15K/40K tons or 3/8 complete! It is near completion
So if it is 50% complete, it will be very near completion
If it is 60% complete, it will be very very near completion and so on, right?

I guess it is because of the coming election and the independence day that indian politicians want to show off their "indigenous' islandless flat top structure and to beef up the cheers!

Chinese buy it from Ukraine and it is complete at first step. No percentage wise completion like 15K/40K tons or 3/8 complete! It is near completion
So if it is 50% complete, it will be very near completion

etc. right

2018 is it's commission date? China may have two nuclear-power super-carriers by then...

No, China won't.

And this thread is not about China. If you don't have anything to contribute on topic, please stay away and don't start a flame war.

Does that make this launch or the commission date any less significant for the Indian Navy? - it doesn't so STFU. By the time you get your so called 2 nuclear powered carriers - the USN has operated 10's of them from decades so just F off.

Why you Chinese pop up on Indian thread? Did any body asked you about what China will have by 2018?

China May have this and that ...... right?

So bug off. come with full information. No body here is Interested in you Chinese May have.....etc etc.

We will have Hypersonic brahmos with 1000 KM by then. Your Nuclear power Super career will be scared to go to high see like your super duper Nuke Subs which has never left chinese cost since the induction.

To all those brainless Chinese Trollers who have contributed on this thread displaying your bare assed hatred and jealousy towards India.

First of all, try to learn - if possible and if your highly inflated egos CAN - the MEANING OF "Launch" in nautical terms the WORLD OVER. For your puerile and dimwit trolling brains, a LAUCH does not mean comissioning. Even in China, nautical terminology by world's shipping companies would term a hull (with a lot of work to do inside), as a launch.

That said, we know the difference between launch and commissioning and while your phallus measuring vitriol looks at demeaning the IAC from day one, we have come this far with lot of hurdles. And yes, we take it that there will be more hurdles on the way but each day has been and is a new day in the context of the IAC.

Now Chinese trolling kids, learn something from even our Pakistani neighbors who have congratulated us on this forum and this (and other threads) . If not, chew on some lessons of decency and self respect which is lacking on your part.

I hope by 2018 Pakistan will launch its first indigenous fishing boat...

To do what?? We have procured a carrier killer before there even was a carrier to kill, know what it means ???

Indian waving the flag of his former colonial master? Funny...

OK sir, good luck.

He probably thinks you will have 3.

Well for you it must be a cakewalk considering the expertise you have for nuclear powered subs.

But tell me something; why doesn't any US shipyard make conventional carriers for export?

There are navies like Thailand, Brazil etc who want smaller carriers with fighters on them.

Also cash rich countries like KSA and Qatar would love getting their hands on a 30,000+ tonne carrier with jets on them.

Any ideas?

The number of carriers built by Japan even larger than destroyers India have built. Design by local, what a joke!

What are you trying to say?

And how come you're comparing Japanese with us?

I thought you were er.... having a rock between you and them

Seriously man, at least have some dignity in commenting..
