INS ARIHANT : The Complete Discussion
INS Arihant Needs no Introduction. Yet I dedicate this Thread which will aim at all miniscule points that can be discussed and users would get complete info of this marvellous Indian Achievement.
Welcome To INS Arihant !
Okey so Whats the Fuss About INS Arihant??
Wow I see it's already launched into water for a long time
I hope India create a new class of UBS instead of build another rich ant. The first sub should be for study only. Especially with only 4 tubes.
It is good design . Can be converted to a SSGN .
I think first one will join the service no doubt but it always remain as "Research and devlopment platform" than a full time IN weapon
Remaining 3 will join the service as other subs.
The follow on class and remaing three of Arihant class are rumered to have more tubes that the first one
IIRC , more tubes will be added for just 3rd and 4th one . 2nd one Arhidhaman is similar in diamension to Arihant
"Informed sources said India's second nuclear submarine named "Arhidaman ins" will be and its predecessor Arihant submarine's twin. Its features, size and capabilities will be similar to Arihant."

It's a IBN news and we both know the quality of Indian defence reports. Still it's the only news in market. But what actually we know is only thing that 2nd and 3rd Arihant class are in production line. Nothing more nothing less. Nobody knows what's its size and capacity is. But I remember reading our Navel chiefs interview where he said follow on subs will come more quickly and will be more powerful.
