ANKARA: Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has announced that Turkey has become self-sufficient in building its own navy.
According to the details, Turkey has joined the list of 10 countries capable of designing, manufacturing and maintaining warships.
Speaking at a workshop in Istanbul, President Erdogan said that Turkey will no longer have to rely on any other country’s weapons or fleet for its navy.
On this occasion, he attended the inaugural ceremony of the welding of Istanbul F-515 and the third Militia Corvette warship to be built for Pakistan Navy.
