[satish007]

Sorry, I didn't realise that you are playing yourself as a clown.

hmm, this time you are smart enough.
don't mess with me anymore.
again, China will not have any aircraft carrier.

There are many Chinese who know Hindi.

That is China's plan to inflitrate the Indian society.

agree the first part, some chinese guys in this forum know almost nothing but mocking.

Some Chinese have a fear of being enveloped by their sense of profound insecurity that they have still not bought up the world!

They should buy USS Kitty Hawk and make a few copies.

LOL
You think we are fools to not accept Kitty Hawk, that too for free. No such offer was ever made. And Kitty Hawk will not be sold to anyone as long as Nimitz class operates in the USN[2058] and even beyond. Their hull has some vivid similarities or something.

Kitty hawk was offered, India rejected as it Vikramaditya was 80% finished, Besides

1. US stuff comes with majority of US equipment including aircraft.

2. Cost of rebuilding entire ship ( Super carrier )..

3. It would effect Indian IAC projects..

A US newspaper has reported on its website that Gates is carrying a letter from President George W. Bush offering to give the aircraft carrier USS Kitty Hawk to India, along with 65 F/A-18E/F Superhornet aircraft that may be based on it.

Indian defence ministry sources officially declined to comment on such an offer.

But India's navy chief, Admiral Sureesh Mehta, said in December that India was not interested in the Kitty Hawk right now because, in his words, "it is too old".

There have been other commentators, however, who find merit in an offer of the USS Kitty Hawk to India. A defence ministry official was ambiguous when asked if a formal offer of the ship was made and said there was "some talk" of it about two years back.

Highly unlikely.

NEW DELHI: The aircraft carrier USS Kitty Hawk is not up for sale to the Indian Navy as it has already "outstretched" its life, a senior US Navy officer said Wednesday.
"The ship was meant to last 48 years. It is in Wilmington (North Carolina) and not for sale. There is no intention to sell it. It has already outstretched its intended service life," Rear Admiral Allen G. Myers, the Director (Warfare Integration) of the US Navy, told IANS.

I wonder what Chinese will copy with the Carrier, they already researched on the Russian Virag. Hope it is not a copy of any Russian design for once.

 

[p2prada]

That Kitty Hawk news was fake.

We will be lucky if we are offered the Elizabeth class carrier, let alone a 90000 ton carrier.

But it will be beyond IN's budget, so no point.
