Pakistan nearing assembly stage of S20 submarine

i think its very early to to star building sub sections of the subs. i would imagine they may be preparing to build them.
i don't know why but i feel the Chinese sub that came to Karachi was to probably help ksew familiarise them with the sub they are building.
yeah i was saying that the thread is misleading, meaning it looks like we are nearing completion of assembly process while what the article ACTUALLY want to communicate is that Pakistan is nearing the START of the process. :)

Sir, in the past few days I have been given a new name (Nishan) by a senior member so can not say what the future might hold...Only a hint as economy improves PN would add more goodies.
ooy itna gusaa???

I NEVER GAVE YOU THE NAME BROTHER,, Just asked you based on you over optimistic posts.

Regarding the timeline you are quoting here for the submarine induction, any idea how many dry docks we operate at KSEW and how many can be used to construct new submarines simultaneously?

Timely visit by the Yuan?

With an ever expanding submarine fleet,it looks though the PN would also need to acquire a number of submarine tenders。
currently we do not operate any PROPER submarine tender, the support vessels make do. I do not see it changing very soon :)

Bhai it was a coded msg...:cray:

There are a few but not sure of the availability.

how few exactly?
You quoted the timeline by which the subs can be manufactured and inducted so i assume you are aware how may docks there are and how many constructions projects we can run in parallel.

Dear members: please back up any statements with reliable links. Not sourcing is against the forum rules. As I could come on and say NASA scientist finds Pakistani flag on moon.

In another thread some retard is comparing mangoes with scalpels but who cares about backing up statements with reliable links even if they are just a click away.

It is not just the flag, usually such divine discoveries are accompanied by the sound of tilawat or azan in the discoverer's ears, followed by reciting the kalimah and accepting Islam. :D

KSEW has 2 dry docks plus a construction dock.
Subs would have one dedicated dock for this project.

karachi only has 3 dry dock but two are good to building subs bit are occupied. the largest dock is being used to build a tanker for pn and the other is being built for a third fast attach craft Karachi Shipyard & Engineering Works Limited

New Submarine base to be built in Balochistan....so Karachi won't have to face any congestion issues.

Although a little bit different what i know but still these figures wont back up the production being claimed in previous pages. Actually, there are two dry docks and three ship building berths, we are currently working on TWO surface ships (one Azmat Class boat and other a fleet tanker) AND, the two dry docks CANNOT be simultaneously used for new construction work, need to keep on for any repair/up gradation work AND, for God's sake we CANNOT build a submarine in 12 months, have a lok at F-22p timeline, Augusta submarine time line (sorry i am sounding bit like i am arguing with you but i am not, it was not you who was claiming these things.

Actually, i asked about the production facility as i though may be i do not know something that @ ACT OF THE AIR knows which made him quote the induction timeline and figures with some certainty. However apparently he did not knew about the production capability to begin with, don't know how can someone work out the number of subs KSEW will pop out in an year without knowing who many docks there are to work on a sub.

KSEW has 2 dry docks plus a construction dock.
Subs would be have one dedicated dock for this project.
Sir you are also saying that out of THESE TWO docks one can be spared for the submarine construction project right? or are you saying we have an extra THIRD dock for this? AS far as i know, there are TWO.

Finally, someone who understand WHAT i was saying or trying in those last few posts. Everyone else was just answering and replying to the question to provide INFORMATION (not that i mind any of that, this is why i am here :) so have thanked them all). I hope all this effort was worth it and we have brought down the over ambitious production figures for the submarine project that we do not know anything about with certainty to begin with :P

Yes, Only ONE dry dock will be spared for submarine construction at KSEW.
However, ONE more dry dock at Dockyard can also be made available for submarine construction if required (the one where 90B's were built, and has has all the facilities as well).
This is the present state of docks, which can be increased in a short period of time if required.

The time frame for construction can only be given by the Director Project and that too when the project is initiated. So we will have to wait and see. Any other time frame is just speculation based on general knowledge,.
