i am not telling that we should have imported the aip, but does this 36000 cr include the cost of adding aip in 6+3 scorpenes
ps: brigadier pratap pls dont leak sensitive information
Don't think so, contract isn't officially signed, but knowing Frenchies this will be an extra charge, not a single euro will be spared.
But then it is said the AIP will be installed while the subs are being built only, it won't be installed during a long refit like for current Kalvari submarines( for which French take moneys for certification and all )
I'm not leaking sensitive information, all this is in public domain if you read up about the AIP saga.
Ideally if the HDW SCAM didn't happen back in the day, and that kuttiya Merkel was friendly towards us, we could have bought Type 214 a decade back and closed P75i acquisition there itself.
