This is L&T ARL system (RBU-6000). I think P17A design has the scope to add 2 VL-SRSAM or MRSAM VLS blocks behind RBU.

With P15 design, nothing can be added around RBU. Maybe 2 MRSAM VLS blocks can be squeezed in, just between SSM and existing MRSAM VLS blocks. Also there is potential space available in the ship aft section next to existing VLS blocks (2 MRSAM VLS).

I couldn't find dimensions of MRSAM VLS so not sure how it compares with VL-SRSAM one.

May be rail which stacks the RBU rockets don't need to be in a straight line which will save space

No BMD or layered air defense, only 192/128 Barak-8s per fleet

Are Kamortas or subs not assigned to CBGs?

Yes Kamortas and the Scorpenes are also supposed to be a part of the CBG, forgot to mention them.

By the way, nobody discussed about this. This is 'Varun MKI NSUAS', a 550kg MTOW class Multi Utility Long Endurance Drone (MULE). It is a Naval Shipborne Unmanned Aerial System (NSUAS) class UAV for which Design and Development contract under iDEX was given by Navy. Original requirement for NSUAS systems remains for 40 units as per the latest RFI.

A glimpse of the prototype development of the said system, which as of now is flying already (as per their website).

That said, it looks eerily similar to Ukrainian RZ-500, and I won't be surprised if it's another "Self Reliance". Just like how the latest Solar industries drone is most likely to be another than own R&D.

From the ghetto looking prototype in the video t seems like they have only stolen the render of the ukrani drone, or maybe are copying it's exteriors.
Don't think a no name company can license the design because not enough paisa but kya pata

It is not some no-name company, it has been there for a long time supplying to the Navy. That's why I hope only the renders look sem2sem as the model/proto does look a bit different. But I wonder how true the specifications are.
