Gcreport 21 sites reported that, in order to ensure that military and political development and economic development go hand in hand, and the submarine fleet will not lag behind its neighbors in the Indian government has decided to submarines in the existing 14 basis, and then concentrate on the construction of a new diesel-electric submarines. India will cooperate with the French company DCNS, in two batches to build 12 “Scorpene” class submarines. In addition, India also continues to expand its nuclear submarine fleet. As India’s domestic nuclear attack submarines (SSN) will soon be put into operation, the Delhi government will be able to shrink the current Indian and Chinese Type 091 submarine “Han” class submarines, the gap between, and thus at the same level with China, but also India and even have the opportunity to deploy faster and better than the Chinese attack submarine, the submarine’s future than China, India, updates and more capable submarines.
India to accelerate build both nuclear submarine fleet
reported that the world still pay attention to India, and it will slowly grow as one of Asia’s powerful actors in the international community of countries. Over the years, India has been committed to active development to ensure its military development with its economic and political development go hand in hand. For this reason, the Indian fleet over the next decade may be shaping the course of international relations play an important role. In addition, in the development of surface fleet capabilities, India did not forget to strengthen the capacity of its submarine fleet, and the Delhi government seems to determine clear objectives and realistic way to achieve these goals.
Currently, the Indian Navy to maintain a team of Russian and German submarines submarine fleet, but compared to its neighbors and submarines, they do not have the technical advantage. However, India has begun with the French “Scorpene” submarine as a model, production of new diesel-electric submarines. India will help the company DCNS in France, the production of these submarines. In this way, the Indian shipyards will be able to obtain the necessary technology and skills to the future with complete self-production of these advanced submarines. The new submarines and ballistic missile submarines and the construction of nuclear attack submarines together, it can be competitive in India’s submarine fleet, to enable action in the Indian Ocean, when necessary, even in far away places to take measures to the South China Sea.
reported that India’s current fleet of submarines from the 10 Russian “Kilo” class and four German Type 209 submarines. December 1, India has a Russian old retired “Foxtrot” class submarines. It is noteworthy that, although this submarine fleet can perfectly perform the task was given, but India are neighbors in the construction or purchase of new submarines, submarines in India is slightly out of date these. To keep pace in these countries and have a competitive fleet, the modernization of the submarine fleet, the Indian Navy will be an important issue.
fact, India has been investing in construction of new submarines. In addition to plans to build a nuclear submarine fleet, India now has focused on the construction of a new diesel-electric submarines to replace the front with its offer to the Indian Navy is now used by submarines. The objective of the project include the construction of 12 two batches French “Scorpene” class modern submarines, each consisting of the construction of six. Currently, India is working with French company DCNS for the joint construction project. The advantage of this collaboration is to take the opportunity to the Indian Navy (Naval Shipyard in particular) the transfer of modern technology. As a gradually rising power, India realized the need to create their own warships important needs. However, as in the past has been the purchase of submarines from other countries, so India did not create the submarine experience. Through partnership with DCNS, India will be able to quickly gain experience in the construction of submarines.
reported that “air-independent propulsion” is through the cooperation with French company DCNS one of the technologies into the Indian Navy. This technology allows diesel-electric submarines remain submerged for three weeks. Currently, India is building the first “Scorpene” class submarines for the fifth and sixth submarines have adopted this technology. The second batch of six submarines will also use this technology, and the first four submarines during the first scheduled maintenance will also use this technology. The use of air-independent propulsion technology of the modern “Scorpene” class submarines will provide India with a decent comparable countries Fleet submarine fleet.
India’s first nuclear attack submarines performance close to the Chinese Han-class 091
course, people want to know, there are 14 in the normal operation of the submarine now Why India will focus most of the construction of new submarines. First, India’s neighbors are more than the Navy to provide their modern submarines. Among them, Malaysia and Indonesia already have a modern “Scorpene” class submarines. As the main actors on the Indian Ocean, India wants to keep this position can not be lagging behind other countries.
Second, China continues to improve its existing mainly by modern diesel-electric submarines in the fleet. As China’s rival, India, no other method can only cope with this development, and ensure that when China decided to deploy submarines to the Indian Ocean, India can have a powerful submarine fleet.
Third, the Navy’s emerging as a modern country, India needs to have the ability to build its own submarines, and India does not yet have such a capability. This was also India’s bulk purchase of submarines from other countries the reason. However, through cooperation with the French company DCNS India to ensure a limited time to perform such a task the current level of technology, and its correction by the French.
reported that, in addition to diesel-electric submarines, India also continues to expand its nuclear submarine fleet. Now, India already has the first ballistic missile submarines – “annihilating” sign. India’s goal is to eventually fielded six of the ballistic missile submarine. It is noteworthy that, although these mainly to deter Pakistan’s ballistic missile submarines, but if necessary, India may also be deployed to far to the South China Sea region. In addition, India will continue to build their own nuclear attack submarine fleet. 2011, India will receive Russian “Akula II” class “Cheetah” (Nerpa) nuclear submarine. The submarine will be used to provide training to the Indian crew, and gain experience until the Indian fielding their own attack submarine.
view of India to build their own ballistic missile submarines, and its own domestic nuclear attack submarines will soon be put into operation, the Delhi government will be able to shrink the current Indian and Chinese Type 091 submarine “Han” class submarine gap. “Han” class submarine is trying to build China’s first nuclear attack submarines, so the submarine technology used is outdated and Western modern attack submarines, the Chinese “Han” class submarines are loud. Can be assumed that India’s first level of attack submarines will be the performance of the “Han” class submarines, the same performance. However, as China has not yet started new version of “Han” class submarine related work, so in the field of nuclear attack submarines, India and China will be able to at the same level. And this even make India an opportunity to deploy faster and better than the Chinese attack submarines, submarine to India than China, the future updates and more capable submarines.
