Our P8 and TU 142 Bear will be a big hurdle for your submarines to allow them to use those longer range torpedoes.... and our Kilos (NATO codename BLACKHOLE) too will be waiting for them with homemade VARUNASTRA torpedo with 40 kms range

Govt says delay in supply of Russian equipment delayed construction of aircraft carrier INS Vikrant - cnbctv18.com
