1.The point that u raised was not whether they were 'defenceless' but whether they can get close to to each other.And chances of getting close to these small carriers when both fleets have them is pretty good.As for identification it is not seperately each system,but a combination of all these methods that are used.And modern shipborne phased array radars can pick up vessels well out to 300 kms.Two blind fleets with ship born helos? right.....Maritime patrol is another perfectly viable method.They have huge range and can easily be used from shores.As for satellites,CAP fighters and AEW they are not foolproof but viable,together all these make up very viable means of detection.Sure you do, but how do you know what kind vessels they are? Or IN just gonna launch missiles everytime they find some vessels on the sea?2.Again hiding behind commercial traffic skirt,face it u got no defense once chinese oil tankers from the gulf start blowing up,than to cry to big daddy usa who might condemn it but actually will enjoy the proceedings as long as they aren't hurt substantially.No damage comes to USA when a oil tanker of china from gulf is seized.You don't believe me,even in 1971 attack on karachi we blew up usa ship venus challenger that was carrying ammunition for pak.We are talking about two fleets at sea, not shore based defences.Did anything happen?Oil is legitimate war material and we will see chinese oil tankers shut down,while usa eats popcorn and cheers for us to shut down chinese bully.Hu? when did IN blow up a US ship?And do you really dont know the difference between an ammunition ship and commercial tankers carry other countrys flags? I mean seriously?4.LOL, sure, stick to your Bollywood script, not my problem that you dont understand the basics of freedom at sea.
Ridiculous taken to the extreme by you.Carried by fighters only?What do you think hundreds of destroyers,frigates and cruisers around the world have as their primary armament?Lollipop?Each frigate and destroyers worth its salt carries 8-16 surface attack cruise missiles as its primary attack armament.With the long range cruise missiles this is not ww2 with ship to ship gun battles,son.Yah, like type 45 of UK , guess you have never heard about anti defence DDGS. rofl.All navies recognize this.son, US is already moving missiles to subs. YOu have already missed the boat.The type of advantage ur talking about wold only exist if one side had carriers and other didn't and substantial number of fighters on that carrier to attack in wave after wave from a safe distance to overwhelm defences.Only a supercarrier has that much firepower and these days even it is reported to be sitting duck in exercises against subs.nop, only exist in your fanboy mind5.There is sum total of 1 pic in the net of a klub missile launch from ANY platform,and that was from a indian navy talwar class frigate.Ignorance is a bliss. It is not about supercarriers, it is about number of sorties.So don't try to use it as cover,all sources have indicated indian akula carries klubs.Guess you dont know the difference between SLCM and firing from a frigate.....Just no SLBMs or nuclear tipped missiles.This means we can't convert the akula to a quasi SSBN or equip it with our new SLBM k-15 or k-4 or put nuke cruise missiles on it and thats why ss-n-21 cruise missile was not sold with it.so no pic, hu? Dont blame you.
What u think we are buying another akula class with our money and putting brahmos VLS cells on it so it can be a showpony?You think there is a buy clause after 10 yr lease for fun?Stop being cheap.6.Agreed.LOL, where is your source that you modified akula?
I have made my points clear. see no reason to repeat my points. Have fun in this thread.
