CONFIRMED: India to build its first foreign Naval Base in Seychelles

[Capt.Popeye]

US doesn't need Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Its got Diego Garcia.

BTW, its nice to have listening stations all over Indian ocean and Oman etc. but you've gotta know that in case of a full fledge war, these would be taken out probably on the first day, either through diplomacy or muscle.

If it is gonna be through "diplomacy", then it can be done much earlier; even before the Station is set up.
And if it is gonna be by "muscle", then that involves declaring War on the host country. Now, just fancy you or anybody else (like China) declaring War on Seychelles or Oman or Madagascar or Reunion or Mauritius.

How?

With a cork bung in the bottle-neck (or the strategic quivalent), thats how.

Let me get this straight, a navy who would be facing near extinction within days of the start of a conflict, if not hours, is going to venture away from its shores to attack a third party sovereign nation? Pakistan has neither the diplomatic nor "muscular" means to do anything of the sort- unless of course you are threatening the Seychelles with nuclear holocaust.

Ahah...... the ever-present, omnipotent "Atmi-Bums" again, hunh ?

because India has worlds highest number of poors...what right we have to go for bases...simple

More than 70 % Indian population have nothing to eat and they are building bases and stations all around the world , A good way to waste money . India prefers other countries citizens more than its own people , that's why building cool fancy towers so called parliaments ,bridges and god know what else in other countries while there people have nothing . No offence

But a full blown base there would ensure that we are the kings of Indian Ocean.


Only Building bases do not make you the king of the Indian ocean , You should also act and look like one , which doesn't seem so ....

You sound dumb. Maybe you're laughing at your own stupidity. These listing posts can be taken out easily if the need arises.

That's how you trip, underestimating your enemy. I don't really mind. It's better to be the underdog and win than to be the top dog and lose.

If the need for taking out any Indian asset anywhere in the Indian ocean is felt, it can be taken out without much difficulty with sub launched cruise missiles with conventional warheads. But if you want to get hit with nukes so bad that you can't help but bring them into every conversation then I guess we can oblige you with that as well. We're very compassionate like this.

Good luck with trying to keep the chinese navy out of the indian ocean.

none taken because your post is on the similar tone that is generally shared by members who know nothing about how nations budget is prepared and executed...so no offence!!

We need a naval base in Vietnam to station our destroyer and SSBN. Who agrees ?

May be not a base which will push chinese to build one in pakistan, but yeah port visits to Vietnam by advanced Indian naval platforms is must.
We can't claim IOR in the manner SCS is being claimed but for India the idea is more or less same, India will claim IO but through peaceful commanding cooperation.

There are countless number of beggars sleeping beside garbage bins and drainages in Washington DC, does that make that country should spend on defence and space? jar head

Let the losers and fake flag guys cry.
India is growing and no one can stop it.

Pakistan is one of the few countries in the world nowadays that still have famines and along with North Korea still require food aid. Please, you are in no position to talk about 'people having nothing to eat'.

This one is your latest famine last year:

Thar famine | Pakistan Today

Yeah as if there is no poverty in Pak,40% 50% of Pakistanis lives under poverty,sell kidneys for money,you have pathetic ranking in world Food index lower than India apart from HDI and literacy level etc etc.

So whenever India even launches a satellite,your foolish media cries Poverty,Don't get befooled by your Jahil fat media anchors,who most of the time high on conspiracy theories and spew nonsense about Poverty,as a means to hide their inferiority complex.

Actually it's you who had been drugged with Bollywood. Wake up. The flying comment was for other Indian bases. Do you have reading comprehension problems that you didn't pick up the sub launched cruise missile comments?
