Okay as far as my last posts on ATV
And now this… the ATV is about to near its completion
You know what this mean….India can build any amount of nuclear Submarines at its will any time it wants.
If it want it will throw down a array of nuclear armed nuclear submarines on the ocean floor of china.
Just patiently waiting like a sniper for his prey to emerge…
I am too enthusiastic i guess
But they three are already on their way
And i think i have mentioned about Shaurya which is a silo based missile they can be used as a SLBM (Submarine launched ballistic missiles).
Well the good news does not end here.It gets better.Here is the catch.
The main hitch ( i read it some where ) in making the ATV was the integration of PWR (Pressurized water reactor) in other words the nuclear reactor, small enough to fit into the submarine. Now with that done we can use the same technology to power a aircraft carrier .
We currently have a aircraft carrier being made in India here is a link
So what i mean is once this project is finished we can integrate the PWR inside a aircraft carrier and whola …. a nuclear powered Aircraft carrier.
I know it not so simple but then ,,, I am so happy.
I wonder what they will name the new nuclear powered submarines.
All the names have been taken up i guess.Lets see
NEW DELHI, Feb 12 (Reuters) – India’s project to construct three nuclear-powered submarines at a southern India naval base is near completion, officials said on Thursday. “Things are in the final stage now,” A.K. Antony, India’s defence minister, told reporters in the southern city of Bangalore.
