sTAMp is lighter caliber while STOp is heavier caliber not sure why not just add another ak130 in the front too which is effective upto 5km

STAMP - 12.7mm
STOP - 25mm
SMASH - 30mm

Or May be by a STOP 25mm?
From distance, both STAMP and STOP looks identical. But the size indicates that it's 25mm gun, not mere 12.7 mm gun.

In comparison, STAMP (12.7mm) is pretty small.

I think you’re correct, that is likely STOMP. I saw it in the video from the other angle and it looked like STAMP, but it is very likely that is 25mm as the caliber would make sense and the photo backs that up too.

The 25 mm version would make more sense. The picture of the ship itself doesn’t help, since they’re identical from that angle, that’s just a cover on it that can be put on all the types. We don’t know what the gun beneath it is. There are two different versions of STAMP itself. STAMP-G has a Gatling gun.

PMSA has some serous ships to help with operations

this will ensure PN doesnt need to commit a capital ship like a Type 054A/P to chase off smugglers and bandits

btw I seen the 600 ton + 1,500 ton cutters at Port Grand in Karachi in Oct 2021

they look awesome
