So you'll need to be prepared. I strongly recommend to complete all schools before you go there. At least have a ship with 100 or more hitpoints to withstand one or two hits from Turkish. Attack in a pack and concentrate fire on a one ship at once. Dead enemy is not firing back but wounded enemy does.
