Really a beauty, when PN will be building this type as F-22P Block-IIs? I think PN should have started up now, we have 2 docks for this type of Ship and can do 2 of them simultaneously.

Sylver A-35 + quadpacked VT-1 is possible > I suppose that could work using the same kind of missile director.
So, why not a short Chinese VLS with quadpacket FM90?

• The Crotale NG (New Generation), entered production in 1990. This version used the new VT-1 missile with Mach 3.5 speed, load factor to 35G, 11 km range, 13 kg warhead (8m kill-zone) and 6,000 m ceiling.
• The system includes a S-band Pulse Doppler radar (20 km), Ku-band TWT tracking radar (30 km), Thermal camera (19 km), Daylight CCD camera (15 km), and an IR localiser.

It is in the pipeline...We are to Russia what Israel is to America.
With China, our relations are deeper and stronger and date from the early fifties...Chinese help to our war against the french is beyond the imaginable considering the distance that separates us. Algeria was instrumental in the seat that China occupies in the UN security counsel. Our actual president, played a tremendous role in ousting Taiwan from the chair and sit China.

Does Algeria plan to produce three more of these Frigates in Algeria ?

3 C28A will be built in Algeria as well as 2 Meko 200AN and one BDSL..Algeria has an acquired experience in building that type of craft. All the Djebel chenoua fregates are home built.

Just looked at Mers el Kebir via Google Earth. The image is dated 5 July 2015. There doesn't seem to be any a shipdock/drydock, just a floating dock?

From what I've found, the C28A class was commissioned in 3 ships with an option for 3 others of the same type. Can't find much documentation on this though and also not on the taking up of the option for 3 more. Please help: where do we look?

It is very hard to get info, Algerians are very secretive. I posted while back , in the Algerian army thread, picture of the dry docks furnished by the Chinese...I will put some feeders out there and if I succeed in finding something tangible and reliable, I will share it..

That's because it is a further development by the same Chinese shipyard that built F22P

Like I said, I saw a floating dry dock, but not a landbased 'construction dock' or slipyard
