Borei Class nuclear submarines for India?

[SpArK]

India badly needs a modern submarine fleet. In recent years, Russia has begun building a new class of nuclear powered ballistic submarines, the Borei Class of vessels. Modi should pitch for these submarines.
If this requires cutting expenditures elsewhere, that should be done without any hesitation. Our relationship with Russia is too important to be left to the vicissitudes of indifferent foreign policy. The time to become proactive is now.

Gentlemen, Your thoughts and rants, Please.

Are they for sale first?

@SpArK; not likely. Transfer of SSBNs is not on the cards. Though a second Akula may get transferred.

I predict a sale. Do remember I said it today.

Traditionally, defence has been a pivotal area of cooperation between India and Russia and the latter’s support has been unstinting. Here too, there has been drift in the last few years and some corrective action is much needed.

Firstly, transferring a nuke submarine was a risky move for Russia. Now, a whole SSBN.

Even if it transferred, then by which weapon you gonna weaponize it, k-15? even we cant install a indian made weapon on a foreign sub.

Any inside info on this bro or just pure speculation?
BTW awesome weapon if inducted in Indian Arsenal.

Now that is an intriguing prediction. However, the GoI policy has always been to keep the SFC assets and platforms clear of any "foreign" strings. Thus far, I have not heard of any changes to that.

How about Bulava SLBM s INSTEAD of Borei Submarines

It is the missile that kills not the submarine

Bro how long can we depend on foreign countries , its high time we develop all these things in India or via JV . my $0.02.

Its a waste of such a wonderful platform, if it gonna weaponize with K-15. Even we cant weaponize a foreign platform with a missile, which have a range of more than 300 Km.

And Russia dont gonna transfer Bulva SSBN. Its a pure myth, it not gonna happen in this world.

It's a great submarine .But it's not possible to sell a nuclear to India . It's against international law I guess . But we can surely get help from Russians and build it on our own . Only way . I really wonder what stops India from getting submarine launched intercontinental ballistic missile technology under the table .? Chinese did it for decades not only with Russia but also from Israel. Just two of these submarines can with fully capable BM will surely keep china at bay ! Modi should look into this . If possible do send you idea to my gov . Com or .In . Search Google .

Please note these submarines are highly advanced than anything even Russians have . These kind of superior weapons are built to revamp Russian armed forces might. For war with west (Ukraine invasion). I don't think russia will give it or sell it to us . As they them self need borei class submarines.

I think we should continue building indigenous subs

If that really materializes...may you live another 100 yrs.
