2020 will be an interesting year for PN.

PN will end up with 5 major induction may be 6

1 pmsa kolachi
1 facm modified locally
2 Corvette
1-2 type54p
May be 1 hangoor class submarine
1 More ras72 MPA

It can't get more exciting than this
On the down side PN MIGHT decommission 2-3 type21 this year or next year after full induction of type54p

Or pn might soldier on 4 remaining type21 till light frigate being build with turkey fully inducted

Nevertheless 2020 will see PN major transformation

Is PN interested in acquiring Destroyers? If yes then what about some options from EU side:

Horizon-class frigate seems the best fit.

@mingle @PWFI
I really like the two main guns on each side.

These very effective in close support missions and give greater firepower and protection on each side.

A used 737-700 is about $25-30 million and cost $7-8k/hour to operate (civilian version)

A perfect aircraft to modify for use. Spares are available everywhere on the planet so no shortage there.

You mean buy some used ones and add MPA equipment according to our needs and requirements.

Sound cool to me. But let see what experts have to share.

Also, we can look towards Airbus models as well which are already in PIA's inventory.
