Here is the first:

DAMEN is a dutch company but it has manufacturing facility in Romania

And we order 2 corvettes and not 1
 
Romanian Ship yard manufactured 2 Ships 93 meter long , in 2-3 years
Our local shipyard is nesting on the Azmat class 4th missile boat for 3 years a boat aroun 75 meter or so mark

Hope that the Pakistan Shipping Yard , also steps up their game a bit

We could have constructed same ship locally 100% but we needed to have a large
Man power base for it

I hope we order 2 more while we fit Anti Ship Missiles , SAM's on the existing ones .
 
I will not discount the FM-90N to this extent. It is a decent, albeit short legged SAM system that can be used against a variety of threats.
I agree -- my earlier statement was harsh. It was an outcome of our options at that time, but the PN really will go through a massive AAW jump via the Type 054A/P (32 VLS w/HQ-16) and MILGEM (16 VLS w/HQ-16).
 
its off topic. when will the milgem come ?

No denying that.

Anyone know which sensor suit and CMS will be fitted with these ships ...??
