'Extended Range' is all what mentioned in the press release.

They still don't have any CIWS, also only a single SMASH tube has been seen.

Lowkey we might only be able to put 2 SMASH (1 each side) per ship because of the weight

Nah probably 4-6, it weighs less then the CM-302, and the baburs were designed to be equipped with SMASH from the start.

Why did PN go with a SMART S MK2 on the Baburs? It's a mediocre last gen PESA ATP.

SMART S Mk2 is perfectly fine for a lightly armed corvette which is what Baburs are at the end of the day.

But to answer your question, SMART S Mk2s were locally produced by Aselsan and it was the default choice for Ada-class/Milgem. Now Aselsan offers the Cenk series instead which are AESA. We might see them on remaining Baburs if PN hasn't already paid for the smart s mk2s.
