Re: Project 76 SSK: News & Discussion: 20 July 2025
When we can have our own P-76 SSK, then there should not be any P-75I. All the stakeholders should focus on this P-76 program and production run of 12-18 submarines in 3 or 4 tranches. If there is any thoughts of stopgap, then it should be SSN and here MDL production line could be used after the 3 S...

Re: Project 76 SSK: News & Discussion: 20 July 2025
I hope it materializes then we might have 3 shipyard for submarine building.
HSL & MDL to build SSN/SSGN/SSBN
L&T to build SSK.
This will help to build up the sizeable sub surface capability in a relatively quick time.

IN's requirement of TEDBF is less than 100, unless IAF join this project and augment this number to 100+, chances of getting funding to TEDBF is very bleak.

Earlier we used to have ceasefire of cross-border firing, this is certainly different and may be resumed if there are any more terrorist attack.
No doubt about US involvement to get this break and IMO the reason would be : they might need pork in workable condition for their persian adventure.

Re: Kaveri & Aero-Engine: News & Discussion
As per the video posted in above post, there is degradation of 7-8% of thrust in case of 404 and if it is same for 414 then the thrust of 414 will come down to ~90-92KN so why restrict upcoming flatrated Kaveri-90Kn to just Tejas-Mk1A, it should also be use in TEDBF/AMCA Mk1.

Astra Mk 1: Solid-propellant rocket
Astra Mk.2: Dual-thrust pulsed rocket motor
Astra Mk.3: Solid Fuel Ducted Ramjet
IMO if there is any Astra Mk4 then it might be booster+scramjet and the same concept we can see in SAM also.

I think it is time to hedge against both 404 and 414. US behavior is unreliable in this case and can delay both Tejas Mk1A and Mk2. DRDO/HAL should work in parallel to integrate M88-3 or M88-4E in Mk1A for next batch of 97 Mk1As and either M88-4 or upgraded version of Kaveri for Mk2 but then there i...
