We are not going to have more than 6 SSBN that will be the max S2,S3,S4,S4+ and two S5 no way we are going to have 8 SSBN we may have 8 SSN by 2035 provided everything goes smooth like now and any trouble to economy and the return of kichdi govt forget all these we will have to stick with 4 SSBN and 2 SSN only ..So BJP winning or even Congress winning as single party with few coalition parties will be better rather having a rainbow coalition for our defence modernisation plans ..
Somewhere i feel we put ourselves into sticky situation with this Makeinindia drama too much we could have skipped few crucial projects out of it and started giving orders ..Like Japan has very large capacity shipbuilding industry we could have gone for Soryu class subs with production in Japanese shipyards which could have saved us time and deliver at crucial juncture ..Rather putting stress on our limited shipyards with mediocre resources ..
4 - Arihant (2 Completed, 2 U/C)
3 - S5 (Planned)
6 - SSN (Planned)
1 - Akula (Russia Lease)

This import lobby was started by Congressi MC to fill their pocket. No self respecting country imports military equipment from elsewhere. If MDL falls silent after Scorpene, entire skilled labour will go to Middle East and produce ships for our enemies. That bastard Anthony did more damage to India in 10 years than China did in 50.

If Congress wins, we are fucked even with coalition govt. These fuckers will sell country to China and split up our country like the British did. Screw them, BJP all the way!

Rahul Gandhi popat as PM..............:shock:

I don't understand the rationale behind this purchase. In case of a Indo-Pak conflict, larger the surface vessel more attention it will recieve. So not only will these frigates fail to do their jobs like patrolling the SLOCs or escorting the merchant vessels, they will find themselves at the bottom of the sea pretty early in the conflict.


Upgraded F-22P would have cost half of this and two more subs instead of this would have been far more survivable and a bigger nuisance to IN.

Type 054A has HQ 16 missile with 48 - 50 km range. This will allow it to at least threaten Mig 29Ks , Su 30 MKI and possible F/A 18 SH aircraft that may attack Pakistani convoys from A/C or land bases. Also they have built a decent force of missile boats and small craft which can use larger radar (250 km Fregat - M radar Chinese Copy) of the frigate to use over the horizon targeting of ships.

Having said that Pakis are shit scared of Brahmos because a single hit will either destroy or write off the vessel and thus they are paying for FL 3000N based SAM for terminal stage interception. But FL 3000N has just 6km against a supersonic missile (read Mach 2). Thus they are fucked literally.

I dont think bjp government ordered any new naval platforms in last 4 year.Heck they r not ready to place even additional 3 scorpene subs order. Torpedoes, ASW helicopter, naval utility helicopters deals continue to in cold storage. Bjp or other government nothing Will change in indian defence sector. We hav shortage in both money and technology.

Pakis have been signing a lot deals but don't have any money to pay for it. China may give something in return for gwadar but I can't see turkey give anything for free. They will need cash and any US or Euro tech will not be provided.

By that time India will have 70-80 guided Missiles ships

Come on these type 54A have no chance against combo of Visakhapatnam class destroyers + shivalik new generation + Talwar class Figrates along with whole CBG

The real Threat comes from 11 AIP subs
We need more SSK and scorpene to counter it

Naval dockyards are jam packed with orders and can't take extra capacity. Private shipyards have no capability. If your beloved Congress comes to power, we are truly fucked.

And its false to say no new orders have been placed. The Missile range instrument ship, 6 NGMVs and 12 ASW corvettes were ordered by this govt. Tenders are ongoing for Amphibious Assault Ships, Next gen replenishment ships,, DSAR submarine rescue ships, DSVs, 6 OPVs.
Not to mention the four talwar class follow ons from Russia.

Yeah me neither. Some people are just so dedicated, if you know what I mean.
He's SELVAM who was banned multiple times. They are basically PDF Indian liberal stock who care only about their 'yuppie' agenda.

purchase is not the right word. soft loans which will never be paid
They being bankrolled by China as a flanking navy to harass sea lanes when India blockades Malacca Straits during confrontation with China. However they are shit scared knowing that even then India has overwhelming superiority.

There isn't anything China has that can stop Brahmos, but Porkis drink the Kool-Aid thinking HQ-16 can do the job. If it did the purchase would make sense but at this point they are using Chinese financing to pay their euro debts. How they will pay back China is a mystery.

Is this going to come with HQ-16 SAM?
It can be shot down from Brahmos shot 500+ Km away from MKI. HQ 16 is a Chinese junk and can not do anything. This is a good purchase for India as Pakistani Hard earned money will go into Chinese junk. Like 2 warships purchased by Pakistan some years ago from china is causing maintenance nightmare for Pak navy, this two shall not be different. Had Pakistan had bought french subs, it would have been a cause of concern for India but fortunately , they went for Chinese stuff.

I don't think that is the case. Pakistan Navy was the biggest loser in 1971, lost half of their fleet and then some. If anyone truly knows how lethal AShM can be, it's the PN.

There is no way in hell Pakis believe their cheap Shtil copy will be effective against Brahmos. It's something else.

It may be Chini masters want Pakis to save Gwadar as long as possible in a conflict.
