Recep Tayyip Erdogan boasted about the new Turkish armaments program in the context of the grand idealism of the Blue Homeland, as reported by SKAI’s Istanbul correspondent Manolis Kostidis.

“Last week we started the programs that will strengthen us more in the Blue Homeland. With the MILGEM program, we built the corvettes and frigates of our country that are 100% domestically produced… We already have 5 such ships, and the construction of another 7 continues. Also, with the experience we gained with this program, in Istanbul we started the construction of the first anti-aircraft defense cruiser, and the first welding of the first submarine took place at the Golcuk shipyard domestic design and production. Also the our national aircraft carrier which will be built will be the “big brother” of TCG Anadolu which we have” snapped Tayyip Erdogan.

“With these plans, Turkey will be charged, and we will have met our critical needs. We will continue to work with determination to be a Turkey that gives confidence to its friends and inspires fear in its enemies.” stressed the Turkish president.
