I've been interesting Homemade Frigate of Myanmar Navy and Next Generation Multipurpose Stealth Frigate. Since 1996 many warships were built locally by Myanmar Naval Dockyard with Chinese assistance. Including Corvette and Fast attack craft i think = 27 ships or more. I'm plan to drawing the ships in this list, if the names was duplicate in your worklist please tell me.
- F11 Aung Zeya (Aung Zeya Class Frigate)
- F12 Kyansittha (Kyan Sittha Class Frigate)
- F14 Sinbyushin (Kyan Sittha Class Frigate)
- Myanmar Navy's Next Generation Multipurpose StealthFrigate
- Anawrahta Class Corvettes
- A 79 m Stealth Corvette concept
- A 49 m Stealth FAC Missile
- 5-Series class Batch I FAC Gun
- 5-Series class Batch II FAC Missile
- 5-Series class Batch III FAC Missile
- and T201 New Homemade Torpedo Boat (wow
)
Other ships of Myanmar Navy
- Jianghu-II Class Type 053H1 (already drawn by Gollevainen)
- Houxin class FAC Missile
- Hainan class submarine chaser (already drawn by Jabba)
- Admirable class minesweeper
This project will slow because i have little database and some ships still work in progress. I don't know many Chinese and Russian weapons so i need your help.
Myanmar Navy
Anawrahta Class Corvettes
Myanmar's military leaders had long wanted to acquire two or three frigates to replace the country's obsolete PCE-827 and Admirable-class corvettes, decommissioned in 1994, and its two 1960s-vintage Nawarat-class corvettes, which have been gradually phased out since 1989. As military ties with China rapidly grew during the 1990s, the SLORC hoped to buy two or three Jiangnan- or even Jianghu-class frigates, but it could not afford even the special 'friendship' prices being asked by Beijing. As a compromise, Myanmar purchased three Chinese hulls, and in 2000 began to fit them out as corvettes in Yangon's Sinmalaik shipyard. Despite a European Community embargo against arms sales to Myanmar, the ships' main guns were imported (apparently through a third party) from Italy. Jane's described Israel's main role in "fitting out the three corvettes is apparently to provide their electronics suites." The United States did not impose trade sanctions until 2003.
Near the end of the 1990s, the Sinmalaik Shipyard located in Rangoon managed to build a 77m long and 1105t(1450t full) displacement warship - a corvette that gave the Myanmar Navy for the first time a helicopter deck-equipped vessel and an overall ship design that looked poised to take the fleet beyond the territorial waters into the country’s EEZ. Initially designated the Sinmalaik class, by virtue of its shipbuilder, the corvette was actually a larger hull equipped with a helicopter deck but no hangar facilities but the remaining combat systems did not represent a significant leap beyond what the Myanmar Navy already possessed in its inventory. Later designated the Anawrahta class
