Time to start a light corvette/multi mission corvette based on an OPV/FAC program of our own.

Basically a small warship. We start here and go forward from there.

Surely KSEW will manufacture more over the years to increase our numbers??

I will relay your disagreement with PN Planners.

 

[Zarvan]

My only question whether designing is done and construction will begin soon or they are still not done with design phase

 

[Bilal Khan (Quwa)]

You need to start somewhere. If the PN is designing the gunboat from scratch, it'll learn a lot of basics of ship design and development. It doesn't sound like it's far from Turkey's MRTP series, for example. Gradually, the PN could move into FACs, MCMVs, corvettes, frigates, etc.

By the way, after induction of 4th Azmat class FACM, which FACM is under construction now in KSEW? More Azmat class?
