I am going to demonstrate the Hollowness of your claims and expose how you have provide NO proof while EVERYTHING I have said is backed with evidence.
Wow... What a Stupid Logic.. Its named as SSBN for a reason, can SSN fitted with a VLS filled with nuke tipped Ballistic Missile???
WRONG.
Arihant has only fired K15 which is a Hybrid missile. So its not a pure SSBN. Now SSN can fire Cruise missiles and hybrid missiles e.g. the Los ANgles class. So can an SSGN.
More Facts, The Ohio class SSBN was converted to SSN in 1985. Not one, not two , but 8 of them.
So looks like your "logic" is not based on "facts" but on "assumptions" .
no its Fact, what you said about Arihant escorting CBG now and later acting alone is what is called Opinion
Its based on available facts and using logic for deduction to come up with a Theory. Unlike your "logic" which is applied to "assumptions" to come up with fantasy. See the difference ?
No, Arihant was always focused to be developed as SSBN, whic was the requirement its only now Scientists are working to convert it into SSN not the other way around
Its also called Assumption.. show me a single prrof for your claim
WRONG AGAIN.
Advanced Technology Vessel (ATV)
The plan for the Advanced Technology Vessel (ATV) until the late 1980s,
was to build an SSN - a fast-moving deep-
diving nuclear-powered attack submarine, which would hunt surface ships.
INS Aridhaman Nuclear-Powered Ballistic Missile Submarine (SSBN),Next Generation,Indian Navy - AerMech.IN
INS Aridhaman has eight launch tubes in its hump.It can carry up to 24 K-15 Sagarika missile each with a range of 750 km (470 mi) or
8 of the under-development k-4 missiles SLBM
Wow.. you blow my mind... Arihant moves at 24Knots while SSN Akula moves at the speed of 35Knots.. you do the math.
That is because you don't have much of an mind to being with.
Akula has two 32 MW Steam Turbine providing a total of 74 MW power for a displacement of 12 K Tons.
Arihant has a 70 MW Steam Turbine driving its shaft power for a displacement of 6.5 KTons.
Now do the Math if you can .
But unlike you foolish "CLAIMS", I have actually provide REASON for my take. That is called Facts and Logic. Maybe you can start learning now.
nuke subs not must to escort them.. even ssk's can do the job. as of now 2 Akula's along with Scorpene will do the job.
........ A carrier Group has a average speed of 30 nots. SSK can only travel at a maximum speed of 20 Knots.
Second there is only ONE Akula. The Report says Indian Nay has rejected the Second Akula.
THIS is what ASSUMPTIONS does. Expose your lack of knowledge. That means you are WRONG AGAIN.
Only a Nuclear Submarine can acheive a speed of 30 Knots required to keep up with an Carrier Group.
Please do tell me what will Arihant do if it comes in contact with the enemy while escorting the CBG??? how many torpedoes it carries and what are those, and how fast it can move, intercept and destroy them???
Again the Idea of puting a SSBN or saying Arihant is not a SSBN is beyond Stupidity
Ya,... you want to put the 3-5 billion AC in the hands of slow moving under armed SSBN for a attack purposes???
LOL.... it does not matter how many torpedoes Arihant carry. It has far more effective sonar that can track another Submarine. Far better than ANY surface ship. It can also go to the required depth to sniff out any lurking submarine.
It can send out the message about the location of the submarine so that Surface vessels can launch torpedoes and ASH carrying mines, torepedos and depth charges.
Submarine are not for Attack purpose you Moron. They are for Defensive purpose.
1 submarine defending a Carrier group is better than 0 submarine defending it.
Not having ANY submarines as part of the carrier group is what is STUPID. Something you are suggesting.
So much for your "expert opinions"
