Indian Navy Developments & Discussions


ok so 40k crore for 2 submarines =2-3 billion usd per submarine

the reactor could be much bigger than the 83Mw reactor on the arihant for better under water speed combined with the unlimited endurance of Nuclear reactor

one of the best threads regarding the reactor used in arihant and ssn

btw imo 190Mw would be overkill for 6000tonnes displacement and it would increase the cost substantially we could do better with 150-160Mw reactor

I've seen this thread for years and always wondered why can't we proceed to build 50k tonne carrier having solid 35-40 TEDBF with two of these 190MW reactors.
 
could be just for representation purposes, GRSE has been involved in some recent ToT with the industry for CRN-91.
yeah no, NSG-30 is an import.
It comes under Buy (Indian), and GRSE entered into a JV with BHSEL (rebranding Israeli products) for these. Currently, it is being manufactured with 60% IC but will go up to 80-90% as these will be featured on many new ships.

cause they arnt ready till now and its not just 190mw we would need power system new design grounds up emals design and other things too
so in simple 7-8 billion per carrier including rnd (other things we would need is a big air wing 2-4 squadrens of aircraft with awacs too thats another 5-7 billion since we would import)

above it would come the flotilla that should be ready to protect the carrier from incoming threats so you can see easily 20 billion cost (after it cost of running and maintain)

include inflation it would seem very bad investment for smaller economy like ours our primary enemies lies on

There might be some drawbacks with Steam catapult, but we can skip the EMALS for first Carrier and buy existing steam catapult tech from US.
Unlike Fujian we don't have to worry about power efficiency with nuclear powered Carrier.
