India’s to begin testing its Second gen SSBN

Just don't post conspiracy theories here yo.

LOL? What I just did read? US & Russia not having old "relative" edges on military capabilities is not a thinking, it can be supported by annual military induction and production stats.

I hate that though, things should end on reasoning.

You will agree with me if you have ever worked in heavy engineering/nuclear engineering/aerospace industry etc.. Technological edge has to be sustained by continuous industrial involvement. When after a cold war, you discontinue projects and shutdown factories and repurpose your space agency...

No, NASA and ESA have enough earth flybys, Venus and Solar orbiters, added with deep communication network to detect the explosion. That would need an earth flyby and orbital maneuvers and it is not sensible to keep a nuke on a complex spacecraft. Such a costly mission would be about hiding...

Idea is not being entertained by any government, nor because of feasibility but because of its uselessness. No country will gain anything by bursting a bomb on lunar surface for fun. A nuke won't necessarily require a soft landing. It's ignition would happen immediately after touching surface...

As I have pre-empted that already, India can't do nuclear tests nuclear tests at this stage but it's tech capability is still enough to produce havoc bringing nukes. Mass testing might begin when India becomes a politically, economically and militarily far powerful force today than it is now...

This has more to do with utility. Off course there is no use of vapourising a part of land to a higher depth. Destruction is absolute in a constant area regardless of blast yield of weapon (if yield exceeds 20kT). So in case of wartime use, hydrogen bombs of 200-300 kT with high radius of damage...

So, what made you assume that a submarine of size of Arihant can pick 10-12 heavy ICBMs with 10 MIRVs each? That doesn't make sense. Not in case of India which tested a scaled down version of 250 kT bomb in 1998 itself. Tests have been being simulated through supercomputers for long, improving...

Not related to our discussion which is about future submarine strength. Still replying, having 7 SSBN confirms having 50-70 naval nuclear warheads alone, apart from silo based MRBM/IRBM/ICBM based nukes + stored for lifting through bombers which pegs the deployable strength of Indian nuclear...

Consider retiring all old submarines, 4 nos S4 & S4* (Arihant) class SSBN 3 nos S5 class SSBN Total 7 nuclear ballistic missile submarines. 6 nos P75 (Kalvari) class SSK 6 nos P75I class SSK 6 nos P76 class SSK 6 nos P75A class SSN Total 24 attack submarines. Hence a force of 31 submarines...

Besides submarines being constructed, there are sanctioned plans of at least 18 attack submarines for India. 12 nos SSK (P75I & P76) and 6 nos SSN (P75A). Given that Indian navy is running well below the official requirement of 24-30 submarines and many more are going to be retired, more & more...

Pending But "did India sign a deal for such systems" looks unclear. India produces this system as well. So question should be clear about Russian deal.

Which system?

Still not anti Indian. Low competence regarding aerospace capabilities of countries around world isn't equal to Indophobia. Even if they do it out of dislike of India, what's point of bringing it here? Nobody talks or cares about Turkey or most Arab states in India.

Even if India lands humans on Mars, why them? What you gonna get by achieving in front of these dudes? They might have quit this forum stopped taking interest, died, migrated elsewhere, overthrow their government or anything. Don't you have a job dude?

No They just are not anti Indian. Don't tell me who just doesn't agree with India is anti Indian.

Where is anti Indian content here? There's nothing Indo phobic in comments but general prejudices of world on China and India, added with in general delusions of nationalities like case of Turkey here. No ethnic/racist/cultural attack. No useless insults. I will call it fine. These Abduls...

Government communication represents reality. It doesn't matter if a 15 years old Abdul from Dhaka, online reading hadiths on ghazwat-ul-Hind, declares that Bangladesh will invade India. We post these things on DFI only for fun. Nobody ever took them seriously.
