Speaking of VL Antiship missiles .... Kongsberg and Lockheed Martin are working together to integrate the JSM missile (a varian of the NSM) with the MK 41 vertical launch system.
NSM is just under 4m and could fit with a 5.3 m MK41 Self defence launcher.
I.E. about 3m shorter than Brahmos in a VLS. Now that could fit a missile boat quite well!
Kongsberg showcased a Vertical Launch Joint Strike Missile (VL JSM) during AUSA 2014

Ship-launched missiles
Derived from that missile boat is an ASW patrol boat Project 1241.2 Molniya-2 a.k.a. Pauk class aka Abhay class

No, a Project 1241 Molnya (NATO: Tarantul) class missile boat. Veer is a Indian built version of that.I guess the pic, Sudhir has posted is not about this ship but some russian missile boat maquette, OSA class probably.
