Nordic Monitor cites a classified report on him military her Turkey which was allegedly drafted in 2015 and states that there are significant shortages, should it break out war.
Specifically, the nordicmonitor.com notes that Turkish military commanders report that “we are having a hard time finding a combat-ready armored/mechanized brigade that we can send into battle. Therefore, our top priority as Land Forces should be to find a solution to our need for combat troops.”
According to the document’s predictions, ground forces may be called upon to deploy, albeit in a limited-scale engagement, along the border with Greece, as well as during a conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia. There was also a forecast for continued instability in Syria and Iraq, without ruling out the creation of a dead zone. It is also reported that NATO may further influence Russia and require Turkey to commit forces at various levels against the Russian threat, while the military may be called on for training programs in foreign countries.
For the remaining five brigades, the report suggests restructuring them to be mobilization brigades that will be ready for combat in 3-6 months. They will also provide training for foreign military personnel and will contribute to the creation or restructuring of military forces for countries such as Somalia and Libya, which have requested assistance from Turkey.
