Indian Navy Developments & Discussions

[Aniruddha Mulay]

Hopefully the SSNs aren't too far away. I wonder if we have the capacity to build both the SSNs and the S5s at the same time.

SBC expansion is already underway, rather rapidly, once its complete SBC will have the ability to build 4 nuke subs simultaneously

IN is yet to sign the following deals:
1. FSS x5
2. NGMV x6
3. NGOPV x11
4. Brahmos Coastal Defence Battery x2
5. Additional Brahmos for current and future warships.

Indications are there that these programs will get the CCS clearance this month.

This is India's current fleet structure. It doesn't have to capability to deny another great power access to the IOR

No, at least in IOR, Indian Navy by far exceeds every great power in world except US.

DAC clear 60 utility helicopter marine time for Indian navy.

They already made a better pitch than Dassault who agreed to local assembly and partial production only after ordering 128+ aircraft. Picking the right aircraft aside, Boeing would setup the line faster anyway, and this Indian plant would see orders from other countries.

No one wants that plane anymore. They want to squeeze a bit more profit out of a dead dog plane by making India take the bait

Isn't Dhruv Mark IV same as Rudra? Why does CG wants a Rudra type heli?

To have some firepower

Some are saying that the kilo class refit by HSL signed recently may have li-on batteries...any one got anything solid on that?

I highly doubt that will happen, the contract mentions a normal refit which means all the existing systems will be overhauled and whatever components need replacement will be replaced.
INS Sindhukriti already has underwent a deep refit/mid life upgrade back in 2015.

Naaaa. There's serious efforts ongoing by IN and pvt firms towards that. But nothing concrete yet

That Mig29k airframe itself is jagged..

Exposure to sea water conditions make any fine airframe susceptible to wear and tear.
Mig 29K is a fine design imho.
