Maybe I'm getting old, or maybe something else has changed me to become more cynical lately.

But after reading this:


Which was actually posted in the official instagram account of PT PAL:


My first reactions especially about this part:



Was like:

"Just f***in' do it then!"

and,

"While you're at it, put more actual news about your products and real achievements and less about ceremonials, official visits and whatnots in your website!"

Oh well... It's time to order a big glass of iced tea, I guess...
Told it before too. Master the 3.0 before jumping on 4.0 or it will be all mess.
You can build 3 frigates in parallel *(the term itself is entirely wrong) without the 4.0 as well, 3.0 or even 1.0 is highly sufficient to enable it.

*there is no parallel production in shipyards unless you are a shipyard in china, korea or japan that are hiring vast of human resources, high automation and technology. It is literally a serial production where a process of the following hull starts after completion of the earlier one. Imagine a ship has typically 8-9 stages, the stages remain sequential.

How long the test should be done until it is ready for operational?
It's merely for proof of concept. And for the sake of our service member safety & wellbeing, I have the highest hope the boat doesn't go into operational status.

A surface combatant made out of plastic or aluminium is disaster waiting to happen

You're not the only one. In fact, in case you haven't noticed, there are 3 threads in this 🇮🇩 sub forum that are full of those ceremonial and over proud sentiments




Which is why I've always been snarky when replying to those over proud full of BS post in those threads. Those whose post all those don't even understand what they are posting all about, let alone having any related working / practical experience with the subject they were posting.

Also notice that there are few 🇮🇩 posters here whose main purpose of being here in this forum is to post all this BS and not for having any productive discussion at all. There is even certain poster whose doing it by creating multiple accounts just for that purpose.

A new trimaran vessel is good.
But I'm still waiting if this thing become reality or not...

Or left without any missile at all. Even in steel-constructed vessel, there's limitation how many hot missile can be fired untill the base (VLS, upper deck, etc..) need to be maintained.

If my braid serve me well, 🇮🇩 navy had no cold-launched AShM
Or you can just spray some water on the deck around the missile or rocket launcher, just like our KCR and Parchim to minimize the damage.

Weren't the Swedish Visby Class and the Norwegian Skjold Class are made also from composite material?

only the superstructure , the entire hull is using steel.
https://www.saab.com/products/composite-superstructure
^^ From the link. I think this link is just a solution offering by Saab combining steel and composite material.

"Derived from the Visby-class corvette’s 100-percent carbon fibre hull construction, we have successfully introduced the composite superstructure concept on the market for surface combatants."

Visby Class:

The 100% all-composite carbon fibre hull​


The hull and superstructure is made of the, in comparison, very light material all-composite carbon-fibre, giving the ship a number of significant advantages.

• Payload and displacement

The all-composite carbon fibre sandwich hull gives the Visby-class corvette a lower weight - 650 ton - than a steel ship of the same size would have. Thus the Visby-class corvette has a greater payload capacity. At the same the carbon-fibre means that the Visby-class corvette has at least a 50% reduction in displacement compared with a steel ship.

• Tough and robust

Even though the hull and superstructure is lighter than steel, it is still comparable for fire resistance and ballistic properties, and superior to steel for vulnerability to blast and underwater explosions.

• Life cycle cost

In terms of life cycle costs, the carbon-fibre composite is entirely superior to steel and aluminium for fatigue. The superior corrosion resistance reduces the platform lifecycle costs even further.

I've never liked, no...I've always completely DESPISE the way our people put SO MUCH importance on ceremonials. Upacara this, upacara that. Upacara 17an is the only exception.

Judge me all you want.

Proof that many members here, even the "senior" ones, are way behind in terms of technology. And we're talking about 2009 released corvettes :ROFLMAO:.

Btw, Saab doesn't play around, huh;).

Celebrating one of Swedish beauty.

The 🇬🇧 admiralty also believe the same thing before the Falkland War, until Exocet and 20 dead sailors change that.

It's very easy to saying this and that when you're not the one who will be risking your life in the line of duty. But then again, I don't expect most of you guys here to care the slightest about the safety & wellbeing of our service members when in the line of duty.

US Thought the same thing after exocet struck the USS Stark, though this case is for the aluminium one .
