And the a-70 ? Which role do they have ? Can they fire harpoons and exotec asm ?
They were also upgraded recently, and can launch harpoons, so they will remain in service at least until the Hangoor class is inducted.
So by 2025 can we hope PN will hold on its own in defensive mode???
PN has made efficient use of limited budget in the last 15 or so years, which has turned them into a nifty and lethal force that packs quite a punch. Their missile armada alone is sufficient to keep the enemy at least 600km away from our EEZ. BUT, after the arrival of Type-54AP, Hangoor AIP subs, ADA Jinnah and Damen corvettes, the PN by 2025 will see the fulfillment of its modernization plans.
