Acoustic Signature of Arihant-class SSBN

[DrSomnath999]

China has operated the nuclear sub for more than 40 years, so I don't think it is appropriate to put China in the same category with India who hasn't yet deployed an operational nuclear sub.

india had operated charlie class nuclear sub leased from Russia during the cold war

CHEERS

ACoustic signature primarily depends on

1) Hull design / sonar absorbing coating

2) Propeller design

3) Power unit (Nuclear/ AIP) sound level

CHEERS

Just look at the coating of the Virginia class SSN, it is already falling apart.

And I hope they won't accuse "Made in China" as the culprit for this.

I have a question, what China and India are in common with each other?

Does India have the thermonuclear warhead like China?

Does India have the ICBM like China?

Does India have yet to deploy their own nuclear sub? China has done that since 40 years ago.

Except the population size, China and India have nothing in common with each other.

@Beidou2020 @Martian2

Exactly
China doesn't have a Mars Mission
China is far behind India in thorium research
& how do you know that we posses s Thermo nuclear warhead or not orbeven a ICBM
don't be so gulibel these things are notbopenly advertise

 

[ChineseTiger1986]

Same with SCS

I am yet waiting to see that.

you are knocking a wrong door which is full of self pride

Also India went to Mars and China failed to get to Mars.

Another thing we also dont have in common.

Keep waiting that we don't use a trumpet on our sub's unlike you

Thanks to NASA.

China is on fusion, and spare us with your fission.

China's SSNs are freely roaming around the Indian Ocean, yet I am waiting an Indian nuclear sub is doing the same thing.

You won't even know when our nuclear sub is wandering close to the vicinity of your coast.

If the Indian subs are quiet and the crews skilled, you too would never know. So good luck waiting ;-)

So a super noisy sub can drive your whole navy headless?

Too bad they have never proved how skillful they are, just look at the record of their Kilo subs.

coatings have wear & tear one cannot cite such stupid pics to score some brownie points
that US subs have inferior capabilty

even there are many sources to claim Chinese nuke subs are damn noisy

The Chinese Type 094 Jin-class SSBN–“China’s first credible sea-based nuclear deterrent,” according to the Pentagon—is allegedly easier to detect than Soviet SSBNs from the late 1970s. Conversely, the acoustic signature of India’s Arihant-class SSBN “is not likely to be quieter than China’s Jin-class boats” the study notes.

Need I remind you of your famous Sub explosion & that was the one which was exposed,lord knows how many ships/sub's you have lost.anyways like you I don't try to score brownie points over people's life's so I will refrain from replying you

Also India went to Mars and China failed to get to Mars.

Another thing we also dont have in common.

The Russian rocket had failed to send our space probe.

We have just to wait our indigenous CZ-5, since it is a 25 tons LEO monster, and we are planning to send a much bigger probe next time.

 

[Penguin]

Since Arihant's design is based on the Russian Akula-1 Class submarine - is it safe to assume that it's acoustic signature will be similar to Akula-1 Class? and what are its implications? @AUSTERLITZ @MilSpec @Capt.Popeye @Penguin @Technogaianist

Why would you assume a similar accoustic signature? For starters, the Akula-1 (an SSN) and Arihant (an SSBN) look very different.

Our sub is only "noisy" on the western press, but in the reality they just don't have any clue on its whereabouts.
