INS Varsha is a new naval base being developed under Project Varsha for the Indian navy. This base will be the home of the navy's new fleet of nuclear submarines and ships & will hold India current & future nuclear submarine.
While designed principally as a nuclear submarine support facility, the base can accommodate other naval vessels because of the Indian Navy's expansion. This facility has been compared to the top-secret hainan nuclear submarine base for the Chinese PLA Navy.
construction on the site is going at a rapid pace
the base is massive, i measure the total length from a tunnel under construction to possible submarine entry point & its almost 3 km, at some places its 80+ mt high & 300+ mt wide, i could identify 5 tunnel while there seem to be 2 more under construction they are elaborated below
tunnel 1 & 2.
along side tunnel 1 there seem to be another tunnel under construction or either complete,i cant say because i am not an expert. tunnel 2 also seem to be complete
tunnel 1 complex under construction
tunnel 3,4 & 5.
tunnel 4.
tunnel 3 & 5.
work on all three tunnel is either complete or in progress with possibility of two more tunnel under construction adjacent to tunnel no 3.
2 more tunnel under construction?
the base is not complete yet & will take few more years but by the look it seem it will match hainan naval base quite easily or even surpass it.
NOTE: This article does not threatens India's national security as the materiel is available over internet, any new information & experts on the matter would be helpful as i clarified im not an expert
