I am not sure which warship will use ly70 in PNPakistan has purchased Chinese CM-501GA anti-ship missiles for helicopter launch.
The CM-501GA missile is a lighter version of the original missile, a missile that can be used for land attack as well as against ships. The range of these missiles, manufactured by China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation, is about 40 km. Being a lighter version, it can be launched from the Harbin Z-9 helicopters which are owned by the Pakistan Navy. These helicopters are also from China.. and are On the 054 A/P frigates delivered by China to Pakistan. One of the PNS Tughril models, was delivered last month and the remaining three will be delivered soon.
The sources said that the missiles target Indian warships such as the Kolkata and Vizag destroyers and stealth frigates.
Besides, Pakistan is negotiating with China over the LY-70 air defense missile system for its warships. It has already asked ALIT, the manufacturer, to submit the technical proposal and budget. The previous version, the LY-60N, was purchased by the Pakistan Navy two decades ago for its Tariq-class frigates.
Can smell a troll from miles away....
Hi All, I was wondering where we can get information or see how many ships are available for Navy at any given time.
The relevant assets of Navy are 3 agosta-90bs, 4 F-22Ps, 1 Alamgir, 2 Damen corvettes, 2-3 Azmat FACs
But, 2 Damen OPVs are yet not weaponized for combat.
2 Agosta subs are being upgraded, so cannot be in action.
PNS Zulfiqar was in Germany till August. No idea where is it now.
PNS Alamgir was in Algeria recently.
Another F-22P was seen in satellite photo being upgraded.
This gives a very dire situation, if more then half of fleet is either at long trips or non functional.
I don't understand, why Navy is so lazy for not weaponizing the Damen OPVs yet. They know they need to make use of every asset, but they seems to be chilling. Foreign trips are okay for bi-lateral relationships and all but that should be done when you have enough assets to protect your own coast. I mean a force should be always ready for worst case scenario. IN won't ask for permission, if it has to attack!.
