I agree, that's seems farthest from likely.

But NATO and all, Turkish relations with France are tense, it would surprise me even more. They are at odds regarding Libya.

Five years ago, the French frigate Courbet (Lafayette-class) was allegedly illuminated three times by Turkish warships.

Besides that France is very close friends with Greece. As far as i know, the last decades France only sell jetfighters and frigates to Hellas, and not Turkiye.

TCG Istanbul launch HISAR D naval SAM version. For Turkiye it is significant enough as their designed Frigates launch indigenous SAM with Indigenous Midlas VLS.

First Milden Submarine production process begin few days ago. Turkiye follow similar pattern like ROK. First begin licensing 209, then 214, then toward their own design. Korean with KDS-III and now Turkiye with this Milgen.

Turkish media TRT Haber on TCG shipyard with the progress with Milgem Istif Frigate project. They shown the building process where now Milgem project already reach 8th vessel or 4th Istif Frigate (the first four is Milgem Corvette).

Turkiye yard TCG claim their productifity on Milgem project is not hampering their delivery for other orders from Romania, Ukraine, Malaysia and Indonesia. TCG also shown the latest Midlas VLS modules on current Istif that able to handle long range Siper SAM compare to previous model that only handle medium range Hisar D SAM. Interesting they talk that previously Indonesia order will use NSM. However after what happen with NSM order from Malaysia, Indonesia then change it to Roketsan (Atmaca).
