Hangor Class Submarine | Updates & Discussion

Toxic said:
The hangor if traveling alone can cover that distance on its AIP alone while staying submerged and being virtually undetectable.

Would take two weeks but yeah pretty cool. If you are going at 4-5 knots you will run out of air before you run out of AIP + battery power.

Assuming they left Malaysia 2 days ago and are cruising at 20 knots they should arrive at Karachi in two days.

20 is too high for surfaced speed. Usually around 15 is the max. For example for the Kilo-class typical surface transit speeds are 10-11 knots. You can go faster if you submerge, up to 20 knots using max battery power but then you have to recharge battery again and again.
 
Recently commissioned submarine PNS Hangor — a Type 039B Yuan-class derivative — along with frigates PNS Taimur (F262) and PNS Aslat (F254), arrived at Tanjung Priok Port in Jakarta on 19 May.

One of the slowest induction is the Submarine platform upgrade
Even the Agosta Submarines were constructed at long development time

Unsure what Transfer of Technology we learned from Agosta program that we have to relearn it again with the Hangor Class submarines

However hopefully the first 4 will arrive soon

I think the engine issue with Germany is to blame for this.

Make the most of the photo's of this sub heading back to Pakistan, because once it is there, the quality of photo's will be from a digital camera made in 1989 liberally smeared with potato juices on the lenses...

The radius seems too small for a submarine of 2800 tons. Do we know why is that ?

Nobody can say if its small with this image only. As there is no reference. Had there be a human visible in the photo then could have known.

All we know is that Hangors hull is bigger/ wider than Agostas. As can be seen from satellite images too.

Operational radius (range).


And it's answered by others that this is likely a mistake by someone as even older submarines like agosta have range close to 6000-7000 km

Oh yes, the range. The hangors are derived from Yuan 039B/C. Their range is 8,000 nautical miles. So I assume Hangors would be close to that.
