I suspect by 2022. BNS Osman (F18) essentially works as a corvette and was purchased in the late 80s. In July 2015 BN placed follow on orders for 2 Type 056 corvettes, these are due to arrive late 2018 or early 2019 and when they do BNS Osman will be the first to be retired.

I doubt BNS Osman will retire soon. Only few years ago they installed c-802 missile in it.
The engine can be overhauled and black smoke can be taken care of.

She went for refits primarily for UN operations in the eastern Med and anti-piracy opps. From what I have been told, this will be the last refit, she will be replaced in duties when additional Type 056s arrive.

Ohh and the black smoke is not continous.

Wrong,we recently fitted C-802 missiles and upgraded it and it'll stay in service till 2025-2030,but be sure that after 2020,it will be used mainly for training.It won't be retired,rather,would be used for training or other purposes.

has come of age to be a naval musuem... soon after we buy new ones.

The ex-BNS Umar Farooq and ex-BNS Ali Haider could have been used as museum ships.
