We have gotten lot of things from China janab so not fantasy world but ourselves won't want to get them for free. We would like to pay for the weapons. As for ship which ever ship it should have VLS for Cruise Missiles
Can u please name the that facility in Multan? Please
Agree.
Plus, if you all just noticed, in the past two decades, we haven't got the best which China had, it has always been their tier 2, 3 product that made into Pakistan.
Now, is it the Pakistanis that don't want the best from China or is it the Chinese that don't offer their best is the question. But if it's the latter one, than forget any Destroyer or J11s, you are not even getting a decent air defence ship.
The downsides of relying too much on one supplier, earlier it was U.S., now it's China.
which mean it will be a new design .... not F-22(P)
4 amazon class ex British ships(need to go ASAP), 4 F22 frigates and 1 OHP class firgateWhats the number main battle oriented ships we have right now apart from FACs??
Pak navy Should consider nothing less than DDG 52 Because India has 3 aircraft carrier we need sufficient class of ship which atleast has potent air defence shield to save our other ships and our sea shores as well
Smallers types won't do much good for saving our shores
Who is going to pay for that? PN is a defensive force, amd as such a medium to heavy frigate in the 4-5000t range is more sufficient. Something with 32-48 vls cells amd can equip 8 AShM/LACM and has room for PMDS/CIWS and anti-sub weaponry and equipment like a good ASW helicopter, torpedoes amd anti-sub rockets like RDC-32 or better as well as towed sonars ect. That plus a quad packed medium range missile coupled with a solid long range missile and electronics like AESA radars and good C4ISR capabilities is going to be a difficult thing for IN to deal with, even with their own very potent fleet which will include 2 carriers.
Such a frigate (with 48 cells as shown on some renderings of Type 057 would have the ability to field 16 long range SAMs (like HQ9A/B) giving a 200km reach, and back that with 128 medium ranged sams from 40-50km ranges. These would be backed 24 short range (9km) missiles from FL3000N, which would be backed by 2 CIWS. This ship would out gun any destroyer in IN with regards to air defense including the upcoming Visakhapatnam and current Kolkata class destroyers which carry 32 Barak 8 (90km). They wpuld overcome mpst saturation strikes and if armed with an antiship capable version of Babur it would out range any IN vessel in Antiship capabilities, although more likely it would be equipped with C-802A or Zarb (280km vs 300+ km).
Sir PN getting 8 subs from China which is remedy for all diseases for PN, the 11 potent subs certainly armed with 600 KM+ range Babur CM dual purpose for anti ship and surface attack role, shall be enough to keep enemy ACs at long ranges along with other heavy destroyers. The main face to face counter shall be between frigates and FACs along with naval jets.
You and others have pointed out rightly the SAM requirements of at least of Medium range.
Not just medium range, but numbers of missiles needs to be high to overcome saturation attack.
