Looks like the purse strings have opened.

4 FFG to be confirmed
3-6 ATR MPA

Despite recent acquisitions, PN is in a bad shape. I have heard horrid inside stories regarding obsolete equipment being used extensively. Still navy chaps are spending money lavishly on not so important personal interests.

Care to enlist those lavish personal interests?

Sorry Dude cant always blame debt or government. It is pn's own fault first not producing more of agosta 90's when they definitely had chance(S) yes (S) not a one chance but multiple. then again they ignored f22p after inducting 4. Something is better than nothing Type 054A is good in AA otherwise its as good as f22p. But I remember this news that jf17 with cm 400AKG I think this jf17's induction of CM 400AKG is good force multiplier. They still can buy stuff. its just that their own commission gets low its not like pn is angel there is corruption too they do get funds if not for frigates than atleast azmat type FACS.
But I am not worried at all if pn gets or not any more ships we are nuclear power, Not saying we will surely use it always but still its what keeps our enemies sleeping otherwise there had be by now at least two more indo paks or might even US intervention in our country.

Those subs came only with information of metullargy and induction of mesma not all components. We cannot make more bcz all components came from France and were only installed by us. Same case goes with F22-P, if we want to make more we had to buy those modular components from China and fit them in F22-P s. All these vessels came under soft loans by these countries. If we want to make ourself we need $$$. How we get those we have to ask Zardari or Malik Riaz perhaps
