@Bilal9. PN is the poorest of all services of Pak.. There budget is hardly a billion $ (and that too increased this year).
Our recent acquisitions are still nothing compared to our indian pals .
8 new AIP subs with nuclear SLCMs
ATRs with Meltem ASW upgrade
4 allegedly "improved" F-22/23P frigates
8 FACs
Fleet Tankers
New AW helis (hopefully they will be diverted to the Navy)
--
By 2018-20 at max we will have something like;
13 AIP subs
3 old Agostas
Several X crafts for SSGN
4 F-22Ps
4 F-23P
10 PC-3 Orions
4 ATRs ASWs
4 CN PMAs
4? X Fokker MPAs
Doniers aren't really PMAS
Hawks are EW/ELIENT aircrafts
12 Z-9 ASWs + more ASW helis (hopefully the new AWs are for the navy)
A fleet of Sea King helis (armed with ASMs or ASW)
8-12+ FACs
2 X SQDs of JF for anti ship role (they are deputed from PAF - replacing Mirages)
Maybe new jets for CPEC protection
5 older frigs (Tariq Class that needs replacement)
Olive perrys
8 Missile Boats
A number of Mine sweepers
8+ X Global Cutters
Aux ships
A large number of UAVs & UCAVs
Apart from new indigenous Anti Ship CMs

Apart from that we will have to replace the 5 Tariq Class frigates with new ones !!
These are the most conservative estimates (already signed deals)
And we will actually be forced to juice up the navy to protect of coastal economy and sea trade routes... aswell as our EEZ.
They just got an increased of 15% in their budget .. Almost over a billion $.
