Akula class nuke subs (remamed nerpa in india)
 
Nice, but these would remain in the category of 'fancy toys' as NO Indian politician has the balls to give the green light to make use of them in case of another Mumbai type attack. Period!
:pop:

No its Akula II


TOI is full of crap. Nerpa is a SSN, it can't fire a ballistic missile. Nuclear triad will complete with the induction of Arihant...

It can fire cruise missiles from the torpedo tubes.

The Akula Class carry up to 12 Granit submarine-launched cruise missiles. The missiles are fired from the 533mm torpedo launch tubes. Granit (Nato designation: SS-N-21 Sampson) has a range of about 3,000km and delivers a 200kt warhead.

SSN Akula Class (Bars Type 971) - Naval Technology
 
The Arihant class of SSBNs is what will complete our nuclear triad. Not the Akula-II, which is an attack sub, or SSN. NOT an SSBN. This was explicitly mentioned in the article posted in the other thread about this sub.

Thats not what Russians says and if its true then its not a SSN...
Also i have a question, even if Nerpa can fire a ballistic missile, what difference does it makes ? Russia is not giving us a ballistic missile and we cannot fit any missile in the tubes of nerpa...either we make a missile which can be used in Nerpa or just use the cruise missile but that won't help India in completing the triads.

We have an option to buy it after its leasing period is over, and obviously our K-15 SLBMs will be compatible with Nerpa.
 
since it is reconstructed and repaired as per Indian standards, so it is possible to have ballistic missile storage and launch facility to do sagarika tests.
 
As usual, TOIlet media has let us down again with pathetic journalism. Our nuclear triad isn't complete. Nerpa is leased to train the IN sailors in operating nuclear submarine for INS Arihant nuke submarines. I doubt a lease submarine could be ever effectively used in war.

However taking this opportunity, I'd say that to command a powerful triad we need a powerful and pro-nation government which this government is not. It has to either leave or be forced to leave.
