These are not Jinnah class. These are MILGEM class. 4 of these, then an unknown number of Jinnah class. Possibly 4-6+

Translated from Mr. Emre Koray GENÇSOY's Linkedin Post (He's Naval Platforms Tecnical Manager at ASFAT, Turkey):

At the launching ceremony of TCG Istanbul, the first ship of the İ-Class, held at the end of January 2021, PNS BABUR, with 6 blocks visible on the slipway, is ready to launch after 7 months with 37 blocks.

We sincerely congratulate the Istanbul Shipyard Command, which completed the construction with a superior performance, especially the Asfat personnel who struggled tirelessly for this cause, our design stakeholder Navtek, who did not give up the fight despite the changing design, and all our subsystem providers and subcontractors who continued to work under Covid conditions.
It was a difficult work, but thanks to the planning and collaborative method, we were able to take this rope proudly together.
Now we have a busy year ahead of us; while aiming to quickly complete the remaining activities and start the tests, at the same time; We continue our struggle on a difficult schedule, as there is 9 months for the launching of ship 3 in Karachi and 13 months for the launching of ship 2 in ITK.
In addition to all these, we are proud of the fact that the steel cutting of TCG AKHİSAR, which is the first ship of the Offshore Patrol Ship project, whose critical design activities continue, will be carried out together with this launching ceremony.
The range is long, the goals are big, we still have a long way to go. With our team that aims to walk together with all stakeholders and is getting stronger day by day, we are determined to take every step to reach this goal.
The result so far; It is a clear proof of what can be done when action is taken in a planned manner, together with all project stakeholders.

Common goal, common success...

I would say....
Respect people...

PS: According to information received, both Pakistani and Turkish presidents will be attending to the ceremnony.

The PN MILGEM is now the Babur-class corvette.

The PN MILGEM is now the Babur-class corvette.

Is the PN officially classing this as a Corvette? Seems strange as it is heavier and more capable then the F-22Ps that we class as Frigates.
