Interesting, PN seems very much keen on 055 Destroyer and it seems first Jinnah Frigate is starting to be made

 

[Qureshi]

Most important point seems to be capability enhancement of KS&EW/naval dockyard, where 14 ships can be construct/repair simultaneously.

And...

The update on construction of Pasni Shipyard (Gwadar) which was announced in 2021.

Can you share the program about ship yards they were referring to?

 

[Qureshi]

Missing updates on ....

• Shallow water SSPs - PN is in advance stage in finalizing type/design (fincantieri - S1000)
• LRMPA program (Sea Sultan)
• Helicopters for surface vessels
• Replenishment tanker/Auxiliary ships
• HALE-UCAV - PN is interested in TW328-A

Pasni Fish Harbour project crumbles after directors and managers plunder millions in funds.

The eleven-year long Pasni Fish Harbour project has drowned in corruption, the National Accountability Bureau of Pakistan has revealed.

The NAB has registered a case against the project director Muneer Ahmed, Ali Gull Kurd, Deputy Project Director Abdul Rab and several others for plundering the project funds for personal gain.

The new dry dock is large enough to handle the Chinese designed Type-039A/B submarines.

Pakistan’s New Type-039B AIP Submarines: Image Shows Shipyard Expansion​

​

The Pakistan Navy's expansion is gearing up in Karachi. Major enhancements are evident at a shipyard, where a new construction hall and a dry dock greatly increase capacity. Although details are scarce, it seems likely that the local construction of Chinese-designed AIP (Air Independent Power) submarines will take place there.​

The eight Type-039B ‘Hangor Class’ submarines will be a major boost to the Pakistan Navy. They will more than double the size of the Pakistan Navy’s submarine fleet.

The new submarines are variant of the Chinese Navy’s Type-039A Yuan Class. Construction will be split between the China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation (CSIC) and Karachi Shipyard & Engineering Works (KSEW) in Karachi. KSEW previously participated in local construction of Pakistan’s French designed Agosta class submarines.

The construction site in Karachi may put to rest previous reports that the subs would be built in Ormara. In 2016 it was reported that the local submarine construction would occur at a new Submarine Rebuild Complex (SRC) being built there. No significant construction work is evident at Ormara.

The new construction hall and dry dock are at the southern end of KSEW’s Karachi shipyard site. Footings for the halls was first observed in 2015. The twin-lane halls have slowly taken shape since then. The outer shell appears largely complete. Under their roof there should be enough room to build two submarines in parallel.

Work on the aligned dry dock appears to have started in 2016. It is a Norwegian designed Syncrolift ship-lift type built out over the water. Manufacture of the sections likely took place in China. The dry dock is 126m (415 ft) long and 32m (105 ft) across and has a lifting capacity of 7,881 tons. This is large enough for the new submarines, and would allow frigate sized warships and larger submarines in future.

Based on current information the first of the new submarines, built in China, is expected to be delivered in 2022. Local construction of the last four hulls will last through to 2028. The acquisition from China is part of a trend. Several major Pakistan Navy warship programs have gone to China in recent years. And the Pakistan Navy and Chinese Navy already cooperate closely, included close exercises involving Chinese warships and Pakistan Navy submarines.

New construction halls and dry dock in Karachi are taking shape. Although official details are scarce, we understand that the new site will be for the local construction of Type-039B AIP submarines for the Pakistan Navy.

I doubt it bro. Yes, keen to be fond of, but PN clearly knows that it's not going to get it.

I watched this episode a couple of days back, the host asked the question about type-055 and the admiral replied in a lighter note, that if you can get that negotiated for us, we'd be more than happy. Admiral specifically mentioned that "access to that ship" is not easy and its going to cost upto 2 billion dollars. So Type-055 is clearly off limits to PN and PN knows it. However, PN can have an aspiration for about 7000 tonnage destroyers. In the future, it may look for Type-52DE OR more likely Type 54B which is 6000 tonnage frigate with long range SAMs, PDMS and very stealthy design as well.

The land acquisition is still not done. State's non-seriousness in such critical project is alarming.

Yep. However, Shipyard will be constructed away from this spot. This shallow water area is only for fish harbour. There's no enough space here as crowded town is merging with the fish harbour. Baluchistan govt has to allocate atleast 750 acres of land for shipyard project. That is yet to be done. The intended land is already empty, I don't understand what's the hindrance.

The Pasni fish harbour project and Pasni Shipyard are two different projects.

The is unrelated to this thread. The Pasni Fish harbour is separate to proposed Pasni Shipyard project. Fish harbour is just a local level project. It's significance is nothing in comparison to the national level project of Shipyard. Shipyard will cost billions and will earn many times more. The proposed Gwadar/ Pasni Shipyard is a strategic & critical requirement for Pakistan.
