Sir, should we expect the second pair after PNS Yarmook and PNS Tabuk?PN has enough experience of installation and integration of Weapons & Sensors.
We will do it ourselves.
This was the contract.
Dutch Design. Damen is a Dutch company. They bought a shipyard in Romania. Dutch are one of the best small/medium size vessel designers.impressive Romanian design ... Its good to see Pakistan armed force policy of diversification of technology. In Navy, Pakistan adopt, German,American,Turkish,Chinese and now Romanian technology ..
He mean to say, why not named something from Pakistan. PNS Karachi , PNS Punjab, PNS Sher Khan , PNS Shabbir Shareef etc etc ...
Pak forces across all services continue with their linear conventional thinking. Frigates, more light frigates, even lighter frigates, more patrol boats floating around as corvettes, under-powered and under-equipped "fast" attack craft...
Asymmetrical warfare and procurement is the only way forward. Distributed lethality plopped on patrol vessels and merchant ships. Yes more subs of different roles and varying capabilities and designs. Flexible weapons modules ala Stanflex. As mentioned UAVs and UUVs of varying degree. All would be a lot cheaper and effective than trying to compete vertically or in the conventional sense. Would deliver deterrence instead of fanboy dreams of a far-sea large blue water navy.
No. I was referring to design of the ship.I think you may be on the wrong forum...
I know but I was expecting it to first get Radar and weapon integration done in Pakistan before induction into active service with PN ....

We should go for Type 052Ds nowNo, I guess not.
We have 8 ships in line other than that.
54s & Milgems.
Should had gone for Smart MK-S 3D Search Radar
Roles of these 2 ships are different from 4 Type 054A/Ps , 4 Milgems and even 4 F22Ps . These will be for RMSP , Coastal security and defense , foreign visits , Policing , intelligence gathering roles , Only wartime deployments against India close to Pakistan e.t.c e.t.c .We should go for Type 052Ds now

Please do hint what type of weapons these OPVs shall have, it was repeated by PN officials that these OPVs are for Navy and shall support ASW, AD and ASHM roles. Shall be armed domestically but now we are getting another picture with many ifs. Our sole OHP is without credible AD and F22P have limited air defense capability, we should immediately arm them properly with some capable SAMs though short range with other gadgets.Roles of these 2 ships are different from 4 Type 054A/Ps , 4 Milgems and even 4 F22Ps .

So total of 12 ships getting Alper radar... could it be:
4 Milgem / Jinnah class
4 F-22P
4 Yarmook (assuming 2 more are bought)
OR
2 Yarmouk and 2 new upgraded Azmat Class.
