My friend this is DEARSAN 57m Tuzla Class Patrol Boat ( Yeni Tip Karakol Botu ) which you shared a pic.

dramatic music played with your video, Turk ... and imagine the Turkmens will be able to shoot AShMs from these ships! (if they indeed purchased the Otomats, they would need helicopter(s) for "mid-course updates")

Nice to see you here Turk

Do you have any updates on the two LST under construction and more importantly any pics??

Also when is the replenishment tanker going to get constructed ?
Thanks my friend :)
1-I heard that ADİK already started to cut steel sheet for two LST. I can show you about project for this time :)

But I can show you this pic. at 2017:

2- Navy Fleet Tanker Project for Pakistan will be ready before 2018. The First Steel Cut Ceremony was conducted on November 2013 and the Keel Laying Ceremony was conducted on March 2014 much earlier than the project schedule.

Hi Turk and welcome aboard to SDF.

I have a question on this pic. What are those banners or flags on the background represent? I'm just curious because the one on the far right looks kind of like the University of Alabama Crimson Tide logo.

LMM Missile Launching System (MLS)+
30 mm SMASH Remote Controlled Stabilized Naval Gun System
SMASH is a remotely operated stabilized weapon station fitted with 30mm Mk44 Bushmaster-II Canon.

SMASH configurations incorporate advanced features as remote operation, built-in electro-optic sensor system for autonomous operation, day and night operation, stabilized turret, automatic target tracking (detect, track and fire on the move) and ballistic computation.

SMASH System has a stabilized turret which enables the line-of-sight of the gun to be aimed at the target at all times. Due to the stabilization feature, the system can perform precise firings against stationary or moving targets while the platform is on-the-move.

System can be operated remotely by using the remote gun control unit and hence provides gunner protection against counter fire. Besides, SMASH System is capable of firing 200 rounds per minute with its dual feed 30mm automatic cannon.

As opposed to fixed sight systems used on 12.7mm STAMP and 25mm STOP systems, SMASH incorporates a seperately stabilized electroptical suit which can move in elevation and azimuth axes relative to gun. This ensures effective firing at long distances by enabling line-of-sight stay on the target at all times, even during the firing where ballistic correction is applied to the gun. The separately stabilized electroptical sight also enables surveillance and target tracking without aiming the gun to the target.
General specifications of the System are:

  • 4/8 ready to fire Lightweight Multirole Missile (LMM)
  • Two-axis gyro stabilized turret
  • Automatic target tracking by EO Suite
  • Laser Range Finder for target ranging
  • High hit performance with fast reaction time
  • High level system automation for ease of use
  • Ease of integration into existing and new build FIBs
  • Flexible system architecture meeting different customer requirements
  • Low maintenance cost and high reliability
