There are only few countries in the world that really have a use of an aircraft carriers at all. As for the rest, it is totally needless and it's nothing but trying to compensate for their other short comings. Really, what is Turkey going to do with an aircraft carrier that may only ever carry helicopters and one or two F-35's, since the whole F-35 project is not a certainty to produce the aircraft numbers it wanted to produce as more countries are reducing their orders due to astronomical cost per aircraft. Even if Turkey did pay and receive 100 F-35s she put in an order for, just how many F-35s would she dare to put on an aircraft carrier which will become the major target for Turkeys enemies in a war. This carrier would also need several support ships to sail with her.

Aircraft carriers are used to protect lands belonging to countries far away from home. What major land does Turkey have far away from home that she needs an aircraft carrier to protect? I can't think of any. The other purpose of an aircraft carriers to be used in wars far away from home. Turkey cannot even dare to pick a war with her immediate neighbours, let alone pick a war in far distances away from home. Overall, it is money down the drain for Turkey building this carrier for $3 Billion USD. This money can be best spent to give the TCs in the north a totally free healthcare system, specially if they can't get one in the RoC any longer.

may i suggest to protect their oil and gas fields 24/7 south of cyprus on the border with eygpt springs to mind.

[Maximus]

Turkey needs to be in the right and have the right to do that Lordo, Those 'gas fields' do not belong to Turkey, claiming them as theirs and manouvering an aircraft carrier there is probably the quickest way to have it sunk by others who will inevitably disagree and everyone will disagree with Turkey on such a manouvre.

It will become an excellent dive site for recreation purposes.

Indeed when the going gets tough the tough indeed get going. people have gone to war for a lot less then what is at stake. as i said before who ever came up with an idea that an island no matter how small has more sea area than the main land actually needs their head examined but we shall leave that one till when the first bullet is fired and then we shall see who is brave enough to fight rather than sit down and talk and get an agreement and share the resources fairly.

the funniest one is the aegean where greece claims 97% of the see. yeah like it is likely to happen.

dream on boys dream on, pillow talk is easy.

all laid down by UNCLOS: Cyprus does not belong to Turkey so the Turkish rights effictively end at the median point between Turkey and other countries: anything to the South of Cyprus is Cypriot until at the median point with EG Syria, Lebannon, Isreal and Egypt, and you may find the EU has something to say about it.

SO KEEP YOUR THIEVING HANDS OFF YOU SCUM BAG!

[Maximus]

Turkey is not a signatory to the law of the sea Supporttheunderdog but it does apply to her by ipso-facto.

I think Israel alone will blow that aircraft carrier to high heaven and everyone will agree that the Turks got what they deserved, those thieving scum bags.

may i suggest to protect their oil and gas fields 24/7 south of cyprus on the border with eygpt springs to mind.

What ever oil and gas Turkey might have (very very little) is inland. You don't need a $3 Billion Dollars carrier for that to safeguard, just one Humvee at $50,000 USD!
