The ship will be powered by a Combined Diesel and Gas turbine (CODAG) system, consisting of two Rolls-Royce MT30 gas turbines and four MAN 2MW diesel engines, giving them a top speed of 35 knots (65 km/h, 40 mph) and a range of 2,800 nautical miles (5,200 km, 3,200 mi) at 25 knots (46 km/h, 29 mph) or 1,000 nautical miles (1,900 km, 1,200 mi) at 35 knots (65 km/h, 40 mph). The ships will have an endurance of 10 days at maximum speed.

The warship will be equipped with various sensors and processing systems, including a 3Ts-25E Garpun-B surface search radar and an EL/M-2248 MF-STAR S-Band AESA radar, as well as a chaff decoy system for electronic warfare.

The warship will be equipped with an OTO Melara 76 mm Super Rapid Gun Mount (SRGM), two AK-630M close-in weapon systems (CIWS), 32 VL-SRSAM missiles, 8 VLS launched BrahMos missiles, and a very short-range air defense system (VSHORAD).
