For SAMs and AAMs, a dual pulse rocket motor means the powerplant fires again near the end of the engagement when the extra energy is useful for manoeuvring targets. Older missiles just have a single burn of the rocket.

For it's size, it should have more VLS like 24x or 32x VLS tubes like Singapore's Formidable class at 3200 tones

Yeah, but stealth is bound by the laws of physics restricting design possibilities

I should have removed the Kilo from that.
I can't help but feel that all these ships are built on the same hull or with the same superstructure plan today. It's just so boring. Aesthetically

Does the Hizar really have an 800km tow cable, or is that a typo?
