And how did ya detect submarine while the helos is in hanggar?
The ship doing the detecting, helos doing the hunting, no?

Did You mean Variable Towed Array Sonar or Dipping Sonar?

I just thought OPV job is for patrol and scuring ZEE, not to hunt and enggage submarine 🤔
An extra capability like this wouldn't hurt, now would it? Engagements are unpredictable, who knows.

Just go with the wind, someone is just put a more larger and advanced design OPV proposal literally they can outgunned and outweight most of the heavily armed Frigates in the region (that's including Singapore Formidable) and still had the gall to put it under advanced OPV programme

🤣🤣
Now that's something I wanna see

Well OPV is more about the mission not the ship size it self.
Wait wat? Big OPV? Indigenous design or not?

Based on the article one of the opv doesnt have heli hangar
I was wondering if perhaps TNI might consider opting for VTOL UAV for the vessel, maybe it doesn't need as much space when it's an UAV. But I'm just guessing here :)
