Don't worry............. It would be delivered within 2023 & its cruising speed would be more then that of Vikramaditya.
Delayed for several times, change engine means almost rebuilt.

I thinks 2023 is few possible to finish.

Being the first indigenous carrier development program, delay was inevitable. On top of that we didn't have facility at first place to accommodate a 40k ton hull. The actual buildup happened only post 2013.
So chill............ We are delayed, but would be there eventually.

Doesn't matter. China had the infra in place to accommodate such a ship whereas India didn't have one.

Good logic , you are democracy and even these company waste people's money , you are willing to see.

Low standard is OK , delay is acceptable , good to know India people.

Chinese people/compoany is different , if you do something , you need to do something good , and you need to finish on time.

In China , you need to working hard with careful and smart ,so this is why China develop better than India,

This is why China can built a carrier on time , but India can't .

American naval engines are much better than Russian and Ukrainian one's.
That's the reason why india is using American naval engines in its new ships.
We all know how ins Vikramaditya boilers are creating havoc.

And not to mention when boilers developed problems it was found out to be MADE IN CHINA, maybe they supplied to test their capability.

Just tell the truth , vessel manufacture can slow , but do not delay again and again then give a lot of excuse.

I think this Vikrant will be delivered later than China's 4th aircraft carrier (3rd self made) .

Because the power system of Vikrant is wrong, it may take a long time to add or replace the engine.

God bless you Vikrant.
I think you are confused with Lioning an named it Vikrant. Liong has an engine Problem. Its engine failed even after it became operational.

Aircraft carrier Vikrant likely to be commissioned by 2021: Report


The manufacturing of the country's first indigenous aircraft carrier Vikrant is currently under phase three which involves setting to work of machinery and other equipment and it is likely to be commissioned by early 2021, sources said on Wednesday.

This carrier is being built at the Cochin Shipyard Limited (CSL) in Kochi.

"Currently, phase three of the construction of Vikrant is under progress, which involves setting to work of machinery and equipment, like power generation and propulsion machinery. The carrier is likely to be commissioned by early 2021," a source told PTI.

The third phase of construction will go on till acceptance of harbour and sea trials, sources added.

Aviation trials would also take a year or so after that, they said.

Navy Chief Admiral Karambir Singh on December 3 had said that Vikrant will be fully operational by 2022 and it will have a fleet of MiG-29K aircraft.

The first indigenous aircraft carrier Vikrant complemented with MiG-29K aircraft will be showcased as part of the Navy's tableau during the ceremonial parade on Rajpath on the Republic Day, officials said.
