Following the completion of repair works on TCG Yavuz, the shipyard started with the building of its first ship. On July 26, 1934, an oil tanker was laid down. The 58.60 m (192.3 ft) long vessel was constructed in 16 months, named MT Gölcük after the shipyard and launched on November 1, 1935, being also the first ship built in the Republican era. MT Gölcük served until 1983.[5]
In 1980, an Ay class submarine of 1,000 tons was constructed at the Gölcük Naval Shipyard marking an important turning point in the Turkish shipbuilding history. Also, the building of a modern frigate, the TCG Fatih (F 242), in 1988 earned the naval shipyard international prestige.[6]
