As Pakistan Navy intend to make a new class of Corvette or Frigate ,, what can be its possible configuration indigenous or foreign system will possible be induct .. As may be we can say it will be more like JF-17 of Navy ..

Well, it is imperative for PNS to start an indigenous frigate/corvette/destroyer program on similar footings as JF17 or rather project Azm. The costs of acquiring destroyers are prohibitively high and create dependence.

In July 2018, Pakistan’s Ministry of Defence Production (MoDP) signed a contract with Turkey’s ASFAT A.S. (Military Factories and Shipyards Management Inc) for four MILGEM corvettes for the Pakistan Navy (PN).

Under the contract, Istanbul Shipyard and Karachi Shipyards & Engineering Works (KSEW) will each build two ships, the first of which is due in 2023. The fourth and final ship will join the PN in 2024.

In July, the Pakistani MoDP stated that it will receive “complete transfer of technology’ and the transfer of intellectual proprietary rights for the design of these ships to Pakistan.” Moreover, the fourth ship would not only be built at KSEW, but it will be the “first indigenously designed and constructed frigate.”

The statement implied that the final ship would be a different – potentially enlarged – design from the MILGEM Ada. Considering that the PN has a penchant of terming its Type 21 frigates as “destroyers,”the term “frigate” could simply internal nomenclature for the MILGEM Ada corvette (i.e., not mean anything).

However, at the 2018 International Defence Exhibition and Seminar (IDEAS), which took place in Karachi, Pakistan in 27-30 November, the PN confirmed that the fourth ship will be a different design.

Speaking to journalists (via Quomi Awaz News), a PN official stated:

“We have finalized a plan with our Turkish brothers to construct MILGEM-class corvettes and frigates. God willing, in this project – and for the first time – the proprietary rights of the design will be transferred to Pakistan Navy; and fourth ship, which will be constructed in Pakistan, will be of Pakistani design. And it will be God willing, the first Jinnah-class frigate.”

Thus, it appears that the fourth MILGEM ship will spur a new line, i.e., the Jinnah-class line. Neither ASFATA.S. or the PN have revealed information regarding the specifications or capabilities of this ship, but with the PN clearly stating that the first three ships are ‘corvettes’,it is implying that the fourth ship will be a larger, more capable design (and thus earn the term, ‘frigate’).

Sir call it jf17 of PN as may be it will be workhorse for PN in future as in future PN covette or frigates design inspires by it ..as PN can configure according to its needs .just as PAF do it with Jf 17 ..
just for reference or symbolically said ..

Pakistan will have transfer of technology from the Milgem program and will simply build more vessels needed. There's no need to look elsewhere for something new, as it a highly capable modern vessel. The issue is funds.
Likewise the navy will build Type54A's as well.

Any news about SWIFT Corvettes??

It is sad to see endless ToT agreements, and then we still run to others for designing and building new ships.

Time to design and build our own ships throughout the range.

I hope I can live to see the day where Pakistan can produce all kinds of military equipment, insha'Allah.
