Read again!! having both MF-STAR and this one in one ship does not make any sense!! Should have gone for naval version of green pine.

That is USS Ronald Reagan, not our IAC.

Anshu Attri , You always bring us good news!! Keep up the good work. What commercial work ? Why it is more important than our aircraft carrier ? If they are clearing the dock for second IAC means *drool*

Aircraft-carrier launch delayed by few weeks New Delhi, November 10 India's poor record in meeting deadlines of defence projects has now hit the prestigious sea-borne aircraft carrier which is under construction at the Defence Ministry-owned Cochin shipyard in Kerala. Despite a laid-down...

India's first IAC likely to be wet by the end of the year India's first indigenous aircraft carrier (IAC) is likely to be wet by the end of the year, according to sources. This will mark the culmination of the first phase of construction of the carrier, being built at the Cochin Shipyard Ltd...

Saya, What radars do you think they will fit in this carrier ? One naval version of swordfish and four MF-STAR ?

Lets say we ll have our first NLCA MK-2 by 2020, whats the point of inducting it if we can have fifth gen N-AMCA in 2023 ? I think instead of wasting money on NLCA MK-2 for just a squadron we should use N-MRCA in IAC-2 and AMCA in IAC-3. Talk about learning to build carrier borne aircraft we...

Its 3(shivalik)+7(P17A). P17A will be built in GRSE and MDL. 15B uses the same hull of Kolkata class, it only varies in superstructure. Agreed, But govt is not willing to give some orders to private shipyards. They will keep giving orders to MDL even it takes 10 years to finish a 7000 ton...

Destroyers, submarines(scorpene) and frigates are build in mazagon dock, Aircraft carriers are build in Cochin shipyard and corvettes are build in GRSE.

CSL is building IAC by modular techniques only. Instead of giving IAC to pipavav or L&T, IN should start with some destroyers or frigates.

Yes, that must be Viraat.

How come its in water ? It should be in dry dock. So i guess its not IAC.

IAC-2. But in seven years i am not sure we will finish it !!

Indian Aircraft Carrier construction on schedule: CSL In the latest report of Cochin Shipyard Limited, it mentions that the prestigious IAC project is proceeding on schedule with the company completing a large portion of hull block fabrication and erection in the building dock during 2009-10...

some reports says that they going to upgrade(modular shipbuilding) the cochin shipyard after the launch of IAC-1 so only after the upgrade they will start building IAC-2. no idea which one is true!

I think they will start building IAC-2 after the IAC-1 launch which is this year end or next year beginning.

Any reliable source to support your claim that initially IAC-1 and IAC-2 were of same displacement? what i heard was from the beginning itself navy planned to build the IAC-2 much bigger than IAC-1
