DRDO builds propulsion system, may be fitted into Scorpene subs

[Sahasranama]

News report is misleading. This "AIP" propulsion is not DRDO made. DRDO has no such R&D, funds and technology.

This DRDO-made "AIP" is actually based on ready-made parts(components) provided by French company. DRDO is "assembler", not "maker" of AIP.

Building such propulsion system(प्रज्वलन संयंत्र) requires heavy decades long research. DRDO never invested in this. If they had, this news would be in National breakthrough similar to ISRO's cryogenic engines. Also, if DRDO had such propulsion, they would rather test it in Indian submarine, not French-made submarine because no nation tests their latest R&D into a foreign system.

Also, i have serious doubts about nuclear tests of 1998. In my opinion, india doesn't have any nuclear bomb. They just imported few bombs from Russia and exploded in ground, to make world fool.

So you are either a Pakistani troll or an Indian Muslim troll. Which one are you ?

Your name is Jai Shree Ram or Jai Shree Allah Nath ?

Great work DRDO.

Alright... edited... Edit your reply too..

Read the article again.

If DRDO developes Kaveri engine for LCA, they won't go around the world saying - "We made Kaveri engine, but we don't know how to put it inside LCA's body. Please help us".

DRDO's AIP propulsion is not home-made. It is based on foreign design & help. Government is covering up DRDO's imported stuff by spreading "Lies". If AIP is home-made, why DRDO is not testing it on Indian submarine? What they fear? (Another reason is - A foreign design of AIP is not compatible with local submarines)

It shows they built it using foreign design, hence they need continuous foreign help to fit it in French submarine. DRDO is not sure how design of AIP works, because it might blow up. DRDO doesn't know "how to fit it inside submarine" because they didn't design it.

I never saw Boeing going around world saying - "Please help us fit engines inside aircrafts". DRDO has become a joke!

DRDO has been working on their version of AIP since 2003, long before the materialization of Scorpene deal, and the prototype is operational since 2009.

Its because of people like you that some people feel misrepresented.
Sure he can be a Pak troll but if he has a different view does that specifically makes him an Indian Muslim? Think before you type.

BTW I do think he is wrong.

If he feels he is misrepresented due to me, let him do his best to ally his fears ....... don't expect me to change to accomodate your prejudice or his.

His desperate attempt to sound like a Hindutvadi nut does indicate an ulterior motive. Time will prove me right. Wait and watch.

YuP. The scorpene were conceived as non AIP.... They offered us but we have made it and will fit it instead.

DRDO Developing Air Independent Propulsion for Indian Submarines


Defence Minister A K Antony told parliament in written reply to a question that Defence Research Development Organisation (DRDO)'s Ambernath-based Naval Material Research Laboratory (NMRL) is working on a technology demonstration project for "Development of Land-based Prototype for AIP" for submarine propulsion.

With the AIP, the vulnerability of a submarine for detection by enemy warships can be reduced by increasing its underwater endurance in dived conditions.

Normally, diesel electric generators are used by conventional submarines to charge its batteries that provide propulsion power when the submarine is in dived conditions.

To run the generators, the submarine has to surface for taking in air and throwing out the exhaust. Using the AIP system, a submarine can charge batteries without surfacing.

The Scorpene submarines were conceived as non-AIP vessels, but French firm DCNS has offered to fit the last two submarines under the six-vessel project with AIP and the offer is still under the Indian Navy's consideration.

Your effort to convince this expert is going to remain futile. Better Ignore him. You must have got an idea from his posts by now.

Lot of trolls are joining under Indian flags these days.

Take a look at his name bro.

DRDO developing onboard equipment monitoring system for submarines - The Hindu


Our technology is proven on a land-based prototype. A submarine-based prototype plug weighing nearly 300 tonnes is now being worked on. The French MESMA AIP being offered for the Scorpenes is an old system with a steam turbine,” he said. The DRDO AIP can be reconfigured for the second line of future conventional submarines under P75 I as well, he added.

He's a false flag troll man.

This was the reason why I was asking why not build the next tranche of submarines under an indigenous DRDO design?

I'm not talking about his prejudice or mine, I'm talking about yours.
For all we know he IS a Pak troll false flagging all over the place that doesn't give you the right to put Indian muslims in the same boat as the Pakistanis.
And again, his quotes about the AIP are wrong.
