[Tank131]

Does it have AESA main radar?

I believe the SMART-S MK2 is a PESA.

Special thanks to @Corsair255 who shared these with us.

Pictures belong to model ships made by a friend who is professionally involved in model shipbuilding and are officially assigned by the platform manufacturer.

At a glance, note:
2x8 16 Cells (can go up to 64 if quad packed) Vertical Launchers at the back side of main gun.
Main gun is 76 mm Oto-Malera (despite it looks like a different gun)
RAM is gone,replaced by Korkut-Naval.
2 Quad-Pack to carry eight AShM.

=====================================================================

The addition of 16 VLS, most probably for air defense missiles in a very promising development. It will be a big step forward in its current state, as it is. Also if we can find a quad-pack(able) missile to fit in 64 missiles in these VLS it will turn the ship into a formidable AAD role platform.

We can also see Chinese cooperation, on some subsystems that Turkish naval industry not yet able to localize or any embargo-threat on future logistic flow.

Pakistan is really buying a very superior package. Actually Pakistan not buy a ready product, but an industrial capacity. Now , Turkey designing its own AAW destroyers within this infrastructure . Pakistan will get this accumulation.

Outstanding news a great move by PN thanks so much for sharing.

Please tell your friend to use paint brush individual bristles for Antennas! These things look ugly with pipes sticking in the air! But thank you for sharing the pics. specially the bit on VLS

It will be interesting to know which air defense missile PN chooses initially. Will it be a Turkish system (most likely) or a Chinese one. For AShM i think PN will go with the indigenous option of Harba missile or some Chinese option in shape of C802 to keep similarity with other surface platforms.

What PN is going for looks like a mix of Milgen Ada class and I-class frigate. Lets wait and see.As per reports so far, the propulsion system is different from other Milgem corvettes, the VLS is an addition too, possibility of a different AShM is there as explained above.

Any idea on what AAD missile PN will go for?

I think The air defence missiles will be Chinese origin because Turkish VLS and G-40 missile option didn’t pass into production yet.

Then it most probably will be the same we will equip our Type 54s with!

 

[cabatli_53]

The technology gained from Milgem program, Pakistan will commence to manufacture own corvettes based on Milgem but The cooperation between two brother state will be crowned with a further step called Tf/Pf-2000 destroyers I think.

Is Pakistan gonna use any Turkish Subsystem in Type 54's? I think Pakistan can have a Chinese-Turkish synthesis in all of her warships... Which with this way your ships will be both sanction-proof and deadly.
