Venezuela????The three new designs: MS200, S600 and S1100 form a new family of submarines to address a range of operational needs and submarine sizes of potential customers. Except for the midget submarine (MS200), CSIC now offers a range of Air Independent Propulsion (AIP) SSKs. According to a corporate video of the Chinese group, several countries have already shown interest in their submarine designs, including Algeria, Cuba, Egypt, Libya, Burma, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Venezuela.View attachment 21582 View attachment 21583 View attachment 21584 View attachment 21585
China will have to put most of its offensive naval ships near its coast.View attachment 15386 CV001, the first indigenous Chinese aircraft carrier of PLAN launched. Took just 5 years and 3 months for completion. Already one in service , two more are coming. In 2023-24 , when INS Vikrant would be commissioned in Indian Navy, China will have three aircraft carriers already in active service and one under construction. India still then will have two aircraft carriers in active service and possibly only one under construction. The question here isn't only Indian Navy gradually being outnumbered hugely by PLAN , but also the high speed China is doing so. What should be India's approach to counter this?
How much do you think we need????Well if everything goes well...we will have
6 Kalvari Class under P-75
3-6 Super Scorpene additional
6 Super Scorpene under P-75I
3-6 Indigenous SSK
11 Nuclear sub + 2 nuclear from Russia
So , 24 minimum and can be as high as 37 (still less than need)
By that metric INS Vikrant is also ready. We too have installed AESA arrays.#Update
Installation of flat array AESA radars aboard Type 002 aircraft carrier. Sea trial to begin very soon. View attachment 21588
8 diesel electric + 4 old ones. We will have 225+ nuke and all. no comparison.Don't know bhai what's going on Vikrant.
And Aditya, even Pakistan will have 12+ subs.
I guess our total fleet should be at least 45
What is Super Scorpene???Well if everything goes well...we will have
6 Kalvari Class under P-75
3-6 Super Scorpene additional
6 Super Scorpene under P-75I
3-6 Indigenous SSK
11 Nuclear sub + 2 nuclear from Russia

US does not have any territorial claims against India. US isn't opposing India's entry into NSG. US isn't protecting Pakistani terrorists like masood aszhar from being blacklisted. US isn't building a road through disputed territory which India claims. China is doing all of these things. You keep saying that US wants there to be a rivalry, but who is causing China to provoke this rivalry?Both are BRIC. Why India fixated on china as rival. Is it the 62 war? Is it because China is Pakistan ally? US has been in India ocean for long time and has base there, regularly has navy drill and passing through etc. I remembered US was on Pakistan side during 71 war. I'm sure from US point of view it prefer India counter China while US sit on sideline and get rid of both potential rivals. This is just like how US cozy up to China during Cold War to counter USSR. I'm sure top India officials understand this. Which bugle me as to why India treat china as rival but not US
Do they have something to counter Mach 3 AShM?View attachment 21933
