2nd Kalvari class submarine Khanderi to be launched on Jan 12

[$@rJen]

Nope , all 6 will be without AIP.. Delays in DRDO.
Additional 3 offered, if accepted will have DRDO AIP.

If all are delyed then why not go for the french ones for the last 3 subs of the current contract!??

MESMA is actually the 3rd best of the currently in production 3 types of AIP.

That's why.

DRDO will take another decade .

the Lords of DRDO wont agree. They will provide AIP only a decade late and one generation behind .

Anyone who has some knowledge in welding should have noticed the issue, the welds in the pic is really a big concern.

i am guessing original contract never had AIP , but since DRDO said it ll deliver for the last 2, probably there was a talk to change the original contract.

since it was not ready, back t original contract.

Indian AIP is supposed to be safer

Nice pics, it's a great addition to the aging kilo class subs of the Indian navy.

Ceremonies are archaic. Floating out, fitting out testing, and induction need to be as silent as possible and not to be made accessible to the media. If TOI knows it, you can be guaranteed other intelligence agencies know it as well.
