‘Vaarunastra’ trials likely later this year

[GR!FF!N]

Upto 30km

upto or over???around 40 km will be great.in that case,I think IN can fill the gap of "Black Shark" without procuring any foreign torpedo..

 

[Hulk]

How does it compare to modern torpedoes?

 

[Aegis DDG]

Interesting development.

 

[SwAggeR]

It was last tested for a speed of 40 Knots. That is quite respectable for a 1 ton torpedo with 250 kg warhead.

Hey are you sankranti ??

 

[bharatiy]

can anybody post specs of Black Shark Torpedo and compare it with this one???probably India should buy these than those foreign "maal"..though that means no disrespect to Black Shark,which is leading heavyweight torpedo of the world,having range over 50 km and top speed over 50 knots.

i think black shark deal is hold

 

[GR!FF!N]

i think black shark deal is hold

it got cancelled...due to Agustawestland scam.

After completion of this Varunastra,NSTL should concentrate on a super cavitating torpedo,that will be a sight to see.

A thermal torpedo would have a speed of 70-80 knots. It would be as lethal as a super cavitating torpedo but without the corrosive fuels and associated dangers.
