Karachi (HRNW): The first Hangor-class submarine built in China for the Pakistan Navy, “PNS/M Hangor,” was accorded a grand welcome upon its arrival in Karachi, marking a significant milestone in Pakistan’s naval modernization program.
According to official sources, the advanced submarine is equipped with state-of-the-art combat systems, modern sensors, sonar, and radar technologies. It also incorporates stealth capabilities, enabling it to operate undetected while conducting effective maritime missions.
Officials further stated that the submarine has the capability to carry long-range torpedoes and cruise missiles. One of its most notable features is its Air Independent Propulsion (AIP) system, which allows it to remain submerged for extended durations while carrying out operational missions.
Defense analysts suggest that the induction of this platform will significantly enhance Pakistan’s naval defense capabilities and strengthen its maritime security posture in the region.
The development is being seen as a major step toward strengthening technological advancement and operational readiness within the naval forces.
The Pakistan Navy has stated that the induction of modern platforms is part of ongoing efforts to further strengthen maritime defense capabilities and ensure effective protection of the country’s sea borders.
The arrival of the submarine is being regarded not only as a defense advancement but also as a symbol of growing maritime strength and technological progress.
