What's new

are newly joined BNS Durjoy and BNS Nirmul stealty as Type056 Corvette ?

Is irrelevant to the question of stealth.


Question is what stealth feature have been adopted in the design, not whether the design are or are not stealth ships (i.e. it is a matter of degree)


That doesn't necessarily make them corvettes by 'accepted standards'. I mean, the Iranian navy classifies 1400 ton 'destroyer escorts' (i.e. frigates in UK/Royal Navy parlance of 1970s) as destroyers. In reality, they are no more than corvettes by today's standards.

That's why I said LPCs categorized as Corvette in BN :) .

I would think "Large Patrol Craft" or "Large Patrol Missile Craft" is the BN's designation.
