Chief of naval staff Admiral Noman Bashir said that the first ship, PNS Zulfiquar, had already been inducted and that the navy would receive the third ship of the F-22 P frigate project by the end of 2010, according to The Frontier Post.
The fourth F-22 P frigate is currently under construction at Karachi Shipyard in collaboration with Hudong Zhonghua Shipyard of China.
PNS Shamsheer is a multipurpose ship with robust, reliable and modern weapons and sensors.
The ship has the ability to fight in a multithreat environment with air defence missiles and close-in weapon systems while engaging multiple targets simultaneously with long-range weapons.
In addition, Shamsheer has an advance anti-submarine warfare capability and the capability of integrated helicopter operations.
The frigate programme contract was signed in April 2005 between the Pakistani Navy and China Shipbuilding and Trading Company.
