A submarine crew becomes humanity's last working outpost when the surface goes silent in Yakamoz S-245, a Turkish sci-fi drama built around a vessel that cannot afford to surface and cannot afford to stay down.
What is Yakamoz S-245 about?
The Turkish Navy submarine TCG Yakamoz S-245 is on a routine mission when contact with the mainland cuts out mid-transmission. What the crew eventually pieces together is a global catastrophe that has left the world above changed beyond recognition. A marine biologist aboard for a separate research assignment gets pulled into the chain of command as protocol breaks down, food and air become countable resources, and old rank structures buckle under decisions nobody trained for. The series alternates between the cramped mechanics of keeping an aging vessel functional and the slower unraveling of trust among people who now depend on each other absolutely. As fragments of information reach the crew about what happened topside, factions form over whether to surface, where to go, and who gets to decide.
About the cast
Kıvanç Tatlıtuğ leads an ensemble that includes Özge Özpirinçci, Ertan Saban, Meriç Aral, Jerry Hoffmann, Ece Çeşmioğlu, Ecem Uzun, and Ersin Arıcı, playing officers and specialists whose working relationships are tested once the mission stops being routine.
Context & significance
Director Umut Aral shot the series to lean into the submarine's physical limits rather than around them — corridors, control rooms, and torpedo bays that dictate how scenes are staged and how far characters can get from one another. The Turkish production sits in a run of submarine and bunker-set dramas that use enclosed settings to compress a large-scale event into a handful of rooms, forcing the story to live in decisions rather than spectacle.
Watching Yakamoz S-245 on Ktime
Yakamoz S-245 streams on K-Time with Persian dubbing and Persian subtitles, so the claustrophobic pacing and the crew's overlapping dialogue both come through clearly for Farsi-speaking viewers. Watching requires a free K-Time account; the show sits alongside the platform's other Turkish drama picks in a Farsi-language interface built for the diaspora.
