India to Send Second Kilo Class Submarine to Russia for Refit in May

[Itaalvi]

What happened to the one at the bottom of the sea? Was it exhumed or left as a man made reef?

After refit with cost of 7000 crore INR and salvage with more millions of USD now they are deciding what we should do with it.

What happened to the one at the bottom of the sea? Was it exhumed or left as a man made reef?

It was salvaged at a cost of ~$4Million.Too damaged to be refitted and reused, so will probably be destroyed at sea.

After refit with cost of 7000 crore INR and salvage with more millions of USD now they are deciding what we should do with it.

The Mid Life Upgrade cost ~1000 Crore INR.

When the batteries exploded, did you see any Russian guarantees? It's a 20 year old vessel for gods sake. Don't be so naive.

Had your claim been even 10% true, China would have had atleast a 50% market share in Submarine Repair Business of Kilo Class,the world's most numerous active modern SSK.

But I don't see even Iran or Algeria turning to China for their Kilo repairs.
