It's been several years since I played with "Harpoon" and had a decent sense of world navies. My instinct is that the Indians have been moving right along, and that these frigates would be nice reef elements shortly after the beginning of any Indian-Paki conflict, if they weren't immediately sent as far west as possible (like, say, the Atlantic Ocean).
Anyone more up-to-date than me that would like to comment?

Im gonna guess that these frigates cant be too modern, otherwise China would keep them, to modernise their own navy.

I wonder if these frigates are made out of the same metal that the Chinese screwdriver I bought was made of. It looked sort of like aluminum but had the consistency of lead. If so, I advise them that a lead-aluminum alloy ship may work about as well as my lead-aluminum alloy screwdriver did.

I wouldn't be worried
The paki's leased a frigate that I used to serve on back in 1989.
Their "expert" naval personnel managed to sink the ship tied to the pier!
