The 76/62 and the Exocet box does not looks like the latest part. Otherwise, nice boat!

Type of exocet launchers i used from older 10514 type sigma's because they are not shown on the impression.
The 76 mm is the newest for so far i know, but i have 6 diferent variants of the that gun so could be wrong.

I just drew what i could see/recognize from the impression.


The impression released today

Very nice work. Yeah, I would have thought they would have at least chosen the stealth copula for the 76/62 for such an advanced design, but I know navies don't always do that since they can take an existing 76/62 off an older ship and put it on the newer one. Notably, Germany's new Braunschweig class corvettes and South Africa's Valour class frigates, both of which are fairly advanced, stealthy designs, use the older round copula on their 76/62s.

Yes alot of nations go with old frame , i would go with stealth or even DART aswell but he im not indonesia. The dutch also use standard 76 mm's for theire patrol ships, because its alot cheaper to re-use older models then buying brand new ones. atleast im very happy the go wit Milenium gun instead of bofors ASW mortars much more advanced weapon then that old mortar.

the CIWS location seems a bit limited though

CIWS is a secondary function, it's also capable of engaging surface targets.

Yeah i'm aware of that but wouldn't it make more sense to have it anywhere read of the funnels instead of so close to the relatively similar in function 76mm (this includes combating surface targets

I don't know, ask the guys who actually designed it. Obviously, CIWS wasn't that much of a priority for them. But people who design warships for a living, especially for a foreign client, don't do things because they "feel like it."

Few mistakes in your drawing
