This needs a little Needs correction, PMSA has two 1500 Ton corvettes, the Kashmir class, not Dasht. They also do not have Type 056 corvettes, they have smaller 400 Ton OPVs.

2x 1500 ton corvettes, 2x 600 ton OPVs/FACs, 2x 615 Ton OPVs, 4x 400 Ton OPVs, 2x 155 ton cutters.

@iLION12345_1 Are this weapons just Monuments- exhibition or is the purpose to show the intuition for installing them on the Kashmir class.
The Kashmir class was designed with the capability to carry Proper AShMs and other weaponry. The mounts are already present and wired. It’s quite a large vessel after all (1500 tons).

They can’t equip it during peacetime as then the ship is declared a warship legally, However during a war it would be transferred to the navy and used as a proper corvette, it has the radars and other subsystems as well as a helipad and a hanger.
