Sahiwal Gunboat launched in Karachi
The launching ceremony of the Pakistan Navy’s latest gunboat, PNS Sahiwal, was held on Thursday at Karachi Shipyard & Engineering Works (KS&EW).
The vessel, currently under construction, has been indigenously designed by the Platform Design Wing (PDW) of the Pakistan Navy, according to a press release issued by the Directorate General Public Relations (Pakistan Navy).
Equipped with high-performance, long-range semi-automatic guns, the state-of-the-art gunboat is expected to significantly enhance the Navy’s operational capabilities in a range of maritime security missions.
Vice Chief of the Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Ovais Ahmed Bilgrami, attended the ceremony as chief guest. In his address, he praised the collaborative efforts between PDW and KS&EW, calling the project a key milestone in advancing the Pakistan Navy’s policy of self-reliance and indigenization.
He also thanked the Ministry of Defence Production (MoDP) for its ongoing support to the shipyard and emphasized that the new vessel would be capable of executing a wide spectrum of maritime security tasks.
Vice Admiral Bilgrami further revealed that the Navy is considering additional gunboat production, which would not only reinforce operational capacity but also contribute to the growth and modernization of KS&EW.
The ceremony was attended by senior naval officers, officials from the MoDP, KS&EW, and representatives from the national shipbuilding sector.
