--------------------------------

Statements such as "second strongest" have little meaning in the context of a military force. Is this a ranking of specific capabilities? Proven combat-effectiveness? Level of training? Any such statement needs to be substantiated.

In terms of equipment and capabilities, a couple European Navies come to mind, such as the Italian and Spanish navies, (which both have aircraft carriers) which are "stronger" than Turkey's, not to mention the German and Greek navies, which have similar capabilities.

The point is, this is an encyclopedia, in which you should strive to have a neutral POV. Other than that specific statement, it is a very informative article.

:How is Greek navy stronger than Turkey's, I would like to know. And just numeral or fire power supremacy doesn't make a stronger navy or army; armies are as effective as their officers and generals, not just their weaponry. So first you were right, we can't call Turkish navy second best, just as you can't make a comparison as well unless it is a huge gap as between for example US and Turkish navies.--] 08:28, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

The person above said and he is pretty correct that italian, spanish and should we also say french and english navies include aircraft carriers and are actually stronger navies, when he mentioned the greek navy he mentioned similar capabilities, and in many forms the greek navy is of similar capabilities to the turkish navy.
_______________________

Τhe statement that the Turkish navy is the second strongest navy in europe is completely nonsense, how could they be better than the highly modernized French navy or Italian navy?, in addition to that main combat units for the turkish navy are the obsolete Knox class frigate who have been termed by some people are not "fit" for the aegean sea.

:There is an ongoing large scale modernization in Turkish Army, which includes building of new ships.--] 08:28, 14 March 2006 (UTC)


== Question ==

What is the "designation" (for lack of a better word) letters that come before the name of a Turkish ship (i.e for the US USS. Ronald Reagan, Britian HMS Ark Royal, Holland HLMS Tromp)

The "designation" letters before the name of a Turkish navy ship are "TCG" (Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Gemisi, in English language: Ship of the Turkish Republic). ] 08:43, August 8, 2005 (UTC)



Well Turkish navy has no projection equipement. But projection capability does not mean strength. Turkish navy is second in europe after english navy considering purely strength !!

== Turkish Navy Motto ==

It is "Daima Hazır", "Always Ready/Prepared", if someone wants to add it. I think we need to rebuild Turkish military related articles, they are too weak, very few photos and information. I am willing to contribute time and information for this, especially in Navy related articles I can provide photos. Let me know, contact me, don't be lazy.--] 08:15, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

==Intro statement==
"The Turkish Navy is the third strongest in Europe after the British Royal Navy and Russian Navy."

I apologize, but this is quite an incorrect statement. First of all, the two best navies in Europe are generally recognized to be the British and the French, not British and Russian. Furthermore, Turkey's is not the third best. I would rate the Russian, German, Italian, Spanish, and even the Dutch navies as superior. I think there may be disagreements about the latter three, but I can't foresee any about the first two. I plan to correct this highly POV statement.] 04:40, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
