Yes but I think the decade long build you are referring to isn't even a DDG its a FFG the Shivalik class
Oh my... I didn't know that. I was referring to the Kolkata DDG. Amended my original comment accordingly.
If India took 10 years to finish a mere frigate, with most systems (sensors, weapons, munitions) imported, including the steel used for her hull, then I can't even begin to imagine how long it would take to finish the Vikrant.
Anyone care to guess? I'd say 25 years is the minimum. I think realistically Vikrant will not achieve full operational status until 2040.
How could India have fallen so far behind China?
