During the presentation "An Overview of the Capabilities and Objectives of the Construction/Modernization of Submarine and Surface Platforms" organized by STM as part of the 10th Naval Systems Seminar, information was given on the latest situation on the Logistics Support Ship. The first ship will be delivered at the end of November 2021, and the second at the end of February 2024.
While the sea acceptance activities of the first ship, whose construction had already started, reached the initial stage, the second ship was launched and its equipment was 'bred to a certain level'. Testing and outfitting activities of ships continue at Ada Shipyard. Selah Shipyard, which took part in the Logistics Support Ship project, declared a concordat due to economic problems.
