LOL，the guys who made the table took C28A for 056A. They are so different and C28A is almost twice of 056. Moreover, designation of 056A has been used to name the ASW version of the corvette.
The Algerian Armed Forces.

There is a tonnage discrepancy.. The circulating news among the Algerian army aficiendo's is the the tonnage of the ships ordered nears the 5000T...the C28A is around 3000T..So let wait and see..
You guys give us only 38 months from design to delivery, so 5000T is really too hard to complete. It is not only a problem of building a larger hull, but means more complicated system and much longer time for sea trial. So I still insist on that the ship a around 3000T.
Will the BDSL use Aster30 or Aster15? and your MEKO A200 with ESSM or SM-2? The air-defence for Algeria Navy is awesome but what kind of hulls you guys used for ASW mission?

The construction of the Algerian BDSL advance
01/07/2013
Folder (s): Algerian Navy

Important amphibians and hospital capacity
The BDSL will have significant amphibious capability. A strike, opening onto the rear house three landing craft (Landing Craft Mechanized). In addition, to port, davits will make the water three barges type LCVP (Landing Craft Vehicle Personnel). The rest of the syndrome include, inter alia, a barge type LCP (Landing Craft Personnel) and two speedboats for commandos (RHIB). These means will land on a beach of troops and their equipment, including armored vehicles. The building will have for this purpose a garage that can, among other things, accommodate 15 heavy tanks, as well as housing for 440 soldiers, plus 150 crew members. The BDSL rigged to serve as command ship (means of communication developed for a local joint staff) will also have important medical infrastructure, with a 50-bed hospital with operating rooms, to ensure the troops landed a health support or serving in humanitarian operations for the benefit of civilians.

Arms and consistent electronic equipment
But compared to what is usually found on buildings projection Algerian BDSL will stand above all the power of its electronic equipment and armament. It will have a EMPAR, three-dimensional radar developed by Selex Sistemi Integrati, which equips air defense frigates Horizon type, aircraft carrier Cavour and the Italian multi-mission frigates. This radar will be used to detect long-range air and fire control Aster 15. The BDSL will, in fact, the first building amphibious and airmobile to implement these anti-missile missile developed by MBDA projection. In all, 16 ammunition will be housed in two vertical launchers at the rear of the block. The weapons also include a turret 76mm OTO Melara, which can be used for air defense or against surface targets, but also fire against coastal targets. The artillery will be complemented by two tele-operated guns 25mm, 76mm managed as a fire control NA 25 FCS Selex SI. Finally, the building is equipped with a full suite of electronic warfare supplied by Thales and Elettronica, associated with two decoy launchers SCLAR-H OTO Melara-.

A second unit?
This equipment will BDSL to ensure their own protection and that of the landed, including an aerial threat against anti-ship missiles or units. This is a considerable advantage, especially as defenses are often the weak point of projection ships, which must always be escorted when operating in a sensitive area. The BDSL will therefore not have this problem, its capabilities offering even broader spectrum than most of its counterparts (which in large marine move toutefoisavec destroyers and frigates Senior capacity which is currently Missions without the Algerian fleet).
Note that, according to some sources, the contract signed by the Italian consortium Sistemi Navali Orizzonte (common Fincantieri and Finmeccanica Company) has an option for a second BDSL. If it is strengthened, the building could be achieved by technology transfer in an Algerian site.

Extensive modernization plan of the Algerian fleet
BDSL the program is at the heart of the vast modernization plan enjoyed the Algerian Navy.It now has four submarines of the Kilo-type, two new buildings were delivered by Russia as the first two (commissioned in 1987 and 1988) have been modernized. The surface fleet will, in turn, undergo a profound change in the coming years. Were notably ordered three frigates from China and two in Germany (Meko A200 Type). A new missile patrol, improved version of the three C58 (1988 to 2002) is also nearing completion at Mers el-Kebir. Three large tugs type UT 515 CD, improved version of the Abeille Bourbon and Abeille Liberté French, were also delivered in 2012 by the Norwegian shipyards Vard (ex-STX OSV).
