Good news for you !

 

[SR-91]

Sharks are scavengers, they don't hunt

True
Orca's are true hunters!!!!!

Atleast Antony was Secular

So being Sicular is more important than National Security. Great Logic.

nice painting, it looks alike fish...may add to its stealth!

Not Sure but @Penguin can help!

No paint, no anechoic tiles yet.

One more - How well do sub-sonic SM-39 Exocet anti-ship missiles fair against modern Close-in Weapon Systems?

..... not funny

..... not funny

I was serious, indeed!

Now this is funny. .. feel free to join me guys

nobody is going to join you as you have not proved yourself....pls, put forward your contention as why do you think I was being funny with my comment on paint applied on Sub!

For real ? Fish like paint will help in stealth characteristics

WHAT do you think . India China Pakistan buy submarines to bread new variety of fish

Well, lets put it this way, both Goalkeeper and Phalanx are perfectly capable of shredding a supersonic missile. They should have no problem shredding a subsonic missile, once detected. However, existing subsonic missiles do tend to fly at even lower levels compared to supersonic missiles during final approach, and tend to fly low all the way in (making them harder to detect than the hi-low flying supersonics, reducing response time in a different way then through speed). Such very low flight leads to problematic radar-phenomenon called multipathing, which can lead a CIWS to oscillate between the actual target and a virtual target (its reflection in the sea). A missile like Exocet is much smaller in length and diameter compared to most supersonics (klub being the exception), and has a lower thermal signature, all making it harder to detect, reducing response time. Subsonic missiles can maneuvre more easily during final stage. So, the subsonic AShM should not be underestimated.

with all due respect sir, i would like to ask u one question,Will our SSN's be as quite as the soviet fourth gen submarines aka akula that we own????

@Abingdonboy "Sir"! You have come a long way since I was last here.

As to our submarines being quite, as quite as soviet submarines like the Nerpa. They could be, it is after all predicated by the design and the engineering finesse.
