We don't know anti missile load out and none of PLAN vessels have anything close to 16 Brahmos ashm. Also high placement of STAR radar make it far superior to anything china has when it comes to engaging low flying missiles.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-77034304626245964172014-07-11T21:01:59.877+05:302014-07-11T21:01:59.877+05:30What is wrong with Directorate of Naval Design?

No CIWS in front or back? 76 mm gun? Hey DND oldies, have you all gone nuts? <br /><br />Chinese Frigates and corvettes are equipped with more weapon platforms than this DESTROYER, which is horribly over-budget,took 10 years to be built and is still incomplete. <br /><br />Both DND and MDL need some to be disbanded.Krisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-64508007125539506222014-07-11T18:32:08.253+05:302014-07-11T18:32:08.253+05:30So, where are you from?

Any modern AAW destroyer needs to have a battery of at least 64 LR-SAM's supplemented by an equal number of SR-SAM's for point defense. <br /><br />There is a good opportunity for growth in this design. Perhaps a 2nd UVLS cell to hold LACM's can also be added to give the ship more offensive teeth. <br /><br />All in all looks to be a beautiful ship. Lets hope we build a group of at least 24 of this type to benefit from economies of scale. Rohanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09759040415557499286noreply@blogger.com
