The Pakistan Navy has become the first maritime force in the region that is equipped with stealth technology after its first Fast Attack Craft (FAC) equipped with missiles was launched on Tuesday. India also launched its FAC on the same day in Kochi.

“The version Pakistan has bought has far better qualities and added features including cost efficiency and multi-role in any combat activity,” said an insider. “The inclusion of the FAC-M in Pakistan navy will enhance its capacity to fight against terrorism and extremism.”


According to the Pakistan Navy, the FAC-M, designated as PNS Azmat was launched at Tianjin (Xingang Chinese Shipyard) in an impressive ceremony where Pakistan’s Chief of Naval Staff (CNS) Admiral Noman Bashir was the chief guest. The vessel will be the first of the Azmat class FAC, scheduled to be delivered to the Pakistan Navy within six months.


The missile craft construction project represents a quantum leap, not only in defence production in the maritime sector of Pakistan, but also addresses a long-standing operational requirement of the Navy. The fast attack craft is equipped with advanced weaponry and sensors, including the C802A surface-to-surface missile, and has stealth features. The FAC in question has a crew of 12 to 14 sailors, less than half that of similar craft. At a unit cost of an estimated $50 million each, a Navy with limited resources could afford both the financial and manpower commitment.


Admiral Noman Bashir, who has brought several innovations in Pakistan, addressed the ceremony marking the launching of FAC-M.

Custodial Killing of a Human being is an act of Terrorism

SRINAGAR: A prominent pro-independence leader in Indian Kashmir on Saturday condemned the killing of Moamer Qaddafi, saying the fallen Libyan dictator had been a “friend” and supporter of Kashmiris. “In his death, the people of Kashmir have lost their friend,” Yasin Malik, chairman of the Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF), said in a statement. A marathon United Nations diatribe by Qaddafi in September 2009 annoyed India but won him an enthusiastic fan base in Indian-administered Kashmir. Qaddafi berated Western powers for an hour and 35 minutes from the General Assembly podium in a speech covering issues as diverse as John F. Kennedy’s assassination, swine flu and his support for Kashmiri independence. “Kashmir should be an independent state, not Indian, not Pakistani. We should end this conflict,” Qaddafi told the UN assembly. His remarks were splashed across the front pages of Kashmir’s leading dailies, as the region’s separatist leaders applauded. Malik’s JKLF wan...
