The true Indian Jugaad.

Arihant is an Akula class sub as told by even the last Russian Ambassador to India. It has all the abilities to chase, hunt and also launch nukes.

Nirbhay missile test failed last time which was supposed to be a 1000 km missile with nuke ability and just 520mm radius. A missile tube with 2.6m will accomodate four of them easily. Does it ring something in you guys?

I have very clearly stated that Arihant is Indian Juggad of SSGN+SSBN+SSN. Hope you you remember it. In India we use a tractor trolley for transporting agricultural goods, for transporting building material like a truck and also for transporting people like a Bus.

same Klub missile as Kilo class subs.

I have serious doubts over this speed. The last Russian ambassador in India had described Arihant to be Akula-2 class sub in tech and abilities plus a bit more. Most of the times the true top speed of subs is never told correctly for unknown reasons. I wud consider the speed to be about 28-30...

Its a new class, yet to be named. As I told you that it will be twice the size of Arihant. I believe that construction is on for these subs but where and when it started is anybodies guess. I DO/NOT KNOW.

You guys have been completely fooled by what ever is being written in newspapers. The real SSBN for IN will be the follow on designs which will be twice the size of Arihant and construction go ahead has already been given for them way back in 2009. Arihant will the attack sub (SSN) of IN with...

Unlike ships, Subs have two weights, surfaced and dived. The wt quoted by you is submerged displacement. similarly, unlike ships, subs have two diff top speeds, surface and dived. Most SSN have the distinctive towed array sonar on its tail. Pls have carefull look at Arihant. It too has one such...

We Indians are masters of Jugaad. One sub many roles is all I wud say. It is a mix of SSBN+SSGN+SSN.

India has been operating subs for nearly 50 yrs now. we have also been operating HDWs and Kilo class for over two decades. Russians even today have the best sub tech in the world and they are the people who assisted India in making this sub. Be assured that some of the best tech has gone into...

Arihant is in same class as Akula-2 in being silent at sea. But better in tech and sensors.

Chinese conventional subs have that kind of range to get into BOB for a few days only. Searching a sub in open oceans is like searching for a needle in hay stack. However they all have some choke points from which they have to enter or exit a particuler area. For Russian subs to get into...

Chinese subs had been operating in BOB even during 1971 war with Pak.

God save this nation, if the PMO of the nation can do such blunders, what will happen to the nation.

We have made significant progress in sonar tech and we produce some of the best ones in India. The Arihant class has Indian Sonar of the same class as mentioned by you.

I agree to some extent with your POV. We have a saying in Haryana,"Khayeh dhaishare, haggay paanch share",. I.E eat 2.5kgs and shit 5 kgs. Yes this is done to scare the enemy also as a way of deciet and camouflage.

Somebody is extremely keen to know how far are we w.r.t other subs and they have been keeping tabs. Each of these circles have a fixed length so based on the numbers built, you can make out how far down we are with construction of the sub hull.

I did not want to say it in so many words so used,"Quadrapule anechoic tiles" as lining for the sub to suppress its noise signature.

It always takes time to operationalise the first ship of a new design. In case of Arihant, it is a whole new weapon system and completely new tech which is being inducted. The lessons learnt from it will be applied to the followon of this class and their induction will be much faster. IN has...
