@AdvaitKusha94 @Kunal_Biswas707 If it's a UVLS then , both load outs possible.
Depending on requirements it can be set

@Kunal_Biswas707 @22Chandy Multipicarion factor ?
each tube 8-9 Nirbhay or 6 Brahmos ?

For a fact that i am convinced that Indian Navy converted one SSBN into it's own "arsenal submarine", INS Arihant could carry up to 12 K-15 Sagarika in 4 missile tubes carrying 3 per tube, It's highly likely the newer S2 or S3 converted to carry 24 × K-15 Sagarikas. 🇮🇳👑
𝐊𝐔𝐍𝐀𝐋 𝐁𝐈𝐒𝐖𝐀𝐒@Kunal_Biswas707
When US Congress canceled the funding for "Arsenal Ships"in 1998, the USN converted 4 Ohio SSBN into "arsenal submarines." which carry up to 154 Tomahawks, with 22 missile tubes carrying 7 per tube. A single Ohio-class SSGN shifts the balance of firepower in an entire region.

@AdityaS76580707 @KSingh_1469 There still might be value as a missile truck, carrying long range stand off munitions
Also could take on a role of mothership for UAVs
Even the Chinese are still keeping around the J-16/J-15 variants if I'm not wrong
English
@22Chandy @KSingh_1469 What the point of mega upgrade ? When it will be not used , in any air to air combat due to large RCS .
English
The two issues aren’t linked
The IAF has let the SU fleet rot. Even if you abandon Rafale dreams now the SU fleet are obsolete with not even a contract existing to upgrade a single airframe
Dany@wartrophy_414
F3R's ISE is not even 5yrs old btw for which IAF gladly paid $1.7B & now we should upgrade then to F4 for a premium cost while 260 Su-30s fly on PESA Radars.

Beats me why the Russians would want to transport super-sensitive cargo - N sub reactor parts - over sea - within shooting distance of half a dozen NATO members. Safer would’ve been overland - through the land border with North Korea- the Friendship bridge over the Tumen river-

@trainwalebhaiya Ppl aren't getting ur speaking from a railfan POV
English
@trainwalebhaiya Non standard diamond cross?
Know what's a diamond crossing
What's a non standard one?
English
So as per Railways, the incident happened on a non standard diamond crossing, what are being phased out all over Indian Railways, it's just that it should have been done earlier to prevent such untoward accident.

#WATCH | Mumbai, Maharashtra: CPRO, Central Railway, Swapnil Nila says, "Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus to Solapur Vande Bharat Express, has derailed on a non-standard diamond crossing near Pune Station. The diamond crossing is being replaced immediately. Also, similar non-standard diamond crossings across Indian Railways are being replaced." (Source: CPRO CR)

🚨 First-ever Vande Bharat derailment today.
Train 22225 (Mumbai CSMT-Solapur Vande Bharat) derailed in Pune yard, one bogie off the tracks. No injuries or casualties reported so far.

@trainwalebhaiya hats off bro 👏👏
you truly deserve it 🥳🎉, your the gold standard of railfanning and inspiration to us all 🙏
English
Both. For different reasons.
For 003, since it is still using conventional power, the new AOE can help with carrying more fuel for the carrier itself.
For 004, the carrier may have a carrier air wing with a mix of larger 6th gen fighters and large number of unmanned aircraft, the new AOE can carry more jet fuel for it.
English
It is an apple to orange comparison to put PLAN's new AOE next to a few contemporary carriers. Though it is one way to leave an impression of its sheer size.
At 270m in length, the new AOE is only slightly shorter than the Prince of Wales while longer than the Vikrant and Kaga.
It is likely to reach 65,000 - 70,000 metric tons in full displacement, and that is only lighter than the PoW while significantly heavier than the other 2 carriers here.
It will be an invaluable member of the future Chinese carrier group centered around their super carriers.
SomePLAOSINT@someplaosint
Ok. I was being lazy. This is not a Type 901. Considering Type 901 already has a full displacement of 48,000 metric tons. This new replenishment ship is going to be monstrously big.
English
@wartrophy_414 What about energy based weapons, like lasers, microwaves ect
English
Biggest threat to India's Long range Air defenses like those S-400s are drones. Small, in greater numbers, flying just above AD gun ranges while actively hunting. While how many CUAS interceptors & solutions IAF has today? How many will be there in the next 5yrs?
Snehesh Alex Philip@sneheshphilip
Drones have come in and will stay but it will not make a strategic impact in warfare, says the Retd Air Marshal
English
@KaliputraX Ideally we should start now, work on the sub systems so by the time approval and construction begins integration should be relatively easier
Test a scaled down ver of emals at INS Hansa , have it launch SWiFT's, and possibly make a Naval LCA CATOBAR capable, and test reactors
English
@MapOsnit Could it be a case of how the System is used, rather than it's the system itself
Like Russian S400 performance vs Indian S400 performance
Do many of the Gulf states and the us bases have layered air defense and sufficient drone countermeasures
🤔🤔
English
After this Iran fiasco, US will never Try NK , SK must be shitting bricks watching US air defense performance

@trainwalebhaiya @bhaumikgowande At least for an R&D sake it should be built 😁
Lots of innovation would come from it
English
@bhaumikgowande Naah, costly tech TBH, bullet trains running at 320kmph will be fine balancing cost and profitability
English
501 km/hr. Just imagine. Its as fast as a flight but with more stops. Bring Shinkansen Maglev to India!!!!!!
Yogi Adityanath@myogiadityanath
You can see that I was travelling at 501 km/h. Experienced Japan’s advanced SCMAGLEV train in Yamanashi, a next-generation high-speed system that reaches speeds of up to 500 km/h and represents the future of clean, efficient and precision mobility. The ride was smooth and remarkably stable even at extraordinary speed, reflecting Japan’s commitment to innovation and long-term infrastructure excellence. When technology moves at this speed, the future feels closer than ever.
English
@Kunal_Biswas707 A practice we should adopt tbh
The design agencies should have their own platforms
Ik hal has access to 2 Tejas fr testing
Maybe give the design bureau and MDL a rajput ddg as a test bed 😁
English
Meet China's State Shipbuilding Corporation's Discovery-1 civilian research vessel and aircraft carrier. It is primarily used for testing drones and helicopters. 🇨🇳
It's like HAL or India's Warship Design Bureau has its own carrier independent of the Navy to test prototypes. 🇮🇳
English
@Kunal_Biswas707 what about the Nirbhay and its variants 🤔🤔(LRLACM,SLCM) , would provides us with quantity (plus range too)
would allow the forces to perform a sturation attack before any op , like American Tomahawk strikes
English
BrahMos which proved momentum and speed is more effective than stealth, since BrahMos-NG and Rudram are priority.
English
Exotic weaponry in the Armenian arsenal, including smart guided bombs and cruise missiles. Wonder if Raghu Vamsi Aerospace Group had any hand in it. Armenian forces have a lot of drones and optical systems, along with small arms and artillery of Indian origin. 🇮🇳🇦🇲
