Indian Navy Developments & Discussions

LOVE IT!.. Did you edit the 3d model of just the photo?

Size if off BTW, the mast will be larger

edited a SS i took from a 3d model preview .... yes for p17 i agree but if i made the mast larger the front illuminator would have to be edit so i didnt

L&T is already building large ships. the multi role vessels exceed 3000 tonnes.

L&T are making the largest naval vessels the IN has ever ordered right now

The argument they don’t have expertise and should be kept out of frigates/destroyers when GSL got the Talwar order makes no sense.

L&T is doing everything asked of them in every defence space- air, land and sea, I don’t know why you’d throttle them back

If the IN was sensible they’d make NGF in enough units to sustain 3 yards making it in parallel

The PLA(N) are turning out destroyers like hot cakes and some want to limit some Indian yards to OPVs or do the 3+4 units, wait 10 years and repeat game

Ideally India would also have 2 lines running in parallel for attack subs (SSN are separate) but if P76 is ever going to be made it’ll be at MDL

There is a huge difference between your principle surface combatant like corvettes ,frigates and destroyer and fleet support ships thats why a single nilgiri class frigate costs 540-550 million usd compared to 440-450 million usd which the fleet support ship costs even though there is such big diffrrence in tonnage

Indian navy is sensible enough not to burn all their cash on ngf since they need ngc and much much costlier ngd too

Plan is pouring money into ocean provide the same money i can guarantee our ship yards can be optimised to that level in a few tears where there would be such big demand the industry would follow up pretty soon

Ssn are nuclear powered attack submarines
I dont think any shipyard other than vizag one carry expertise to manufacture nuclear boomers or ssns
Talking bout ssk the capabilities should be divided into multiple shipyards is what i agree too
