Notes
* - Turkish ship naming and hull numbering conventions appear to be based on a hierarchy of names and numbers. When newer and more capable ships are commissioned existing names and hull numbers are often immediately recycled. If the existing vessels are not slated to be decommissioned they are themselves renamed and renumbered, often appearing to cause a "trickle down" effect. Ships with the same names in different categories should not be assumed to be in any way related to each other.
1 - These ships can also act as minelayers.
2 - A Yuzbazi Tolunay was reportedly placed in service in 1950 and given the hull number A 571. A Albay Hakki Burak was reportedly placed in service in 1964 and given the hull number A 572. In 2000, 2 new ships were commissioned to replace the existing Albay Hakki Burak and Yuzbazi Tolunay, and were given the hull numbers A 571 and A 572 respectively.
