Its a beautiful ship but should had been the newer B version. I mean if we are going to buy something that is going to stay for decades, at least buy newer and advanced versions of it.

Everyone loves the bis and most fancy toy but the military has many more things to take into consideration when comes to procurement.

Type 054 will most likely have harbah and not C802. Looking at the frigate the missile launch tube and OTHR have not been installed yet so too early to say about armament package. There were also rumors about a supersonic missile so lets wait and see.

NEWS is CM-302 290km

Every coin has two sides:
The latest one is always not mature, and the mature one is also not latest.

It could be a locally produced variant of C803 considering it was under development for a while now. Pakistan has recently opted for all the missile with TOT examples being Zarb coastal defense missile. There were also reports of SAM development so could be getting HQ16 under TOT as well.

The PLAN does not even have the 054B, and an export version of it will only come several years after the Chinese receive them. So you are looking at around 2030 by the earliest for their export, which is far too late for the PN.

Maybe there will be Type 054C or others at that moment.

C803 is YJ83-200km，CM-302 is 290km.so I guess use CM-302?

Yes it is most likely CM 302. CM302 will also probably form basis for new series of cruise missiles in Harbah and Zarb family.

The subsystems mentioned above for the Pakistani ship are not accurate.
