Design of Future TKMS Built Saar 6 Braunschweig-class corvette for Israeli Navy Unveiled

[Penguin]

So does it really have 32 Barak and 16 AshM? Pound for pound, that would make this the most heavily armed warship in the world.

Saar 5 was designed for 2x32 Barak 1 and 2x4 Harpoon and 2x 4 Gabriel. Top weight issues precluded that load ever to be carried in actual service.

The 915 ton UAE Baynunah class has 1 Oto Melara 76/62mm Super Rapid, 2 Rheinmetall MLG 27 27mm guns, 2x4 MM40 block 3 Exocet, 1 mk49 mod3 21-cell RAM launcher, and four Raytheon MK48/56 cells vertical launchers for the 8 ESSM. It too has a stern helicopter deck with a single landing spot for a medium-sized helicopter such as the AS 565 Panther anti-surface helicopters. It too has a fully equipped hangar.
