Same suite on sea sultan per pn chief but perhaps it will face asw, asuw and air role as well

I think the operative word is that they can be installed upon request. Clearly that does not seem to be the case in PN ones.

Edit: PN also probably could not find the right missile to integrate on the platform. The article specifically mentions Penguin, which is a relatively small ASM, mostly carried by helicopters.

In comparison, the Exocet is twice as large in dimensions and weight. Our older Atlantics used to carry them in the bomb bay vs pylons, which is not an option for the ATR.

How genuine is this? Looks like someone just put the ATR onto it. No missiles on wing?

Not fully accurate, just copied from ATR-72 MPA.

And they are wrong. The modification works can’t be done in Mönchengladbach.

Could be at a different facility with the requist runway

tbh I can't see how they'll get the optimal design configuration without Embraer's input.

Can E190 with alternation of additional fuel tanks works similarly like lineage 1000 for sea sultan project

I imagine it's doable. In fact, if you're going to modify an E190 for the LRMPA role, adding fuel tanks in some of the cargo area shouldn't be as complex as adding external hardpoints, a torpedo bay, etc.
