece and Türkiye conflict is not close, and that’s why I gave an example from the future for something that could happen later because if we think 4 or 5 years ahead, at least 1 or 2 TF-2000s will be in the water, or 1 will be launched and, like the TCG İstanbul, will be in testing and experience gaining with the navy. And the İstif-class ships will have the Quadpack VLS system.
If we really look at it, it’s very obvious that this will not happen anyway. I mean, what do you expect from a war scenario drawn up in two minutes on a forum? As I said, just by looking at the technical data, I said that even in the future, the Greek navy alone would have a very hard time having the capability to saturate just with its navy. And even with simple reasoning, the TCG Anadolu has no business in the Aegean anyway.
Let’s hope no conflict breaks out.
claiming he is not signing anything (except for the F-35 and Black hawk). Many say it's more of an internal fight between Mitsotakis and Dendias. Many also say it's because Dendias doesn't want to be accused in the future of signing costly deals.
