Type 209 submarine
NATO has updated its list of the warships taking part in the Operation Unified Protector. Thus I have to update my list too. It seems that it is the Turkish submarine S-353 TCG Preveze that is taking part in the operation rather than previously announced S-358 TCG Çanakkale.
TCG Preveze is the first boat of the Type 209 /1400 submarines built in Turkey.
The updated list of the participating ships is below:
