Özet:

 It is possible to examine the Turkish Naval Forces in four phases during the Republic period: Naval Department, Naval Ministry, Naval Undersecretariat and Naval Forces Command. The Naval Department, which commanded the Naval Forces since the beginning of 1921, assumed responsibility for all operational and administrative affairs. With the declaration of the Republic, the Navy was placed under the command of the Turkish Grand National Assembly Government and was named the Republic Navy. President Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk aimed to establish a strong navy during this period. In line with this goal, at the end of 1924, the navy and land facilities were placed under the command of the Ministry of Naval Affairs. In 1925, the first warship was ordered from abroad. In 1928, the Ministry of Naval Affairs was replaced by the Undersecretariat of Naval Affairs. There was a development in the Republic Navy between 1933 and 1938. The defense of the Turkish Naval Forces was strengthened with the military aid received as a result of the rapprochement in USTürkiye relations following the Second World War. The Naval Forces Command era began in 1949. During this period, after becoming a member of NATO in 1952, the Naval Forces Command improved relations with member countries, organized its organizational structure, made changes in the training system, created forces in accordance with NATO standards and participated in exercises. In order to increase the power of the Naval Forces, submarines, surface and minesweepers have been included in the inventory.

 Türk Deniz Kuvvetlerinin Cumhuriyet döneminde: Bahriye Dairesi, Bahriye Vekâleti, Deniz Müsteşarlığı ve Deniz Kuvvetleri Komutanlığı olmak üzere dört evre hâlinde incelenmesi mümkündür. 1921 yılının başından itibaren Deniz Kuvvetlerine komuta eden Bahriye Dairesi, harekât ve idarî işlerin tamamının sorumluğunu üstlenmiştir. Donanma, Cumhuriyetin ilanı ile TBMM Hükûmetinin emrine verilerek Cumhuriyet Donanması olarak adlandırılmıştır. Cumhurbaşkanı Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, bu dönemde kuvvetli bir donanma tesis etmeyi amaç edinmiştir. Bu hedef doğrultusunda, 1924 yılının sonunda donanma ile kara tesisleri Bahriye Vekâletinin komutası altında yer almıştır. 1925 yılında yurt dışından ilk defa savaş gemisi sipariş edilmiştir. 1928 yılında Bahriye Vekâletinin yerini Deniz Müsteşarlığı almıştır. 1933-1938 yılları arası dönemde Cumhuriyet Donanmasında gelişim yaşanmıştır. İkinci Dünya Savaşını takiben ABD-Türkiye ilişkilerinde yaşanan yakınlaşma neticesinde alınan askerî yardımlar ile Türk Deniz Kuvvetlerinin savunması güçlenmiştir. 1949 yılında Deniz Kuvvetleri Komutanlığı dönemi başlamıştır. Bu dönemde, 1952 yılında NATO üyesi olunmasının ardından Deniz Kuvvetleri Komutanlığı üye ülkelerle ilişkileri geliştirmiş, teşkilat yapısını düzenlemiş, eğitim sisteminde değişiklikler yapmış, NATO standartlarına uygun kuvvet oluşturmuş ve tatbikatlara katılmıştır. Deniz Kuvvetlerinin gücünü artırmak amacıyla denizaltı, denizüstü ve mayın tarayıcı gemiler envantere alınmıştır.
