Aliaselin, I've reread the entire thread. Probably I thought you were being sarcastic in #113 about post #112. With hindsight, your statement was actually supportive. Apologies!

I don't think I have in any way interfered with Aliaselin.

Available public sources indicate radar and electronic equipments on C28A will be western. Engines may well be MAN diesels. Many Chinese domestic and export warships - including Type 054/A - have diesels from non-chinese origin, or locally built licenced copies thereof. It would make sense to align weapons fit with MEKO A200, but the Algerian navy operates ships and systems from a variety of sources (Russia, China, Italy, Germany) so it would not be strange to find it isn't aligned. Also, elements of a Chinese weapons fit could match with some other systems already in service (e.g. Russian AK176mm cannon and Chinese AShM missile on Djebel Chenoua class FACs.)
 
Most recent official model; it shows only small difference to the CG. That guy must have some private information to do the CG

It is hard to believe Algeria only bought simplified type 730 and HHQ-7 as SAM; however, this may be why it is a corvette but not a frigate.

Accurate parameter from CSTC delegate：
length: 120m, wideth: 14.4m, draught: 3.87m, loaded: 2880 ton.
armament:
- A single barreled 76mm main gun
- 8x C802A anti-ship missiles
- 1x FM90N launcher with 8x surface to air missiles
- 2x Type 730 CIWS located on top of the helicopter hangar
sonar from China, searching radar is SMART-S MK2, navigation radar is from Kelvin Hughes.

Other three built locally is on discussion for China and Algeria.

There's your answer.
It's in effect a 'light frigate'.
