If we can get this one by 2020 it would be great for IN. They should have 2 Akulas and 4 Arihant class in service along with 6 Scorpene and a few Kilos.

I read about it this past week. I actually think it's a smart idea to lease it instead of buying it because many of Indian defense weapons are set to be operational by 2020. Although I don't know how much that validates to.

Anyway, India needs to improvise on self defense manufacturing. Outside sources of military goods are overpriced, expensive for us and have a lack of technical approach.
