PNS Khaibar: Pakistan's New Warship Pales Against Indian Navy's Might
- •PNS Khaibar, a 3,000-ton warship from Turkey's MILGEM project, was handed to Pakistan, touted as a game-changer.
- •Equipped with stealth, ADVENT Combat System, and subsonic Harbah cruise missiles, it's compared to India's 4,000-ton Talwar-class frigates.
- •India's supersonic BrahMos missile (Mach 3) can easily overwhelm Khaibar's defense, designed for subsonic threats.
- •India's 6,700-ton Nilgiri-class frigates (Project 17A) boast 32 VLS cells, far superior to Khaibar's 12-16, ensuring missile saturation.
- •Indian P-8I Poseidon aircraft can detect and track Khaibar from beyond its radar range, making it an easy target.
Why It Matters: PNS Khaibar is a minor upgrade for Pakistan but no match for the Indian Navy's superior technology and firepower.
