given the possible turkish enemies in the med, land-based maritime patrol and attack aircraft, land-based SSMs, and submarines this is a target unless they also build an escort group which i am sure tirkey cannot afford.

It’s obvious that the days of big ships is over.

The money is better spent on counterintelligence, SF, and smart missiles.

WWII was a long time ago. Just ask my daddy (active USMC 1944-1974). He’s seen some changes.
