They will have double the launch tubes for SLBMs....i.e increase from 4 tubes to 8. The reactor will also likely be uprated from current design and be heavier. Other than those, we have to see. Thing with Arihant class was it started out as SSN concept and it was decided later to make it SSBN...

How much does Indonesia earn on average each year from this export?

=================================================================== Well, its about time I feel to start a thread for SSBN (Arihant class) program of Indian Navy. I have put this thread in strategic forces for now given the overall higher relevance to that paradigm. To start, here is brief...

Well if some sort of coup or renegade thing goes on with armenian military, that just means deal is off the table. ...Azeris can simply proceed, I doubt russians want to get in their way (force level commited for peacekeeping is certainly not enough). Russia after all already has done enough to...

It's a pretty interesting channel, thanks for bringing to my attention! I am not altogether surprised US has developed something like this in the 90s...essentially if you are able to saturate an area with enough sensors, you can discriminate all kind of things much more readily since you are...

CSC replace both iroquois and halifax. 15 ships to replace 4 + 12. Yes this was RCN inertia from cold war ending and thus going into more niche role in NATO....with frigate only. More support role basically....further entrenched in the thinking of future conflict being like WoT by US or stuff...

He cuts past all the BS and gets to the root of the matter. Democrat opinion on that depends on what kind of democrat they are. Neo lib type has little to no chance taking this stuff on board....much like neo-cons do not for equivalents of this guy on their end (say paleo-cons or rooted...
