  "textContent": "ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Saturday inducted the cutting-edge corvette PNS Khaibar into the Pakistan Navy, underscoring efforts to modernise its fleet and reaffirming its resolve to protect the country’s sovereign seas and maritime frontiers.\n\nChief of the Naval Staff Admiral Naveed Ashraf said the addition of PNS Khaibar, the second Milgem-class corvette acquired under a long-term naval cooperation programme with Türkiye, marked a significant milestone in the force’s modernisation drive.\n\nThe platform, equipped with state-of-the-art systems and niche technologies, enhances the navy’s operational flexibility and combat capabilities, he added.\n\nhttps://twitter.com/Irves_Watch/status/2040370691107877232?s=20\n\nAddressing the induction ceremony, Admiral Ashraf extended best wishes to the crew and reaffirmed the navy’s commitment to safeguarding Pakistan’s maritime interests amid evolving regional security dynamics. He said advanced platforms like Khaibar and forthcoming Hangor-class submarines would strengthen the service’s ability to counter threats and protect sea lines of communication.\n\nThe induction comes as part of broader efforts to bolster naval readiness, following recent joint exercises with partner navies and ongoing enhancements to undersea and surface combat capabilities.\n\nPNS Khaibar was built by Turkish defence firm ASFAT under a contract for four Milgem-class corvettes, with two constructed in Türkiye and the remainder scheduled for delivery in coming years.\n\nThe commissioning of the warship reflects Pakistan’s focus on modernising its naval fleet amid heightened regional tensions and the need to secure strategic maritime routes.\n\nThe post Pakistan Navy inducts advanced warship PNS Khaibar appeared first on HUM News English.",
