Guys, anyone wants to shed light on the "alternate chains of command" mentioned on our nuclear doctrine? Furthermore the doctrine says that the Political council of the Nuclear Command Authority is the sole authority for nuclear weapons. What if - council agrees to nuke, PM disagrees. What...

Any source to support this silo claim?

I like and totally support the concept that MAD with the US should be our ultimate goal. However, to achieve that, the delivery systems need to be deathproof. China has already built networked silos. What have we done?

Although I like the number I am skeptical that we are resourceful enough to amass 2000 warheads.

Agree. But there's a caveat. Larger arsenals do not actually deter anymore than reliable delivery systems do. The more reliable and deathproof our delivery systems are, the more feared and respected we will be.

Even if it is not alright with them, what leverage do you think they'll have on Bharat if they couldn't stop NoKo from obtaining the bomb.

This isn't my logic. Neither does it mean it won't work.

A foolproof testing of a thermonuclear bomb has to be done, sometime in the future. Without this, the dream of Surya ICBM (Agni 6) is incomplete.

Work ongoing. As per scarce reports available online, all population cleared, fences built. After that, complete dark. No more news trickles through. But it is a matter of fact that India was at the time 5-6 years ago, looking for a nuclear CnC center.

Perhaps they would be good for anti-ship as well. Yet to hear about thermobaric artillery shells, but would be great if we have them.

I have just one question about Thermobaric bombs of tactical nuke scale, Can they be put atop missiles? MOAB and FOAB are very heavy and are air-dropped.

The numbers that you've presented are convincing. It is said that numbers do not lie. In all probability, you are more correct than wrong. Please write something about your thoughts on the supposed Surya programme too.
