Royal Malaysian Navy LMS Batch 2 Corvette at DSA 2024

During the DSA 2024, the Royal Malaysian Navy showcased a scale model of STM's Ada-class corvette as the Littoral Mission Ship - LMS Batch 2. Naval News' Xavier Vavasseur and Tayfun Ozberk discusses the Turkish corvette's Malaysian configuration .
Based the model of the MİLGEM corvette showcased at the Malaysian Navy's booth, the dimensions of the corvette for Malaysia seem the same as the Turkish counterpart. While there are some configuration adjustments, the design appears to adhere closely to the proven Ada-class corvette blueprint.
Notably, the primary difference in the LMS Batch 2 Corvette lies in its integration of air defence missiles. Plans entail outfitting the ship with air defense missiles, housed in 2x2-cell Vertical Launch Systems (VLSs) situated in the aft mast area of the vessel. Information gathered by Naval News at the exhibition indicates that the selected air defence missile for LMS Batch 2 is the Haegung (which means "Sea Bow", or Korean Surface-to-Anti Air Missile (K-SAAM), manufactured by the South Korean company Lig NEX1. With these missiles arranged in a quad-pack configuration, a total of 16 Haegung Surface-to-Air Missiles (SAAMs) will be onboard.

Im a big fan of naval news, ada class has a great design very stealthy

[@namazlur78]

Oh please STM don't built in boustead shipyard. A big NO!! They're already full with the LCS & backlog. Built it in Istanbul shipyard!! That's interesting to know that the RMN chose the CENK radar over the Smart S. I guess it is better? Which type of south korean sam they choose? Ksam or Msam?

[@mimimimeow]

It's likely because it's just cheaper. K-SAAM.

[@omarmahadi8219]

they build in Turkey all of them

[@stunick1573]

Love the sleeker modern design, and the South Korean missiles are a good choice in a market of good choices. Only thing left is to get the Norwegian RBS system missiles for ssm sea skimming missiles and Malaysia will make people sit up in the Indo Pacific region.

Ukraine must consider selling its Ada class ships to Malaysia. Two ready to sail platforms. Those two ship can't join to Blacksea anyway due to Montreux Convention 1936.

[@Ellyna7.62x39]

Yeah ,,, they would willing to trade with cash or some russia made jet or weapon ..they have thousand of russia anti tank,mandps and Missile and also Mig29 that has been retired by them

[@muhammadadambinmohdrazihan9988]

The Ukrainian can still have it because the Montreux Convention stated the warship cannot pass the Dardanelles strait unless returning to base

[@sktt1488]

They CAN

[@mustafrickadoodle7872]

Bad idea to have the ships built locally, as we have learned from the LCS fiasco, our local shipyards cannot be trusted with handling strategic assets, better to built all of them overseas for now. We should only consider building these ships locally once 5 or so vessels have been aqcuired from Turkey, our naval force has been severely degraded due to the delays of the LCS, never let it happen again.

This is a dumb comment coming from a guy who probably isn't conversant in shipbuilding news. Do you know there are yards there in Malaysia building seagoing ships for foreign navies? This is not a hoax, as UAE has to date commissioned 5 warships including LSTs and training vessels from Shin Yang of Miri, Sarawak. Do you see the dumbness of getting Lunas idiots to build warships besmirching the reputation of the shipbuilding industry in Malaysia? The idiots are there, in Lumut ... not in Sabah or Sarawak shipyards!

@@SyafieHanifah nope. for money everyone will do anything. just bribe for contract so the ship will be built in Malaysia and BOOM!! EZ money

[@ViolentCabbage-ym7ko]

@@SyafieHanifah For overseas procurement is difficult to take bribe because the amount will be stated. If the ADA class ships that Malaysia buys is more expensive than Pakistan or Ukraine ADA class ships, people will ask why it cost more for Malaysia. It's different if we build it ourselves because they can misuse the money first and them claim they have trouble later and need more funds
