Alapuzzha (March 30)- A senior officer of the Indian Navy downplayed reports of threat posed by Pakistan's submarine arm.
Speaking on the sidelines of a function hosted by the office of District Collector , Rear Admiral SJ Singh who is Flag Officer Sea Training while responding to a journalist's question, said that only 3 submarines of Pakistan's underwater arm are operational at a given time.
He added that the Indian Navy has adequate resources to deal with them and is continuously enhancing both its submarine and anti-submarine warfare capabilities.

The naval officer along with district officials also inaugurated a new helpline for fishermen in the district. The helpline will be jointly operated by Navy and Coast guards.

Makes sense.
Out of 3 Agosta 90B in PN, at most 2 are available since one is undergoing mid life overhauls.

Similarly the two Agosta 70s are nearly 40 years old so has low availibilty rate i.e. around 50-60%.

So total available subs is 3.
 
Best time for India to launch a submarine based operation to kill dawood ibrahim.
They will receive a warm :welcome:
Dawood Ibrahim is a dodo now.
He has no more any influence or value.
 
8 more submarines will be handed over to PN by 2022 making a total of 11 submarines even if all Agosta 70 are all phased out.
Actually it will be 2028 and by that Indian Navy sub fleet will also expand a lot.
