He died the same day, the others were taken to hospital so there was nothing to release at the time.

It was a steam pipe explosion from the boilers. 9 other people were injured either being burnt from boiling water or inhaling fumes from the fire afterwards. It is not unreasonable to assume that some of the injured succumbed to their injuries but the Navy isn't going to release it until the...

INS Vikramaditya fire: Navy says aircraft carrier will participate in ‘Varuna’ exercise, Karwar base contradicts INS Vikramaditya was returning to its base in Karwar to take part in the joint exercise with France slated from May 1-6 off Karwar and Goa coasts, when the fire took place in it...

So the fire was in the engine room...

CdG could do it, the Rafale F3R is superior to the Hornet.

The Harriers were planned to be retired in 2014. The only way to keep them operational longer would have required a purchase of spares from the RN, but the USMC bought them all.

The only technologies I am concerned with here are the reliability of her propulsion. We all know the history and it was a problem even last year. Vikrant has Italian engines so I am not so concerned about her.

What Russian reprisal? Russians were the ones begging us not to attack and take their WMD away. That is what we are doing. I think India can build its own stealth ships. Russia provided much for Arihant design... because you paid for it. Similar to how we are providing much for Brasil's...

That treaty died along with the USSR as well as participation in defence of India. If China crossed the LOC, Russia would do no more than wag a finger. Your own fault... None of which were built in India... suprise! :shocked: Let us remember this aircraft carriers checkered history. Made...

The difference between BAE and DCNS costs are two different balls of wax. Not to mention we don't build, redesign midstream and then go back to the original design of our carriers.

That was your area of concentration, I do hope you listen monsieur moderator. She has been refitted with many marine systems from Italy. It is a modern warship by any measure including digital authority.

Russia doesn't offer any diplomatic or military leverage. You have no alliance with Russia, a nation that sells its latest military hardware to your biggest enemy. France has the same international clout as Russia if not greater. As a member of the IOR community and hegemon of Africa, India...

Two Indians nabbed with gold in rectum

Dude, Russia helps you because you pay out of the a$$ for it. Russia sells their grandmother to China when they could walk over the border. India doesn't owe Russia anything except a spit on the boot for the lies and corruption associated with Gorshkov. If you gave France 70% market share of...

India is taking a big gamble investing a third of the navy budget on one ship with such a checkered past. If it ends up like admiral K it will spend 90% of its life at dock.

J-7 was obsolete the day China got it. Scorpene is being built at MDL with Pipavav cleared as an alternate site for P75I. This should be the epicentre of submarine production. As far as potential, yes India has plenty of potential... but one must make contingency plans as often the case...

No producer gives enough ToT to make a marketable product without their authorisation. What China attempted with Russian aircrafts is still a fail, they must have Russian engines and radar to make it work and that can be deauthorised by Russia at anytime. You don't see J-11s being sold...

This is already being done with Scorpene in Brasil. Since India already paid the money for production, it would be cheapest to make yours nuclear. Collaboration with Brasil in this regard would also strengthen ties between two important BRICs.

I have seen it used in 3D modelling so I assume they plan on parking aircraft there. It is one of only a few places out of the way to do so.
