Looks like a very nice and well armed OPV...at a time when some OPVs in western countries are getting armed with like a 25mm auto-cannon and four machine guns.



This armament puts it in a much different league, and capable of taking on much larger vessels if it can get within range.

1 x Chinese AK-176M 76.2 mm,
4 x 2 C-802A anti-ship missiles,
2 x 6-cell RDC-32 ASW rocket launchers,
2 x CIWS.

Pakistan: first test of a nuclear-capable cruising missile from a submarine

Pakistan on Monday conducted a first cruise missile test from a submarine capable of carrying a nuclear charge and giving the country a credible chance of a second strike after an attack, the army said in Islamabad.
The missile was fired from a mobile underwater platform, and reached its target accurately, according to an official statement.
A military spokesman confirmed to AFP that the missile, with a range of 450 km, could carry a nuclear warhead.
"Babur-3 is the maritime variant of the Babur-2 ground cruising missile (GLCM), which was successfully tested last December," the statement said. "Pakistan sees this important development as a step towards strengthening a credible deterrent policy," the army said.

Pakistan and its neighbor India - which have waged three wars since their partition and independence of Great Britain in 1947 - have regularly conducted missile tests since they both demonstrated their ability In 1998.
Both countries are already capable of launching ballistic missiles, capable of carrying nuclear or conventional charges.
Bilateral tension is recurrent, especially in the disputed region of Kashmir.
