Vietnam EEZ was threaten by illegal nine dashed line of China.
the line is under a legal case raised by Philippines too.
the line leads to the clash between China coastguard ships and Indonesia Natuna coastguard, violated Malaysia Luconia Shoal, Philippines Scarborough Shoal

2200 tons?

Is that a frigate or corvette?

Same as the F22P 2500 Ton "Frigate"

 

[BoQ77]

Vietnam did buy engines for these Gepard class and convey to Russia for assy. As Russia cant get the proper engines due to embargo.

 

[BoQ77]

buy some aircraft carriers.

Carriers range exceeds our range of protection, so it's no need.
Spratly islands are only about 500 kilometers from our coasts.

 

[BoQ77]

if so,just buy some long range missiles.
No need to buy such a small boat which works like a fleet anti air,anti sub,anti ship.................

No, we don't buy any fleet air defence ship.
Thanks for your advice. Good to buy some AShM
And we need some small corvettes or frigates and aircrafts and subs to anti sub, anti ship ... too.
AAA/SAM is only for self defending of the ship.

 

[Place Of Space]

Same as the F22P 2500 Ton "Frigate"

F22P is about 3100 ton full displacement.

 

[Viet]

bronze on everything but gold in nothing?

Gepard is not the end of the road, but the beginning. Next natural development is 5,000 tons destroyer.

 

[GS Zhou]

Gepard is not the end of the road, but the beginning. Next natural development is 5,000 tons destroyer.

Can not wait to see it!

Will you consider 054A from China? I think it could be a good candidate to your needs.

China did it. but useless.

This is a thread about Vietnam navy equipment program. So you should not derail the topic to the Chinese warships, unless you expect Vietnam to purchase the warships from China.

In addition, pls laugh at the Chinese carrier as much as you can now. There won't be too much time left for your laughter.
- When China owns just one carrier, you laugh at it and call it "useless";
- When China owns three carriers in ~5 years, you will be in hysteria and call it "a huge threat to the peace in Asia"
- When China owns five carriers in ~10 years, you will be in silence
- When China owns ten carriers in ~20 years, you will applaud and call it "the top contributor to the peace of our planet"

Its no needed for Vietnam in this moment. When china can build it by yourselves, we can think about such deal.
