Or imagine the kind of amazing artificial coral reef it would make in the Arabian Sea!

Well that's exactly what it would turn into if they ever venture near Pakistan!

Maldives and Mauritius have huge indian populations. Sri Lanka and India have historical ties. It has nothing to do with strength. And I can make out you just googled 'fifth fleet'. In then end they aren't gonna leave from bahrain. And they aren't gonna be less superior just because you think so. They are much better connected with data links between ships. And their ships work very well in coordination. They have a huge number of landing craft with marines. They have the aegis systems. You think with 8 destroyers we are even comparable to them? (It's like the PN. What they think is a F22 frigate, we would at most call a corvette. Infact our Kamortas are 500 tons heavier). Our navy has a huge number of ships under construction. And we will eventually be as good as them. But for now we aren't even close.

There is absolurtely no need to compare IN and USN. In the IOR they are partners and not competitors.

Dont be surprised if in near future our warships make visits to Diego Grcia and berth there.

Well that's exactly what it would turn into if they ever venture near Pakistan!

Why don't you enlighten us with your delusions of an Indian CBG?

Google it for yourself . I am not here to teach ABCD to fanbois who spout BS like they can take out a Carrier as if it was some patrol vessel.

In 1965 INS Vikrant, spent the war in port.

In 1971 Bay of Bengal - sinking gun boats & hiding form 2/3rd of the more capable Pakistani Navy (western fleet)

So your rants about CBG is pretty much nonsense!!

With the advent of anti-AC Dong Feng based missiles don't be surprised WHEN we aqurie a few and blow holes in your myth of invincibility!

Come Historical Facts need to be understood.
In 1971, the IN Gunboats and Missile boats set Karachi Harbor on fire and sank the PN fleet elements, there was no need for a carrier there since the K-boats were sufficient.. The Carrier was used to enforce the blockade on (the then) East Pakistan to make sure that no reinforcements reached and most importantly to ensure that no body escaped; leading to the rounding up of approx. 93000 POWs. If there was no carrier there for interdiction, there might have been less POWs.
