Is this the one with a 9km range? I guess being able to intercept torpedoes at 9Km will be useful.

9km is still too short for most submarines since modern heavy weight torpedoes have usable ranges >30 km. Maybe Pakistani torpedoes have a lower practical range?

Another invasion of Yemen seems likely to me at this point. I wonder if it will be a UN-sanctioned invasion or a US coalition-backed one.

Escalating with Yemen is pointless since Houthis are nothing more than Khamenei's disposable assets. Even if an invasion force could neutralize every single Houthi (difficult and bordering genocide), it would mean that the Iranians could pick some other tribe and start their covert war again whenever needed.

If this escalates to a point where global trade is threatened, especially for the Middle East, India and China, these countries will take collective action against Iran apart from the entire European Union who would ditch Ukraine in a jiffy to save their jugular vein. Russia might oppose in principle but will stay silent if a collective military force were to strike Iran for these reasons.

That is not something that the Iranians can handle.

I understand the need but with the whole predator situation does it even make sense to go there?

Seems more like speculation. 12 Su-30 MKI are already being considered for EW and dubbed "Growlerski". This conversion will happen along with the rest of the Super Sukhoi upgrades.

Fertile imagination, not gonna happen.

Till we have to make populist rules and the IAS is not broken, this will continue. Not just for the Navy but for all the military branches. Defence will always be India's last priority until we are invaded. That is how democracy wakes up. Remember the speed of changes that happened after the 1962 war?

Because then it gives the government a reason to sweep the bureaucracy aside and take the necessary actions. Chinese bureaucracy is dependent on the words of the CCP and specifically one man. If Xi gets pissed, half the Chinese IAS-equivalents in the country would be dragged tomorrow on to the streets and shot dead publicly.

We don't have that mechanism where PM Modi can take such drastic decisions without a probable cause of war.
