There was a security breach in 2018 and now the the COVID-19 Pandemic. Anyway it was supposed to be inducted by December this year but it is delayed by 10-12 months.

Doesn’t 2017 come before 2018?

and which of our Naval vessels faced delay? Tejas took 30 years doesn’t mean your logic can be applied anywhere you want

That's where you are wrong kiddo. You forgot Arjunk Tank, Nirbhay cruise missile, dhruv heli & a long list of other crappy defence products which you guys took 30y to CKD but still failed at that. Too little too little.

Was the ship built in India??? Looks very Russian

Really like the ostrich approach of our friendly neighbors India is not growing, India is not developing if I believe it isn't

Ironic that this ship can actually be considered a sister ship to the Chinese carriers.

Did India media make a mistake? The date shall be 2032, right? According to India military defense track record....

Indian fanboys should be gratefull to China. If there is anything driving this project its the fact that China is building a second aircraft carrier and one that isnt based on a Russian design. They really dont want their new flagship to end up with the stigma of taking decades to finish and be a mess of corruption and scandals.

The year 2022 is a bit optimistic, with past experiences one can safely add a decade on top of it.

Doesn’t 2017 come before 2018?

Thats Indian Logic for you.

The Ship was to be completed in 2017 but a security breach in 2018 delayed it and than covid19 happenned.

So 2018 and 2019 plus 2020 comes before 2017.

your sentence can very much summed up all the problem of your nation's both armed forces and people logic, relying and hoping for foreign input and yet still cheering and feeling proud of it.
