What @Haldilal said is unknown to me. Officially, even design and shipyard etc. haven't been finalised for P-18.
It's anyway impossible to hide a 13000 tonne super destroyer from satellites for long if it goes under construction covertly.

Ya’ll Nibbiars I never said the construction started but the design is probably already finished.

Ya'll Nibbiars did the Nilgiri Class original had two types of radar scopes?. A type and B type?.

And @aditya g Nibba, @Gessler Nibba, @Karthi Nibba, @Bleh Nibba.

dont know , i didn't seen any pictures of nilgiri except those in the time of launch were mast is not fitted/ visible . there are many renders with different masts which are even used by GRSE . SO we only know when we actually see the pics of Nilgiri

Ya'll Nibbiars because I heard that there were two type of radar A type and B type on the nilgiri. As metioned by arvions uncle who was a b type radar operator.

Enjoy the fresh look of INS Vikrant from 14 July.
Ready to head out for sea trial with fresh coat of surface paint.

INS Vikramaditya too getting a fresh deck coating as a part of it's refitting process, new image from first week of July shows. Looks like both ships will head out together (Wild guess).

Ya'll Nibbiars I will rephrase my question I heard that in the Original Nilgiri Class there were two types of Radar Scopes I.e. radar screens A type and B Type. And their working is different how I don't knew and the operator were trained according to that. As per as the Arvions kakaji who was a B Type radar operator.

I am unable to find any picture of this radar screen console.

 

[Haldilal]

Ya'll Nibbiars A type radar Screen.

The B type radar screen.

In vikky, there were previously missile there. Now they're not.
Isn't that space wasted? Can't we expand the hangar?

I believe it's the gym right in front of the Hangars, towards the stern of the ship, where it is empty(because not enough aircrafts) they even have a badminton and volleyball caourt

I think they can change layout a bit in floor of ship but increasing jet capacity isn't easy task

Navy to scrap plans to procure guns from US, considering 'Make in India' route now

The Navy’s original plan was to procure the 127 mm guns from the Italian firm Oto Melara, but the deal got stuck due to the VVIP chopper scam.

And What do we have in Make in India for that Segment ??? Its complete waste of time, Once this fails we go back to Issuing RFI again

Arde can do something , anyway why not use 100 mm artillery used in veer class or early talwar class frigates ?

No we should go for this ,all future ships require guns and thus is a logical step as of now

outdated, these are for the ships under contraction.. who knows in near future even 127mm will be out dated.
