Indian Navy aiming at 200-ship fleet by 2027

[opruh]

Another dream by our Indian bothers.

anyone plays clash of clans????now the game is identical to our defense ship building industry.......indian shipyards are like COC barracks, now what happened is India kept on upgrading just one or two shipyards which can produce good quality ships of the class of destroyers and frigates and air craft carriers but forgot to upgrade rest of the shipyards.....now these two or three shipyards take long time to roll out these ships, imagine if all our big shipyards are identical to each other in properties and production....that way we can plan class of 6 ships which can be built by all 6 major shipyards in a time frame of 4-5 years......this is the only way we can make strong navy by our self........can someone put this on a tweet????its absurd idea but surely it will work....

I don't know about 200, but 170 still is achievable, since we are at 137 at present.

From what I know,
Frigates will rise to 22 from 15
Destroyers will rise to 10 from 9
Corvettes will decline to 16 from 24
Minesweepers will rise to 12 from 7
Amphibious assault ships will rise to 12 from 10
Submarine's will rise to 18 from 14
Aircraft carriers will rise to 3 from 2
FACs will remain at 20 while OPVs will decline to 9 from 11
Fleet auxiliaries will remain around 40.

So thats around 160
Taking into account future retirements and all current ships on order.
Navy will have to order 40 more ships than what it already on order,
in order to achieve the target
