Pakistan Navy’s 2300 Tons OPVs launched by Damen

The website of this company calls it Holland Class and it hardly is showing any weapon on it

Our ship isn't the Holland-class. Just look at the two, they're obviously different. It seems ours is a combination of the OPV and SIGMA.

@Rashid Mahmood @The Eagle From below video, it looks like a light destroyer or a corvette at least but not a mere OPV. What you guys think? @Quwa @Bilal Khan (Quwa)

This is not purely an OPV to be designated in such class. PN went with this one on the same route what we did with Jinnah Class (Turkey ADA) ships. A modified design, packed with more than usual weaponry fulfilling more duty in same class.

The Holland looks completely different. This is more along the lines of a modified Sigma corvette at @Bilal Khan (Quwa) points out.

In all likelihood it will have 2 load outs. One as just an OPV with a 75mm cannon, likely two 30mm SMASH or 25mm STOP guns or 2 CIWS. The otger load out will be more. Corvette like with The aforementioned guns but also AShM. It would be interesting tonsee if they can fit SAMs on this. Short of RAM (US unlikely to sell) or FL-3000N (Chinese unlikely to allow integration with foreign electronics), the Russian TOR-M2KM may be ideal, lashed behind the exhaust cones. It would give you a 16km vls SAM (though im not sure how many missiles come in the system. if another member (@Bilal Khan (Quwa)) would be able to shed light on that id be grateful). This system can be equipped or removed at will so it would be ideal for this vessel and its various roles.

Is there possibilities of data links between a lanes and ships in order to use guided missiles, that can be force multiplier deadly or a life saver in some cases

Link 16 possibly

 

[Humble Analyst]

Link 16 possibly

This is a good force multiplier if used appropriately
Thanks for sharing

Still no news of weapons fit on these ships ?? And assuming total order will go up to 4

So 4 054
4 f-22p
4 Turkish
And 4 danish boats will make pm surface offensive fleet
Supported by fac and pmsa boats with missile capabilities when needed

Why two I think there r three boats, two boats on the side and one third one on the rear Wramp so should be carrying three RiBS

??

Rear behind/below heli deck is another boat launch pad ??

Also on the side 11m and 6.5 meter rib

Also 2 x 20 ft container under deck visible

It has been removed from the newly built Type 056A corvettes for lowing the cost.

I think pmsa new 6 ships carry this guns system in the front and 12.7 mm in the rear and pn will also adopt it unless pn is going with Turkish 30 mm
