Hey I'm sorry man I told you I'd post a comparison chart in the P-17 v/s 052C thread and forgot about it
Here I go now -
Project-15A Kolkata DDG v/s Type-45 Daring DDG
Dsplacement
P15A - 7,000tons
T45D - 8,000tons
THE INDIAN DDG CARRIES -
16 Cruise missiles [BrahMos supersonic ASCM (300km),
Nirbhay subsonic LACM (1000km)]
96 Surface-to-Air missiles [Barak-8 (70km),
Barak-8ER (120km), Barak-1 (12km; CIWS)]
180 Anti-submarine rockets (in 2 x RBU-6000 MRLs with 90+ rockets each)
4 30mm CIWS guns
1 100mm multipurpose gun
2 ASW/SAR choppers
THE BRITISH DDG CARRIES -
8 Cruise missiles [AGM-84 Harpoon subsonic ASCM (180km), or BGM-109 Tomahawk (1,700km)]
48 Surface to air missiles [Aster-15 (30km), Aster-30 (120km)]
2 30mm CIWS guns
1 20mm CIWS gun (Phalanx)
1 113mm multiprpose gun
1 or 2 ASW/SAR choppers
Main Radar
P15A - Elta EL/M-2248 MF-STAR AESA
T45D - SAMPSON AESA
The P15A with the MF-STAR AESA (considered better than the US Navy AN/SPY-1 AEGIS radar) coupled with the medium-range Barak-8 and long range Barak-8ER can provide missile defence capability that is very much comparable (if not equal) to the American Aegis.
The T45D's SAMPSON AESA (a lot weaker than MF-STAR) with the Aster-15/30 SAMs provide more or less the same level of ballistic missile defence, but the lower power of the radar makes the T45D more vulnerable to MF-STAR's jamming.
Furthermore, I'd expect P15A's tonnage to be higher than 8,000tons total full load. Due to basically two reasons -
1) The P-15 Delhi-class (to which P15A is the successor) already weighs > 7k tons.
2) Contemporary Chinese DDGs like Type-052C weigh around 7500tons full load but P15A is much
larger in size than 052C are carries almost
twice as many missiles and rockets, another
reason to believe it's tonnage is being understated.
