Pakistan Navy's FAC-4, a First Indigenously produced warship, launched at Karachi Shipyard

[DESERT FIGHTER]

It is within the realm of possibility if Pakistan can get TOT, or even licensing.

Hell, even Egypt was able to get enough experience from licensing AN/TPS-63 and produce an upgraded version independent of America.

We do produce KLJ7,Griffos etc under license.
We also produce ground surveillance radars which we even sold to Jordan & are working on radars. But its not easy and the guy you were quoting is right to an extent.

What is the complement or number of people required for this fac plus deployment time at single stretch in days ?

Forward weapons system is unknown ?? Some say 37mm, other 30 and lastly even 23 mm

The FAC is also armed with one 30 mm forward gun, two 12.7 mm machine guns, and a single AK-630 close-in-weapons-system (CIWS) for point-defence coverage (against incoming AShM).

4-5km for aerial target and sea/surface target is impressive for small AK-630

The Azmat class is installed with two quadruple missile launchers to fire eight C-802 anti ship cruise missiles. The C-802 is an extended-range export variant of the Chinese-built YJ-8 anti-ship missile.

A big punch.....

First 2 have 8,8 C-802s n last 2 have 6,6 Harbahs

No, the deal would have been announced on DSCA.mil. This is indigenous development with probably foreign T/R modules or indigenous production that we don't know about.

Egypt does have a semiconductor company I found

An Egyptian American was one of the first developers of semiconductors m8.

The good are arriving slowly

a) We got our 4th Stealth fast attack ship
b) 2 Ships Launched in Romania for Damen company (Destined for Pakistan)
c) Milgem ships are being constructed
d) Chinese Elite Frigate is being constructed

Recommended Pakistan picks up the 4 Retired Destroyers from China
Functional and parked in China , should be used to beef up Navy

No thanks. Obsolete and very expensive operate.

As for the Azmat class, the 3rd ship i think already replaced the twin 25mm cannon with what appears to be a Aselsan 30mm SMASH or 25mm STOP. In this new variant i expect the same, but would much prefer a 30mm CIWS like type 1130 equiped with 6 HQ-10. Gives more punch for defense. But that may be overkill. Additionally i think calling them FAC is slightly misleading in that they arent exactly fast. They are more like light corvettes. They are definitely more heavily armed than the typical FAC and carry either 8 C-802 or 6 Harba (AShCm/LACM). As @Bilal Khan (Quwa) stated there isna requirement for 4-6 more FAC. I would actually want PN to acquire rights for FAC-55 design. It appears far more stealthy and is far faster at 55knots and appears to have 8 cell RAM/FL-3000N capability.
