Nuclear Submarine are a whole different game dude, currently only PSU are devloping nuclear reactors and proulsions, everything hinges on these, now being a govt firm they will take thier, creating an nuclear reactor small and efficient enough to fit on a sub and remain operational in differing conditions is not easy, developing such reactor can easily take 10 years, from that perspective 2036 is not bad.
and other radar guided AShM, IN should also procure Sea Breaker missiles as well. Apart from stealth shaping, they are also stealthy in the EM spectrum as they rely on IIR seeker and LPI datalink. USN is also being equipped with an equivalent missile (NSM).
Apart from
They might be more precise and successful in attacking PN ships berthed in Karachi amongst civilian traffic.

NGMV is more in a missile boat category, IN is missing out on a ASuW focused light frigate concept (for Pakistan & Bangladesh). Something like the new Taiwanese designs:

ASuW is anti-ship such as NASM or Harpoon.
I don't think they have a dedicated land based SAM system. They have C-UAS and igla or maybe rely on a capital ship to defend their naval base, etc.
but nirbhay or its latest version dont hv antiship capability. they can only fit in our destroyers nd frigate for land attack purpuse. but we cant compromise 16 brahmos on destroyer nd 8 brahmos numbers in our frigate. we hv to build other space for additional VLS (inbuilt or open) to accomodate addtional missiles, specially in our destroyers. we should add 8 minimum -16 maximum nirbhay missiles for land attacks nd 16 minimum - 32 VLSRAM missiles for second layer defense for our destroyers nd frigate.
There will be a common VLS for Nirbhay and
. When that is ready , Nirbhay will be on ships but I think it will take a long time for that , it's not a priority at this point with the work mainly on the land launched versions going on now.
They ultimately will have to get some to defend their bases from PLAN bombers firing long range cruise missiles and HGVs. AD-AH is still a long way out.
we should not decrease 16 number of brahmos from our destroyers. coz they can do both antiship nd land attacks. if we decrease brahmos number nd put some nirbhay on it. then our anti ship capability decreases, coz nirbhay cant do antiship missions. although we get near 1000-1500 km long ground attack capability. but i think for ships antiship capability is more important. coz we hv limited platforms from sea to target enemy ships. so nirbhay should only include in our destroyer nd frigate if we can make space for additional missiles on open VLS cells. like delhi class destroyer hv.There will be a common VLS for Nirbhay and
And that's a sensible approach , we don't need the Navy to do deep land attacks at Pakistan and the Navy cannot do that at China .
DF-21 and DF-26 are more likely. YJ-21 has a range of 1000-1500km, unlikely their H-6s will venture out so far to launch these at mainland naval infrastructure except for maybe Andaman islands.
