Hangor Class Submarine Project | Updates & Discussions

Pn should already have the one 039a, the ninth one for training in China or perhaps in Pakistan prepping students for the four sub expected by 2024 and four local boats by 2028 ??
 
Pn info is outdated but good read

It is a shame that PN is not going for the 039C as that represents the best of the type - seems like Pakistans strategy is to buy n-2 where "n" is the latest variant...

Nah bro, that's common in other navies, PLAN in the same shoe. It will take years for 039B to phase out our older 035 and Kilo 636 which are now still in active duty.

Whether there's a C variant is yet unconfirmed, now we can only see a new sail (with a chine running along the upper part), an integral towed array, possibly a new anechoic coating or lithium battery, all could be experimental. Anyway the 039 employs a modular architecture, and plenty of room for retrofitting new initiatives. Baseline design is close to 80m long and beam of almost 9m, making its 3600 tons of displacement largest in the world after Soryu class, almost doubles that of other mainstream subs! Size does matter, other than carrying adequate combat resources, better sea worthiness, it also offers more comfort for crew (highly automatic so only 38 men required) who have to endure weeks of underwater service.

Another pattern followed by Pakistan is to import mature platforms that have served in a military for quite some time. Type54 and type39b are both mature platform and are part of PLANS backbone.

Exactly. FFG 054A, SSK 039B, ZDK-03 (in PLA designate KJ-500), VT-4 (in PLA designate 99A) and HQ-9B etc are all current PLA backbones, customized for PA/PN/PAF protocols. These mature platforms (along with joint production like JF-17, A-100 MLRS) can leverage on training, tech supply chain, arsenal resupplies and C4ISTAR infrastructure (e.g. satcom, global positioning, infrared early warning, ELINT) with PLA.

These hangoor class submarines will be integrated with worlds best steriling engines 40 percent more powerfull than Swedish revolutinary Steriling engines definately give more stealth time to remain under water
 
Pak navy must induct tgese subs if possible with VLS launch capability of cruise missiles
 
The best car available on the market is Bugatti but it's a shame you probably only own a Suzuki or a Toyota or a Honda, right?
How it's related?
It works the same way for the country as it works for any individual, you buy what you can afford.

Pakistan is buying what is best for them, mature and decent. That has more bang for buck and what is offered ....
 
What if a couple of these Subs turn out to be nuclear. :cheesy:

You need handsome knowledge to build a miniature nuclear power plant , rest is now issue , currently we have no knowledge to build a ordinary nuclear power plant all help coming from china
