She is designed to perform subsea and surface search and rescue missions under various sea conditions. Her main task is to rescue submarines that can not resurface by their own efforts. She is able to provide life support to the stranded crew of a distressed submarine at a maximum depth of 600 m (2,000 ft). She is equipped with remotely operated underwater vehicles (ROV) and atmospheric diving suits (ADS). A modern vessel with complex equipment on board, Alemdar will help maintain an appropriate level of salvage and recovery capability for the Turkish Navy's fleet of fourteen diesel-electric submarines.
