India Learned One Way How to Sink a $3 Billion Dollar Submarine: Leave a Hatch Open
And it nearly was sunk.nationalinterest.org
The Indian navy left a hatch open on a submarine and nearly caused it to sink.
Training 70 years ago, has little impact on training today if it is not maintained or updated
I can't figure what you mean re: 70 years. The the Indian Navy was and remains the the keeper of the most of the Indian Ocean. They have the the 6th largest navy on the planet. They (as the Royal Indian Navy) ran those waters for 300 years before that even.
They can and will plug the Malacca from their islands there.
I should not have responded with any reference to the British so I would not be dissed by the Trampoline. Live and LearnIndia's navy is quite competitive as well.
What "ocean going drones"?Meh. Easy meat for ocean-going drones. This is a classic example of planning for the last war.
The US and China are both developing unmanned naval vessels both surface and submarines. The ones I have seen are small for naval vesselsWhat "ocean going drones"?

Stealth UAVs Could Give China’s Type-076 Assault Carrier More Firepower

Cool. More targets for the U.S. Navy.
In 2015 when Ashton Carter was SecDef India and the U.S. signed a strategic partnership agreement that gave USA armed forces full access to Indian armed forces bases and facilities to include actions by the U.S. against a third party. China is of course third party #1.I can't figure what you mean re: 70 years. The the Indian Navy was and remains the the keeper of the most of the Indian Ocean.

And they are designed almost uniformly as sensor platforms, though some of the submersible ones are intended to carry an ASW torpedo.The US and China are both developing unmanned naval vessels both surface and submarines. The ones I have seen are small for naval vessels
The submersible one that made the news could have carried 500 kg of RDX, enough to put paid to almost any existing ship. It's also got a composite hull that MAD and sonar can't see worth damn.
Hence why they have their eyes set on Taiwan
they are improvingIn 2018 the PLA Navy sub that had been tracked continuously by the Japanese for two dayze and nights finally surfaced, showed the flag and returned to base. If it had been wartime the flag would have been white.
Are China’s Nuclear Subs Too Noisy for Their Own Good?
An incident in the East China Sea has observers wondering if China’s nuke boats have a noise problem.
JAN 29, 2018
In 2003, all 70 Chinese sailors aboard a Chinese diesel electric submarine died during a training accident. The submarine reportedly drifted for days before a fishing boat came upon the lifeless vessel. Regardless, the fact that Japanese forces were able to track China’s latest nuclear attack submarine continuously for two days does not exactly instill confidence in the submarine’s abilities.

Chinese subs continue to do what they need to do, ie, improve.
It is the AIP submarines which are among the best now, they can last I believe 2 and a half weeks underwaterthey are improving
a lot of people think it is their Nuc. subs we need to watch but with the new developments in batteries the newer Diesel electric subs only have to surface and run their diesel eng. once every three or four days and not for that long to recharge and can go a very long distance on their batteries
have a nice night

You I believe are a good source of Naval information so help me out please.CCP is constructing a 300 meter aircraft carrier that is expected to have the CATOBAR system of catapult launching and an aircraft recovery system of arrestor gear, meaning it should be able to carry planes that are more heavily armed than the existing two carriers that are something like 270 meters long at the waterline and their ski ramps.
The CCP snafu however is that Chinese still can't build a nuclear powered carrier so this sucker will have a small operational range and reach while relying heavily on replenishment at sea. Chinese engineers are moreover still struggling over whether it can use advanced electric drive, ie, integrated electric propulsion. And the engineers are nervous about the Type-003 EMALS electro-magnetic aircraft launch system given the headaches it caused on the new Ford class carrier of the USN. Nuclear powered Ford btw is 317 meters and ready now to kick arse at any time.
So Your Beloved CCP Boyz in Beijing and their PLA Naval engineers have hit a brick wall on this one. They're in over their head trying to make that one single and meaningless propaganda and psyche ops carrier that approaches the Ford.
Hey I was Army although my kid brother went Navy and served on the Big John CV 67 in ASW and then later on a nuclear repair flying team that dealt with emergencies on subs wherever it was happening.You I believe are a good source of Naval information so help me out please.
I read in Janes within the last year that some or all or new carriers are now using three wires instead of four. Some of that reasoning was the arresting gear took up way more room below decks. So eliminating one gave them more space. But I do not know if the new EMALS (i literaley laughed aloud after typing that and you know why).. if you know how much space was saved there? More aircraft?
