First Logistic Support Ship On Builders Trials
25 Mar 2019
First, of the two logistic support ships, A-574 TCG Yüzbaşı Güngör Durmuş has started her shipyard trials. These two ships will be a welcomed addition to the existing fleet of tankers and replenishment ships of the Turkish Navy.
These ships do not have a rig for underway replenishment alongside but will be able to stream a fuel hose astern for a more old fashioned way.
TCG Yüzbaşı Güngör Durmuş is constructed by Selah Shipyard and should have been handed over to the Navy 18 months ago.
