Hrm. Subs only.

I really think we're at the point where you need heavyweight speed and range for airdropped and surface launched ASW torpedoes. Modern nuclear and lithium battery subs can have enough acceleration to outrun/exhaust even a Mk48 if you're not close enough at launch.

So, I'm thinking a ~1500lb ASW torpedo with reduced warhead and Mk48/Spearfish engine and fuel tank.

Might as well bring back the Mk37.

Or consider the Swedish 400mm ASW torpedo diameter. With the possible advent of smaller anti-torpedo torpedos for the low end, I could see the development of larger lightweight torpedos or shortened heavyweight torpedos suitable for underwater, surface or air launch.
 
Istif class grows to 12 ships...

I thought this amendment was for the weapon and sensor systems of ships 4-8, but instead it seems to be for an additional order of +4 I-class ships.

MİLGEM contract worth 421.5 million euros from ASELSAN! In the MİLGEM Combat Systems Contract, a contract amendment was signed with TAIS Joint Venture and STM Business Partnership, and MİLGEM 9-12 ships' combat systems and payloads were included in the contract.
