In the prior posts, you would have found them described as "two patrol craft" and "two large patrol craft (LPC), the largest warship construction project in Bangladesh", not as 'large warships' (although the title of the first article of post 1 does - incorrectly - state "large warships", but hey not all journalist actually know something about what they write about ;-).Looks more like a Coast Guard Patrol boat, than a 'Large Warship'.
Shant ho jao bhai and this is for everyone.
No need for jhagda or nasty words please.
If the ship design does suck then please explain in technical terms and not proctological terms....
@Khan saheb Does this have chaff launchers and CIWS at all. The Pakistani equivalent may have it. Maybe @Penguin sahab can shed light on this. They appear on the C-28A for Algeria, atop the hangar (rather than the more common position forward of the main gun).
For Anti-air warfare a fighting ship needs three layer defense.
However the role for the Durjoy class may not include the AAW part.
- anti-air missile
- Chaff launcher
- mini CIWS or equivalent
Durjoy-class LPC - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
JRCSS combat management system (CMS) with at least three multifunction consoles is also fitted in the shipsSensors and processing systems:
Armament:
- Type 360 Radar (SR60) Surface Search, E/F band
- MR-123-02/76 Fire Control Radar for 76.2mm gun
- Type 352 Radar (Square Tie) surface search and SSM fire control, I-band
- Type 347G Radar (Rice Bowl) for 20mm cannon, I-band
- ESS-3 bow mounted sonar
- 1 x H/PJ-26 76.2 mm naval gun, forward;
- 2 x 2 C-704 AShM;
- 2 x Oerlikon 20 mm cannon;
- 2 x 6-tube EDS-25A 250mm ASW rocket launcher
- Decoys
I see no indication of dedicated chaff launchers, but there is mention in sources of 'decoys', which tend to be rocket launched. The EDS-25A rocket launchers for ASW could possibly be capable of also launching chaff and decoy rockets.
There is no CIWS in the sense comparable to Phalanx, Goalkeeper, Palma or even AK630. There are two twin light cannon mounts (probable 25mm). The 76mm could have some CIWS potential just as the Oto Melara 76mm has.
Any manpads would be handheld as there do not appear to be special mounts for them
