INS Chakra/Akula II

[sesha_maruthi27]

First we have succed in testing AGNI 5 and then only we can think about an SLBM design or integration. Even though we are designing or preparing blue-prints for an SLBM, it takes years to bring it on for real. So, it will take another 5-10 years for an SLBM to be integrated with our sub-marines.

No mate. It won't take that long.

Agni-V will be test early next year and inducted by 2014 max.

K-4 is scheduled to be tested in next 2 years only.

By 2020, We will be operating 4 SSBN equipped with K-4,K-5 with 3-7 MiRV each and K-15 too for Pakistan specific.

We bought Akula for training purpose of Arihant Class only. It will have Cruise Missile with max. range 300 Km due to MRTC treaty.

sesha, we are not that far behind, it was posted previously but can be reposted here

We have made smart design for tube in ATV, since it will have two missiles, K15 and K4/A3(SL)/A6. Both these missiles have been tested from this Pontoon platform.

length of this platform would give you basic idea about hight of ATV.

each tune in ATV can be house either one K4 or one 3. you can see from the inside pic of Pontoon

please dont be surprised if in future you are going to see other missile launch from this platform with modification of tube like this

or extended version of K15

as K15 can be extended to same length as K4.

Regarding A3 SL is under testing for some time (not full test) but something like this (this is chines SLBM)



to test is under water boosters, rest of the missile is same as regular A3.

once ATV is tested at high sea, after that weaponistation would take place. BTW it wont be bad idea to tow this Pontoon platform behind regular submarine and then launch SLBM.

So, India is going to be well equipped before any Chinese misadventure takes place.

India likely to get Russian nuclear submarine by year-end

India likely to get Russian nuclear submarine by year-end

NEW DELHI: India will finally get to operate INS Chakra, the rechristened Akula-II class nuclear-powered submarine 'K-152 Nerpa' being leased from Russia for 10 years, in the new year.

With PM Manmohan Singh now in Moscow, sources said India would in all probability get the Nerpa around end-December. Over 50 Indian officers and sailors have undergone extensive training on the Nerpa, followed by testing and acceptance trials of the submarine spread over several weeks, as was earlier reported by TOI.

The submarine will not complete India's "nuclear triad'' since it will not be armed with long-range nuclear-tipped missiles due to international treaties like the Missile Technology Control Regime.

But it will help train Indian sailors in the complex art of operating nuclear submarines, which will be useful when India's own nuclear submarine, the over 6,000-tonne INS Arihant, becomes operational next year. Armed with torpedoes and 300-km Klub-S cruise missiles, Nerpa will also be a lethal hunter of enemy submarines and warships.

The 10-year lease flows from an agreement inked between India and Russia in January 2004, with New Delhi funding part of Nerpa's construction at Komsomolsk-on-Amur shipyard with an initial $650 million. It was slated for induction much earlier but technical glitches delayed the process, which included a toxic gas leak in November 2008 that killed 20 Russian sailors.

Incidentally, the 'Charlie-I' class nuclear submarine India had leased from Russia from 1988 to 1991 was also named INS Chakra but the expertise gained on it was steadily lost since Indian Navy did not operate any other nuclear submarine thereafter.

Here starts another big scam....

India make sure it's not junk like SUKHOI, which often comes down and put Pilot's life in danger !!!

Do we need nuclear submarines ???? NO!!! we need Metro, best Roads, Hospitals for ALL , Power plants, Ports and Best science and technology institutions.... these politicians are just doing opposite.. buying old and dangerous tech...

According to me if they have a right to vote then it should be taken away because they're retards.

These are the kind of people I hate the most, interestingly these are also the first ones to lament the lack of security when something happens.

Russian nuclear sub 'ready' for India transfer

MOSCOW, December 28

Russia's Nerpa nuclear submarine has finished sea trials and is now ready to be leased to the Indian navy in the next few days, an engineer said on Wednesday.

"The submarine is now fully ready to carry out its tasks," a senior executive at the Amur Shipyard, where the submarine was built, told RIA Novosti. "It will be handed over before the end of the year."

When Russia makes the delivery, it will make India only the sixth operator of nuclear submarines in the world. Earlier this month, it launched the first of its own nuclear submarines.

The ten-year lease is worth $920 milion.'

The Nerpa, an Akula II-class attack submarine, had originally been scheduled for delivery in 2008 but an accident earlier that year forced the Russian authorities to put it on hold.

Twenty people, mostly civilians, were killed when a fire-suppressant gas was released on the Nerpa during shakedown trials, in one of Russia's worst naval accidents.

Good thing they moved it out of Russian docks, otherwise it might turn into a melted tire.
