HMS Dauntless showed off her prowess to one of Pakistan’s top Naval officers during a fact-finding visit to the UK.

The Type 45 destroyer hosted Admiral Muhammad Zakaullah, the Pakistan Navy’s Chief of Naval Staff, as part of a day spent in Portsmouth.

Admiral Zakaullah was given a tour of HMS Dauntless including the bridge and operations room and inspected a guard of honour on the flight deck.

The ship’s Commanding Officer, Commander Charles Guy, said: “It has been an honour to host Admiral Zakaullah on board HMS Dauntless to show just a few of the capabilities that the modern Royal Navy can bring to bear in oceans around the world.

Commander Charles Guy
“The Pakistani Navy and Royal Navy have often operated in partnership and visits such as this serve to strengthen those working relationships for the future.”

Before visiting Dauntless Admiral Zakaullah met senior officers at Navy Command Headquarters at Whale Island and his day in Portsmouth was rounded off with a tour of HMS Victory.

Fleet Commander, Vice Admiral Sir Philip Jones, said: “It was a pleasure to welcome Admiral Zakaullah to Navy Command headquarters and an excellent opportunity to discuss the good relations between our two navies and an increasing level of productive interaction between our ships.”

His five days in the UK also included visits to the Ministry of Defence in Whitehall where he met First Sea Lord Admiral Sir George Zambellas and discussed how the two navies worked together on global operations, including tackling piracy.

The visit culminated in a look round HMS Queen Elizabeth – the Navy’s new aircraft carrier under construction in Rosyth.

Nice job sir
 
I don't know How but I am 200 % sure that these BEASTS will come to Pakistan and be part of Pakistan Navy

That's a 1.5 billion dollar warship (2010 figures)....By now they must be costing excess of 2 billion dollar/unit.

The price should depreciate instead of appreciating. Assets looses value with the passage of time instead of increasing.
 
inflation is bigger factor.

In this case no.

Military technology available on the ship. Obsolete technology requiring replacement. Remaining useful life of the ship. Cost of refurbishment, if any are the major factors.

I am not talking about second hand ship rather a new one......If UK start building a new warship of Type-54 class today, It will cost only more.
 
if not type 45 maybe lower derivative of it... or we can say our new f23P might have british origin weaponry or arsenal. if its type 23 than I am happy still cause it has still superior firepower than any of our ships. Maybe F22p has better countermeasures but no arsenal better than 23. I did some research that Seacat 10km range AA missile is able to replaced with advance naval AA missile. Maybe if we get hands on those too we have a cheaper ship as used ships are quite cheaper with excellend modern weaponry.

Pakistan will never get the Type 45, but with this visit, at least the Chief of the PN has a direct idea of what a modern frigate ought to at least aspire to..
Sir what I know is UK offered it to us when Cameroon visited Pakistan during first year of current Government
