MIT (Turkish secret service) budget increased 32% to almost 1 Billion TL.
 
Turkey’s navy and national intelligence organization MIT have agreed to jointly procure a high-tech ship for collecting electronic intelligence from newly arising regional threats in the Eastern Mediterranean. Turkish Undersecretariat for Defence Industries, or SSM, has been tasked for launching a local tender for the construction of the new ship using Turkey’s indigenous capabilities to their fullest extent.

“Turkey has earmarked $120 million for the construction effort of Turkey’s first large scale intelligence ship.” a TR Defence source familiar with the programs of the Turkish Navy reported on Friday. “This will be a dedicated SIGINT/ELINT ship that will bear a number of advanced electronic capabilities, but will lack heavy weapons.”

Several countries currently use similar electronic intelligence ships for spying on the military transmissions of target states, finding and exploiting secret radar installations, eavesdropping on and decrypting sensitive information as well as actively jamming compromised enemy communications during war time. The ship is said to be used in conjunction with Turkey’s new Gokturk series of surveillance satellites planned for launch in 2013 and 2014.

Project will be managed by SSM and follow the successful footsteps of the Milgem program. Once complete in 2015, the ship will join Turkish Navy inventory but will be partially operated by MIT in line with Turkey’s widely varying intelligence gathering needs.

It is also expected to actively participate in NATO missions and exercises around the world.

Is it likely that they will 'okay' it?
I think it's proving to be a mistake. Even Juan Carlos Class isn't good enough considering years it will take us to build it.

We could acquire a wasp class from USMC by that time by FMS channel... much cheaper, and a much bigger ship

What do you think i'm talking about?
Spanish Juan Carlos class(candidate for LPD project) 27.000 tons
c_mg_8166_baja.jpg

US Wasp Class: 40.000 tons

As for recon ship i don't have much knowledge about survelliance equipment but it will probably be armed nothing more than a 127mm main gun, VLS for ESSMs and RAM... most probably torpedo countermeasures.

That's a LHD, landing helicopter dock not landing platform dock
 
@Ottoman-Turk
You shouldn't quote long messages, this is polluting forum.

LPD project have already turned into LHD, we want a bigger ship not like dokdo.
