Chinese shipyards pumping out Coastal patrol vessels at astonishing rates

To further attempt to solidify its control over disputed waters in the East and South China Seas, the Chinese coast guard have received a large number of brand-new heavy coastal patrol vessels from Chinese shipyards. Due to their simpler designs in contrast with military naval ships (light armor, light weaponry, basic radar systems), these patrol vessels can be designed and built very quickly, in order of approaching commissioning rates of one ship per month.

Pictures below originate from Guangzhou Shipyard:
Wow, I think most ASEAN navy's warships are smaller than these

Three new KCR-40 missile boats (4th, 5th and 6th units) are launched simultaneously by Palindo shipyard




KRI Siwar (646), the fifth KCR-40 class missile boat



Its two sister ships, with AK-630 as main gun and CIWS

all easy target by anti-ship missile

hahaha if have to use anti-ship missile to sink coast guard ship probably means you have way too many anti-ship missiles.
Same case as using a TOW missile to shoot a pickup truck. Wasting.

Anyway not likely coastal patrol ships will take on a straight warship. That's serious escalation. they both operate on different situations also.

problem is no navy ship dare to attack them except maybe US ...

china used their coast guard ships as a form of power projection over territorial claim because they know if they were to send real war ship, it can escalate very badly and spill over

that why many countries are stocking up on anti-ship missiles even obsolete ones because those cutter are basically defenseless. It also a trump card for china because it can become and excuse for them "hey u attack my unarmed coast guard, you will pay for this" giving them a solid military intervention reason

anyone also dare to attack them, depending on the country policy and action plan

Just nobody want to make the first moves

^^^ This

Thats why we always see coast guard-to-coast guard action ,they'll be spraying each other like they're both on fire.

basically same....

Actually there are 4 units KCR-40 (pennant number 645, 646, 647 & 648) & 1 unit Patrol Craft (pennant number 851) to be launch simultaneously.

not enough shock, December time we will see 12000 tons china Coastal patrol vessel launch, that will see bigger than destroyer ship....

Ya, I heard about this earlier this year. If it is 12,000 ton ship, it has to be nuclear-powered if it wants to have a good performance level. Ship that heavy if only powered by normal engines will perform like a lumbering container ship than a patrol vessel.

Or maybe it will use old steam turbines and boilers

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_cruiser_Tone_(1937)

Any information about their names?

Not worry, they using marine gas turbine ....

Chinese Coast Guard set to receive new 5,000 ton patrol vessels

Wuhang Shipyards are putting the finishing touches on China's largest coastal patrol vessels to date, two 5,000 ton patrol vessels (number 1306 and 1307) that is estimated to be about 125 meters long with a total displacement of approximately 5125 Tons. The patrol vessels are lightly armed but have hangar facilities that allow it to operate helicopters on patrol missions.

The two ships are part of an order made by the Chinese Coast Guard earlier this year that includes the construction of up to ten 3,000 ton vessels and four 5,000 ton vessels. China regards these ships as essential to the security of China's claims on disputed island chains in the East and South China Seas.

(These new ships are not to be confused with the existing CMSA (Chinese Maritime Safety Agency) Haixun-class patrol vessels that also weigh 5,000 tons and recently joined the search for MH370.)

The TNI-AD Leopard 2s photo was taken using a HDR photo effect.

The info was from the person that posted the photos. Unfortunately not much details of the names of those KCR-40s except for the KCR-40 with the pennant number 646 named as KRI Siwar as clearly shown from the photo. Looks like these 4 units KCR-40 & 1 unit PC are in preparation for the official launching ceremony.
