Pakistan Navy Tanker Fleet Specs and Discussions

Guys any new or more updates on the new tanker ?
 
What is current status of newly built Fleet Tanker of Pakistan?
 
The ship is ready only weapon installation is left and sea trials.
Saw it couple of weeks back. Work on fueling booms and superstructure is going on. It berthed at West Wharf near Port Grand. From the looks of it, will take a month or two to go for sea trials.
