why not, is good combination, with advance western Radar and cheap chinese missile (weapon), suite to as lack of budget
FYI, Algeria C28A (same frigate in news sales to RMN too) is using Thales Smart-S 3D radar (same with Gowind) than Mix chinese system (Combat system) using chinese weapon, and each C28A warship about usd 100-150 million only. 1/5 our Gowind Price, about 40-50% of DSME propose corvette Price.
and chinese shipyard newest warship already start using international standard and protocol to design/construct warship, so mix Chinese/western system not a issue. 

if u add a bit money, event can get more  powerful frigate better than Gowind in 50% of our Gowind price.

France to Return Money to Russia if Mistral Not Delivered - Arms Trader



LANGKAWI (Sputnik) — France will return money for Mistral-class helicopter carrier if it is not delivered to Russia, Rosoboronexport Director General said Tuesday.
The delivery of two Mistral-class assault ships to Russia was agreed under a $1.5 billion deal between Russian state-run arms exporter Rosoboronexport and French shipbuilder DCNS, signed in 2011.

"In fact, the money Russia spent on the purchase of the ships will be returned in full, no doubt, even with usury," Isaykin said adding that "everything is specified by the contract."

France was expected to deliver the Vladivostok, the first of the two ships, by November 14, 2014. However, on November 25, 2014, French President Francois Hollande said that the shipment would be suspended due to alleged Moscow's interference in the Ukrainian internal crisis.

He noted that France would lose most from the non-delivery of Mistral ships as it's image would be damaged greatly.
"A party that does not comply with its obligations will suffer more damage. First of all, moral damage, damage to the image of the country. I think that the French side is well aware of this," he said.

Russia will make final decision on non-delivery of Mistral warships by May since time frames still allow holding talks with France, Isaykin said. France and Russia are currently holding active talks, he added.

The Malaysia's Sukhoi Technical Centre will be doing the upgrade for the MiG-29? Under license from RAC MiG?

same like This howitzer is OTO-Melara ?  look very old...... like ww2 product.

its much better then USA's universal camo

I'm pretty sure we can afford it if we wanted to
It's only like what, 30 million?
It's basically a ferry converted to lpd with civilian specs
No military spec lpd is gonna cost 30 million
Sailing to somalia is not really a big deal

Well, I'm not quite good in ship knowledge. After make few comparison, length 130m doesn't fit with 13000t displacement. All LPD with 12000t~14000t displacement got >160m length.

LIMA 2015: Hyundai-Wia positions 76 mm guns for Malaysian corvette programme
Ridzwan Rahmat, Langkawi - IHS Jane's Defence Weekly
18 March 2015

Key Points

Hyundai-Wia is proposing its 76 mm naval gun for Malaysia's new missile corvettes
The company is offering one complimentary training turret should the RMN select the gun for all six boats

South Korean company Hyundai-Wia is proposing its 76 mm naval gun system for the Royal Malaysian Navy's (RMN's) new missile corvettes on order from Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME).

DSME announced in November 2014 that it had won an order to build six ships for the programme. The company's proposal for the corvette's weapons fit include one 76 mm main gun, two 30 mm guns near the aft section and four anti-ship missile launch systems.

Woo-Seuck Jang, a general manager at Hyundai-Wia's defence division, told IHS Jane's at LIMA 2015 that the 76 mm gun system his company is proposing is particularly suitable for the RMN ships because it has been operationally proven on platforms in service with the Republic of Korea Navy (RoKN).
