Next, if Ninda Turtle shows up in Vizag, it should send a shiver down PN/PLAN's spine, because it would indicate many things:
- That India's naval posture is offensive in the IOR
- That India is actively hunting for Chinese and Pakistani subs
- That India has deployed SSBNs (plural) in China's backyard to sharpen its second-strike capability
- That Indian Navy is an active component of whatever surprise the US Navy is planning for China
- That Indian Navy is sending a gentle reminder to all countries in the region that have economic engagement with China on ports (i.e. Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Myanmar), to keep their engagement "civilian"
- That nobody will come to Karachi's rescue if Pakistanis get any ideas during India's military engagement against China in Ladakh
