I don't need to prove that missiles have a limited shelf live: it applies to all missiles.
When you make an argument you have to prove it with credible sources. You cant apply your opinions as facts.
Yes, but that's 8-10 years later and like you said, they - unlike PN - have active OHPs. Which translates active maintenance of the missile stock (maintenance cycles). Besides, there may be imporant differences in missile storage in Turkey and Pakistan (e.g. predominant weather and method of storage e.g. whether or not in a climate controlled facility > affects rate of missile motor deterioration) If it hasn't actively maintained them and cycled them over the past 20 years, there may not be anything usefull left of refurb of the missile electronics. Add to that limited motor shelf live.
You did not comprehend the context here. Turkey acquired the SM1 from USN stocks meaning they were first produced for USN earlier and then were ordered by Turkey.
Unfortunately you have been only undermining everything here and lack knowledge in some field. You Called PN maintenance and storage facility as inadequate for SM-1 when they have been operating almost 30 years old AM-39 quite successfully.
Weapons & Ammunition
1. The Weapon & Ammunition Groups mission is :
To provide armament logistics support to PN fleet, Naval Air Arm and establishments ensuring that the armaments supplied are:
Safe in Storage
Reliable in Use
Efficient in Functioning
2. Functioning of W&A group is based on missionoriented approach i.e. all the functions and activities towards fulfillment of the mission are performed by the group in totality and independently. Hence this group exhibits a perfect example of one window operation.
3. For purpose of command and control as well as for effective and efficient utilization of resources, the Armament Depots have been grouped together to form Weapons & Ammunition Group, headed by a Managing Director.
Pakistan Navy Ammunition Depot (PNAD) It was established in 1958 at Mauripur.
The main task of PNAD is to provide storage, maintenance and repair facilities for all types of ammunition. The depot is self sufficient to carry out complete maintenance and repair of the entire range of ammunition independently and have dedicated ammunition proof testing facilities.
PN Missile Complex (PNMC) As the name implies it takes care of the storage, maintenance and repair of missiles, air to surface Exocet AM-39, subsurface to surface SM-39, surface to surface SY-I(G), all three versions of Harpoons, surface to air Mistral, LY-60(N) and surface to surface C-802.
PN Torpedo Depot (PNTD) Takes care of the storage, maintenance and repair of all types of torpedoes held in the service including their preparation and analysis for their exercise firings.
PN Armament Supply Depot (PNASD). PNASD is located at sub depot area and provides guns, small arms and webbing equipment support to PN units afloat and ashore.
PN Ordnance Repair Depot (PNORD). This depot provides maintenance support for all inventory managed by PNASD.
Chief Inspector of Naval Armaments (CINA).
Another important aspects of the Armament Logistics support is the concept of Quality Assurance, which is achieved for the entire range of in-service weapons and ammunition through an independent inspection organization headed by a Chief Inspector of Naval Armaments (CINA).
