Aren't the Mig 29s built for STOBAR and not for CATOBAR?

Heard the babe is back inside the dry dock already.

Yep even the ship's bow and ramp arent complete and nor is the Hull.

But reports of high levels of radiation have emerged many times.

Niteshji...CDG catapults are from US. only the Arrestor gear is French.

Yes I agree with you 2 reactors might be needed to power a 60k tonne AC. The CDG uses 2 61 MW reactors to power itself.

niteshji, We already have a prototype miniaturized PHWR built for Arihant. It supplies 80MWs Why cant we develop a design based on it for our own IAC 2. We have enough time in our hands. http://www.naval-technology.com/projects/gaulle/ So I rather suggest our own reactor to be...

I am totally against the CDG reactor on the IAC...you must be kidding me! The French have suffered a lot and are still suffering with the reactor issues. And the steam catpults are American. I rather stick with their EMALS.

Well I think the Vikrant class will have 2 ships. But the second one might have a CATOBAR to it.

I think this is IAC...

Well I still doubt that. We launch ships on time but induction always takes time. I dont know why.

Try reading the problems faced by the French in Charles de Gaulle class carriers. They adopted their submarine reactor and ended up facing a lot of problems.

Well 6 AC is mammoth and I think it aint happening. Maximum will be 4...Three at sea and one at the refit.

..:: India Strategic ::.. Indian Navy's Aircraft Carriers

There are plans to induct around64 ships by the year of 2022,of which 32 are already in the docks and construction is going on. The combatant ships numbers are also in the increase. Yes there are plans for making the 60k tonne carrier nuclear,hope they dont do the same mistake like the...

We are actually planning to have 3 more ACs 2 Vikrant class, one Baku class and one will be in the 60k tonnage for which the design has started. :sporty55::sporty55:

Isnt IAC supposed to carry 30 aircrafts? Can anyone confirm this for me?

I hope all the other support ships and the fleet is readied in time either by indigenous ships or procured ones.

Sir I dont think The Su 30MKI has any wet hard points and is dependent only on internal fuel and IFR. More knowledgeable persons can shed some light on this. Then what AShM will the MIG 29 field?
