Sg's Victory class corvette in sun-set years.
The 6 vessels are expected to remain in used until <2035 before they are fully decommissioned.
Thier replacements are Sg's new 8000 to 10000 ton MRCV heavy frigates/destroyers.
But they are still potent. In fact and like most of SGs ships, they are overpowered i.e. packed to the brim with sensors and weapons.
They are better armed than many ships in South East Asia, including frigates. A Victory class corvette has better point and mini-local/area air defence than the majority of South East Asian naval vessels via 16 improved Barak 1 missiles (>12km range). Note: The Barak missiles are stored in 16 vls cells. Barak has a secondary anti-ship capability too.
She can take on frigates and destroyers and win esp. when linked to SG's over-arching battle management system with other sensor and weapon nodes.

Note: Anti-submarine capabilities taken over by the 8 LMVs, Formidables, incoming OPVs and MRCVs.
