Can they be used in mountains of Waziristan?

Re: Pakistan Additional Ordering China-F22P four frigates [Photo]

Pakistan is ordering more of these F22 frigates? Is that what you said?

Khekeshan, everything is not about waziristan. You already know the political reality there so why bother?

Re: Pakistan Additional Ordering China-F22P four frigates [Photo]

^^ Noop. It is an old news. The deal was signed in 2005. Pakistan is buying old model Chinese frigates Jianghu class (Type 053H).

Even Chinese Navy doesn't want to buy these anymore. So China will sell the blue prints of this retired model to Pakistan.

Pakistan is paying $600 to $750 million for 4 frigates.

Do google or wiki to find out more.

Nice... We need to expand our Navy.

Re: Pakistan Additional Ordering China-F22P four frigates [Photo]

Pakistan is supposed to license manufacture them but I don't think we have the industrial structure to completely make whole ships yet. Even the Agostas that Pakistan made had their engines etc come from France and the hull was made for a cheaper price in pakistan.

Re: Pakistan Additional Ordering China-F22P four frigates [Photo]

Even China doesn't have the technology. Read up on F-22P. It has Russian 76mm gun. Pak Navy doesn't trust 100mm Chinese gun on this Frigate. The same goes for SAM and other missiles. China reverse engineered French Crotale and named it HQ-7.

Pakistan will pay $600 to $750 million of hard earned money and buy the hull design for one frigate.

巴基斯坦海军现共有3艘驱逐舰,8艘护卫舰,由于没有制造大舰能力,巴基斯坦现只能通过购买获得用以换装的新舰。

Under the contract, all of the eight-F22P frigates will be delivered in six years. Four of them will be in Karachi, Pakistan shipyard production. Currently, the construction has an expected completion in 2008.

Re: Pakistan Additional Ordering China-F22P four frigates [Photo]

I see what you are saying now. So Pak Navy has added 4 more to the original 4 making the total to be 8.

Thanks for the update.

Re: Pakistan Additional Ordering China-F22P four frigates [Photo]

Maybe Pakistan should get into the program with the saudis for buying the stealthier La fayette corvettes..

Re: Pakistan Additional Ordering China-F22P four frigates [Photo]

^^ Thats an overkill. +the Saudis are only going to buy them, not manufacture them. So, we wouldn't have much chance of getting a manufacturing license from the French, which provides more local jobs & experience in ship-building.

Re: Pakistan Additional Ordering China-F22P four frigates [Photo]

I believe Saudis had a plan for some "license manufacturing" [makings hulls like us]. With the upcoming Gawadar port, we need some presence in the sea and corvettes would be preferred choice considering frigates and destroyers are much expensive and out of reach of PN's budget.

PS Negotiations with saudis and french shouldn't hurt.

Re: Pakistan Additional Ordering China-F22P four frigates [Photo]

F22P is a frigate

Re: Pakistan Additional Ordering China-F22P four frigates [Photo]

Yeah chini chapti frigate..

PS So how many frigates we will have now considering F22 will end up replacing the older british ships we have..
