I asked PKS the following question on his blog:

Sir,

Recently TOI published two back to back news on scorpenes, first one quoted French ambassador as saying that the first scorpene will be inducted into IN by 2014. While the second one said that there will be a delay of 18 months to the original date of 2015. Whats you take on it??

His Reply:

The Ambassador had said that the 1st Scorpene would be delivered by 2014. Being a non-military person, what he probably meant was that the 1st Scorpene SSK would be launched in MDL’s wet-basin by 2014, following which final fitting-out will be carried out & then the sea-trials will begin & only after all this has been successfully undertaken will the SSK be commissioned into service, probably by late 2015.

I think he's spot on here- he's usually correct on naval affairs- pata nahi why he bungles up aviation and missile related matters sometimes. Thanks yaara, I actually saw your question on his blog and his reply.

I hope PKS did know that being an Ambassador he has many knowledgeable "aids" who help him in e answering the questions with factual and correct data.

Ambassador of countries don't say anything that is not 100 correct or they are not supposed to say

A modernised version built for Pakistan, the Agosta 90B, has a crew of 36 plus 5 officers and can be equipped with the MESMA air-independent propulsion (AIP) system.

Those guys need to have enough money to buy them in the first place!

Actually it is not can be , they are already equipping Agosta 90B with MESMA.Work has already begun.
