Not sure why that statement about bidding farewell to the 'albatross'. They're all (8) being upgraded, some already delivered. So they aren't going anywhere.

Anurag

This is good news indeed. They should be able to apply the same concept to the LCH Naval variant that can be used on-board future LHD shpis.

The cockpit of the M-2000-I should look something similar to the picture below, even though this one from the M2K-5

There is NO requirement for a second Vikrant-Class type of similar size.

Anurag

Thanks for the condescending reply, perhaps you can next explain to me the difference between a surface and sub-surface boat. The point is there will be no second Vikrant other than the Vishal, period. To put it in perspective for everyone who keep asking for a second Vikrant-class. Think LCA=Vikran...

Anurag

The Vishal is the second Vikrant class. Not sure why this is so confusing.

What's the tonnage to GTO when you put four S200s for the ULV?

No drop tank under the fuselage? I know I've seen it carry three drop tanks!

Two more of the same class to be built over the next decade and half would do good before the Vishal class materializes. Lot of new technologies to develop or even absorb to operate in that class. Even the bigger dry dock required will not be ready before 2020 very likely. Is that a statement or a ...

Not much at the moment.

That island looks quite complete. You're not seeing the full height from the base of the island because of the ski-jump obstruction.

So a quick question for the more learned. After IRNSS-1B, the other two launches before year end will complete the four satellites in GSO. Are they using the 3 GEO sats for the system from the existing ones already up there? I take it those would have been the ones launched from Arianne launch some ...

Don't you think the Chinese would have caught the plane at DG by now. They would have looked for it much earlier and raised hell about it, would have been a good PR opp.

After all they have 21 satellites "deployed"

Time to plan a major naval exercise in the far east command.

So let's see who finds it first! IN up to it? I hope not. That means that it will be in Indian waters and a hundred Amriki and Chini ships will come in under the pretext of salvaging the remains. I guess what does 'Indian Waters' mean? It can be further south neared to DGish area too. After all we'...

I remember during the mid 80 the Ranjit class ships were the spearhead destroyers in WNC and watching one of these as a child in the Naval Yards with their dark black paint gave it a fearsome look.

Navantia wins Turkish order for LPD: So we have been doing expeditionary operations, albeit in a limited way. With the induction of the C-17 and US-2 this capability is going to be boosted further.

The only thing i'd say is let them use the Il-76's until the MTA come in to the picture. The airlift capability with the C-17s, C-130s & existing IL-76 (with future replacements from MTA) should increase the IAF's lift capability in the near future. Much needed! I never appreciated any estimates...

Hi Niranjan, Yes you're right. The first Tejas sq. will be raised at Sulur. I stand corrected.

Another Su-30 squadron in Thanjavur coming up this month. I believe the first Tejas Sq. is also set up be raised here. I count a total of 14 sq. by 2018.
