[Amigator]

Did i see SR2410C radar on this picture?

Yes. As a replacement to Sea Hawk Radar. I read it in other thread.

sir what are difference between f-22p and type-54a

Apples and oranges sir!
F-22p, the ones we operate are 2400-2500 ton ships based on Type 53H FFG while the F-22p Batch II is going to be Type 54P based on Type 54A, about 4000 ton category.

We are now choosy because we can afford a better options now compare to Pakistan which is seeking bailout to IMF China Saudi Arabia to solve balance of payment with hardly 10 billion dollar reserve compare to 30+/- billion reserve of Bangladesh.
But at the end Pakistan have chosen a nice frigate compare to earlier f-22p . I hope this induction will improve the capabilities of PN and conventional military balance restored in the region .

Bangladesh has not been part of any global war not faced any hidden active war thursted on it, its a proxy of Indian hegemony so you cannot compare yourself with Pakistan in any manner.

Sir on banner it says F-22p Batch II. The second batch is a new platform, based on a different category ship. May be it will have some sub system commonality with existing Type 22p, like AShM etc so being called as a next block/batch of existing system.

Maybe it will have new AShM, CM302.

It will be interesting to find whether it has HQ-16C.

I personally think that we will be keeping same AShM.
For SAM, it will have HQ-16, almost certain about it. Not sure about C though. Perhaps A or at best B! Most likely A though.

I will try to get in touch with someone and try to get a little bit more information.

HQ-16A and HQ-16B are land-based versions.

 

[Arsalan]

HQ-16A and HQ-16B are land-based versions.

Sorry i meant it in terms of range. The HQ-16 is VLS in almost sure to come with these new ships. The addition 1600 tons that we will be going for are mainly for providing that air defense cover that we seriously need.

054A frigate is a real blue water warship with point air defence while F-22p might be a coastal frigate.

 

[LKJ86]
