During this exercise, Hamza deployed a single DM-2A4 torpedo against a decommissioned Pakistan Navy Tariq-class frigate and sunk the vessel with the round, said Turkish defence engineering company STM in a statement on 21 March.
STM was awarded a contract to upgrade Pakistan's fleet of three Khalid-class submarines, including Hamza , in 2016. As part of the upgrades, the boats are being fitted with a new underwater command-and-control suite, weapon control systems, sonars, attack and search periscopes, and electronic warfare effectors, among other equipment.
Upgrade work on Hamza was completed in early 2021 and the boat was handed over in April that year. Work on the remaining boats, PNS Khalid (S-137) and PNS Saad (S-138), is ongoing.

So right now PNS Humza is the biggest threat from the PN, we should surveillance capability to track it down and monitor its communications.

Baki 1st Armd Div giving up some of her prized T-80UDs in return for American military equipment? (one of those Lawhore to Krachi via Rome type deals)

Re: Pakistan Armed Forces: News & Discussion
Shameful that while the PN quickly did this, we were struggling to even order torpedoes for our submarines. The DM-2A4 is amongst the most lethal torpedoes in service today. And we could have ordered it and ensured the PN didnt have access to it, but as usual we dragged our feet on this most crucial of things.kit wrote:https://www.janes.com/defence-news/news ... g-exercise

A single T-80UD is 40T plus - aircraft are not the best way to transfer any of these assets.MeshaVishwas wrote:Baki 1st Armd Div giving up some of her prized T-80UDs in return for American military equipment?

And that's a pattern western arms manufacturers follow., cap the edge (leaks et all) , arm the competition (Pakistan, China), exploit the weakness, and thus enjoy new orders.Karan M wrote:Shameful that while the PN quickly did this, we were struggling to even order torpedoes for our submarines.

BTW wiki says India already deploys DM 2 mod 4.
Re: Pakistan Armed Forces: News & Discussion
On what platform?
Re: Pakistan Armed Forces: News & Discussion
The ToT from P-75I will negate the DM2A4's advantage. The first P-75I boat will arrive sometime in the late 2100s, when the world will have moved on to lithium powered warp drives...but the Indian Navy will tout the ToT of the P-75I. She will be lethal Sir!Karan M wrote:Shameful that while the PN quickly did this, we were struggling to even order torpedoes for our submarines.

Thats why Massa gave them a Oliver Hazard Perry-class frigate, after giving it a $65M refit for anti-sub operations. Pakistan then duly green painted and called it PNS Alamgir. It has been busy fighting Taliban navy, ISIS submarines and Al Qaeda frigates since then as part of GOAT.

Belgian C130swere bought in 70s, PAF bought theirs in 63. In 22, Belgian C130s are 50 years old. PAF C130s were also upgraded in 2016. So if PAF C130s are probably going to pony up for 3-5 years more. That would give PAF's belgian C130s atleast (7 + 3/5) 10-12 years of life till 2032-34.
