    India to Send Second Kilo Class Submarine to Russia for Refit in May

    Had your claim been even 10% true, China would have had atleast a 50% market share in Submarine Repair Business of Kilo Class,the world's most numerous active modern SSK. But I don't see even Iran or Algeria turning to China for their Kilo repairs.

    US approves sale of 22 Guardian drones to India

    Will you use B52 in place of P8I for Maritime duties? The difference is similar here. Avenger or any other Armed UAV will come as and when IAF and IA press for it. IN Needs are limited to this.
