--> French interested in SSNs for India when media reports 2nd Akula for IN.Perhaps this explains recent media "news" (today denied by another media source) that USN officers visited SSN Chakra.

--> This same French Yard has also built SSBNs for FN & Scorpene conventional subs for Chilean & Malaysian Navies. So France cud also be showing its capabilities for proposed $10 bn IN Project 75(I) conventional subs.

This French SSH considered one of the best in the world.

If dcns is offering Barracuda class ssn then it's a good fit for IN...I'm not sure about ssk version of it!!

I always wondered, how did French manage to get into Indian defence market so heavy.

Our brothers British - couldn't make big into Indian defence market.

British had all the advantages such as: language, history, Indian diaspora, cultural ties, etc.

French don’t needlessly sanction and takedown to India.

 

[vikata]

is it nuclear capable

 

[Jinn Baba]

May be they can offer something similar as being offered to the Australians. Makes sense to go French - you have experience with the Scorpene subs and will definitely get better kickbacks

Gotta agree on this one.

 

[Indian Jatt]

kickbacks are better than begging and get used for drone testing.

That was a seriously insecure response! The French are notorious for offering kickbacks, they did it with Pakistan too with the Agostas - hence my comment. The politicians and government officials are equally corrupt in Pakistan and India; and you can deny it as much as you want, but kickbacks play a massive role on what weapons or systems are purchased.
