I was hoping they could get the Black Shark Advanced Torpedo from Italy, especially after maybe India dropped for its Scorpene Submarines in favor of the F21 French Torpedos. Also, I hope Pakistan buys the new Turkish 533mm heavy weight torpedo. These two advanced Torpedos should pose a considerable challenge to the Indians.PN Aviation's Torpedo of choice is the Mk46:

Masoomana Sawal:
Has the Mk46 been upgraded to Mk54?
Easily Upgradeable From MK 46
The Mk.46 is short legged. What I was hoping with the Be-200, was landing on the water, firing 3-4 advanced heavy weight wire guided Torpedos from Torpedo tubes built into the hull or from an internal weapons bay towards a target, and then fly away when the mission is done. 3-4 Torpedos at about 1500-2000 kg each is the cargo capacity of the Be-200 (7500 kg), and between 3-4 Torpedos the probability of scoring a hit could be high.
