BREAKING NEWS: NUCLEAR CAPABLE ARIHANT SUBMARINE SUCCESSFULLY TEST-FIRES UNARMED MISSILE

Proud moment indeed. But I'm more interested in the nasr/babur/whatever else/ re-tests from the pakistan side.
 
Prasun K Sengupta in his blog replies has quoted the following. not sure much as the exact timing and pictures are not released

LoLz!!! This test-firing was conducted 1 week ago, but reported only on November 26, 2015. It involved firing only the booster rocket of the K-15/B-05 SLBM that separates from the missile after it lifts above the surface water at a height of a few tens of metres fro the water surface. And during the Int'l Fleet Review next February, a ceremony will be held during which the S-2/Arihant will be symbolically 'handed over' by the DRDO to the IN by the President of India. But this ceremony is not to be confused with the commissioning ceremony, which is still months away.

Dear Sir Do you have any idea about Prasun Sengupta's origin s ; background and career

He never tells any thing about himself

Neither there is any photograph of him on the net
Just this blog where he tells a million tales

Agreed Sir, thats why i said not much sure as timings and pictures not released. In another forum, Prasun's view was torn apart as his writings were point by point shown to be picked up from various magazines and book resources (BR Forum) and rehashed as his replies. One good thing is his reports does give a lot of information not available in other blogs.
BTW Mr Sengupta does have some personal business interest in airframe biz which he did quote in his blog as honest declaration.

The only pic i have seen his is from his old blog

And Force Magazine, he is pretty analytical guy. There is acute shortage of analysis in India.

Hey guy,

I like your avatar. I am also a big fan of peddy. (Gen Panamanabhan)
 
Whats up with the "nuclear capable" slogans these days? Even a donkey cart is theoretically nuclear capable. :P

Anyways, interesting development.
