Oh I agree with you 110%. Just felt vaginas were being insulted a bit.
 
. .
P17A also costs 1.1 billion per unit. For that price Pakistan could get type 055 .

While the Type 54A is less than a quarter of the price of the P17A and almost 3000 tones lighter it is equal in Air defence, equal in antishipping with the export YJ 12, and superior in CIWS with its 1130s and only inferior in ASW with its single helicopter vs two of the P17A.

Oh and the P17A has a bigger main gun
 
. .
The Indians are actually comparing their top of the line Destroyers which cost over a billion dollars each vs Chinas export frigates which cost around 250 million each. Sad part is Armnament wise the P17A is so underwhelming for its size that it doesn't even compare favorably vs type 054As.

What a joke these Indians are, PN have not formally shown its ship design so only they know what will be final product.

@Rashid Mahmood please share your opinion.

Just like their Tejas is "superior" to our JF-17
Arjunk is "superior" to our Al-Khalid....

and so on...

When our FFG is operational, then we will compare it with any other vessel, not before.

Hey if Indians want to boast that fine. Lets compare in the same price category then. The type 055 is estimated to cost 950 million dollars. The P17A cost 1.1 billion dollars.

The 150 million difference can almost buy a 054A

So China can make a 055 and 054A for the price of a P17A
 
. . .
Indian Navy officers should keep their mouths shut over these issues. Leave it to other navies for such opinions.

They should only give their opinion about swapping wife and things like that.

HHQ-16 or rather its base HQ-16 is derived/copied from Russian Buk / SA-11 or SA-17 air defence system.

LY-80, HQ-16's export version.

As such these are dated system which cannot defeat a maneuvering high speed supersonic missile like Onik P-800.
The missile has been updated. Latest version is hq 16b. I also doubt you know the capabilities of baseline hq 16.
