from spesificatin the ship later will be our ASW ship replace parchim class perhaps with hull mounted sonar but not include torpedo launcer

Istanbul, 30 October 2024.

Both will be equipped with up to 2x4 atmaca. Oh boy, thats a lot of missile

hope speed still 40 knots+ and use gas turbine engine as well , if nothing change spesification will be our fastest KCR ever in Indonesia

FACM70 has gas turbine (likely LM2500 looking at the exhaust but can't confirm, might be RR)
FPB68 (still not confirmed either, either it is truly FPB68 being constructed in PT. PALINDO or FACM70's sistership) has maximum speed of 50 knots, with again one LM2500.

tell me more, why not confirmed FPB68?

Interesting, at the ceremonial plate, it showed hybrid config for FACM70 (water jet+propeller), and no Gokdeniz CIWS. Will it be affecting the top speed/performance?

That doesn't seem like a propeller but the impeller of a waterjet to me, the overall structure is the cross section of a typical water jet. They might have wanted a cool looking gift plate.

Also see there are no rudders, the center waterjet is a booster, the shown propeller must be impeller of the side & steerable waterjet.

And yes possibly no Gökdeniz, and only one RCWS, ESM seems to be omitted.

Tesco Indo Maritim PT arleady had water jet engine on their KCR 60 that showed to Prabowo two years ago, apa kabarnya nih kapal.....?

In terms of displacement this is half of KCR70M or FPB68 (NG-FPB). The model propelled with WJ would naturally have less displacement than propeller one, therefore expect even lower than 400 tons displacement, or if more, less speed. Also WJ installation costs more weight than propeller-shaft installation, and deletes a buoyancy due to the space it occupies from the outer contour line of the hull.

At those displacements you can't unlock 40+ knots easily.
You either go composite at those sizes and make 40+ with all diesel propulsion, or go steel and go CODAG with one booster WJ.

TESCO made a show but possibly it wasn't a thorough one. Let's see if follow-up orders for KCR60 is granted to them.
