M'sia does have bigger ships and more manpower dont they? But in terms of fighting capability wise, I'm not so sure man...


Is that an Arleigh Burke class behind the aircraft carrier ?Originally posted by foxtrout8:With over whemming air support , survellience , undersea and surface combatant , surely we can beat the RMN . The RMN is not impressive at all if u will to know that the Malaysian SLOC is rather big. The RSN is an intensively train force with navies of other countries , our capacity have been tested in excercises and our might have been publically shown in annually live firing demostrations.
The first one behind the carrier in the 1st pic is a Ticonderoga. Compare the main superstructure with the 2 Arleigh Burke's at Changi in the 2nd pic, the Tico's superstructure is bigger and more boxy.Originally posted by szehao:Is that an Arleigh Burke class behind the aircraft carrier ?
Can't be a Ticonderoga rite ...
Wow, where u got this picture ... our MCVs man ... looks good!
Duotiga, actually I do have had enough of this kind of thing. But rest assured, the other mods and me will be watching this thread very closely to make sure that no flame wars will develop under our noses.Originally posted by duotiga83:ain't we not enuff of this vs thing?![]()

I checked it and it seems to be outdated a bit, since its last update, but its a find anyway..
we needs the fearless class PVs for anti-sub warfare so they would be reserved for butt kicking the malaysia's future scorpene class subOriginally posted by tripwire:a question....
why isit stated that the fearless class PVs are armed with gabriel ASM??
even if it is possible to arm the PVs with ASMs... why not arm them with harpoons rather then the gabriels ... especially after reviewing the fact that the RSN MGBs actually gave up its gabriels to be armed with the longer range harpoon....
if the PVs are armed with harpoons.... we could have 11 additional harpoon toting craft backing up our corvettes and MGBs...
the combine hapoons missile carried by the RSN would then easily exceed 160 harpoons... more then enough to drown the entire malaysian navy in a massive waves after waves of harpoons using OTH guidance from the Fokker 50 (which also carry harpoons and torps) or the E-2C hawkeyes that could be escorted by dozens of A-4s or Falcons that could also be toting harpoons as well....
combine RSAF and RSN... the RMN would quickly sink into the depths......![]()

there are simply not enough space onboard our ships lahOriginally posted by tripwire:oh... by the way... with STs experience in naval platforms... i would surmise that it should not be too difficult nor time laborius a task to make some changes to the PVs to carry harpoons right?? especially if its just to make the PVs a mere brainless lauching platform....?
Sir , Garbiel is a very important plateform to engage enemy vessel in packed straits and seas around our area. It can be manually guide to the target with its cruise level changable with the wave level.Originally posted by tripwire:a question....

it is just a dreamOriginally posted by foxtrout8:I find that the Mistral system shd go , or at least intergrate Barak VLS on the PVs ( 8 maybe ). Maybe space is a problem , but with innovation , we can intergrate it along the side with the deck.
Our navy is strong in the region of SEA, however there are some weaponary which should be replace to meet the growing regional naval powers
I believe new corvettees such as the Visby can replace our Fearless class Missile PVs , and new torpedoes to arm our ships. Torpedoes such as the ADCAPs can greatly increase our undersea warfare capability. Submarines such as the Israeli Dolphin Class or even the Russian Kilo SSK can be purchase to deal with the Scropene ( it will be great if the Submarine have Cruisemissile capability ).

Both are ASW missiles , but with different advantage and capabilities to be applied to different mission.Originally posted by LaserGod:what are Gabriel ment for?
What are Harpoon ment for?
Please wake up your ideas
Once upon a time , having Frigate is a dream , once upon a time , no one expect Singapore to survive through the Millenium.Originally posted by LaserGod:it is just a dream
our government are short of the cold hard cash in these times
if the govt splash so much money on these, the citizen will be moaning to the doors of SM Lee's house
so what are their advantage and capabilities?Originally posted by foxtrout8:Both are ASW missiles , but with different advantage and capabilities to be applied to different mission.
