What's new

We welcome class S20 Submarine in our Naval Fleet Def. Min. Khwaja Asif

-Export version of Chinese Type 039A "Yuan" Class submarine

-Scaled down version of the original sub

-Modular construction

-Kilo design influences on the original susubb

-Displacement 1850 ton & 2300 ton

-crew of 38,endurance of 60 days and has 6 torpedo tubes for 533 mm torps

-max depth of 300m

-S20s lack AIP,but can be easily fixed

it wont be scaled down but a heavily modified version, normal variant cost around $350 million, PN is paying more than 500, so it will have AIP, and most probably LACM capability.
 
any one have a doubt so please check google earth, and check submarine is already underconstruction
 
8 Modified Yuan (041A) Class DE Subs. (Modified specifically as per PN's requirements)
All fitted with AIP.
All capable of firing SLCM's.
PN Will install the propulsion system, tactical systems and weapons systems of its own choice.
KSEW is already gearing up for the construction of these subs.
(No details will be made public yet.)

my sources at KSEW are also confirming this......

Pakistan To Buy Eight Submarines From China

the remaining two?
 
This is a good news for Pakistan.After having these subs Indian Aircraft carrier will not dare to come out of its "bill" like past.And perhaps also Nuclear subs too,coz if one go down India will cry high.:pakistan::guns:
You are whining as if there are no asw helicopters on IAC :OMGHAHA:
 
India needs to come up quickly to address this new underwater Pakistani threat.
We pose no threat to India. We are replacing lost capability as per our needs. It is still a minimal credible defensive move. So don't worry your pretty head.

Agreed. But India's underwater capabilities are already dwindling. India needs to counter this move with acquisition of submarines that have both technological and numerical edge over Pakistan. Remember, India has a much larger coastline to defend.

Who is stopping India. Each country needs to do what it feels is its legitimate right and need.

These submarines will be based on latest AIP and technology. So i am not sure how India is going to have an edge.
Your Ship procurement is fast, but submarine procurement is slow. We need 11 submarines so that in any case we have at least 8 submarines spread out in the Arabian sea or Indian Ocean to deter any ships from IN closing in.
Next step will be new ships hopefully
 
Pakistan Navy will procure western subs and addition to these Chinese subs.....Lets see from where and which ones..

I wouldn't put those sources at risk by mentioning them here.
State secrets are very sacred and those who guard them have a responsibility.

Any news is restricted unless announced by the proper authority.
