c*****y 发帖数: 1028 | 1 The news of China’s new Aircraft Carrier, who is likely to be named the “
Shandong” created a buzz in Indian media. The smell of propaganda can be
felt from miles away in this scenario. The news came after one Chinese
scholar accused India’s naval development by comparing it with Indian
economy. Another statement reflect extreme over confidence without analyzing
the ground reality of the condition of their own forces. Chinese scholars
are targeting Indian naval development repeatedly, but that should not be
the issue for India.

Chinese media wrote that “Economic Development comes before naval buildup”
.The statement might be the conclusion of the defence spending India carry
out to modernise and expand its defence equipments. Indian economy is
currently seventh largest economy in the world and developing at 7%
approximately per year. While the defence budget of India is getting hike by
almost 10-12% every year. The incriment in the defence budget is enabling
India to spend more on defence acquisition and development.
After the new government in power, the defence acquisition and development
has gained speed. India is commissioning almost one indigenously built ship
in every 2 months gap of different class and category. India is developing
its own destroyers, submarines, mine-sweepers and even aircraft carriers.
The technological development in the naval vessels are touching new
milestones by every induction and commissioning. China’s deliberate
attempts to spread propaganda’s and fuss about it’s new weapon system is
not working.

Chinese media should understand that before spreading any type of propaganda
, they must check their own equipment. The new aircraft carrier is still in
building phase and the carrier bourne fighter project in which China
showcased its J-15 Black Shark aircraft which is the copy of Russian Su-33.
J-15 Black Shark is already facing problem in being operational, China could
have inducted and made the aircraft operational by deploying it on its
first aircraft carrier Liaoning.

While on the other hand, India has experience of decades in operating
aircraft carriers. After the retirement of INS Virat, Indian Navy has only
one aircraft carrier INS Vikramaditya. INS Vikramaditya is a highly
sophisticated aircraft carrier supported by a floatilla which can tear a
whole small navy apart. Indian Navy will soon fill the place of INS Virat by
INS Vikrant which will be the most technologically advance aircraft carrier
. INS Vikrant will have cutting edge sensor suits and the selection of the
aircraft which will be on-board is still has to be done. Indian Navy is
planning to deploy the most advance carrier bourne fighter available on the
deck of INS Vikrant.

Indian Navy is preparing itself for any challenge by China and will reply in
more than adequate manner to any hostility. Indian Navy is also developing
it’s anti-submarine fleet by inducting highly advance vessels to counter
humongous yet outdated Chinese submarine fleet. Recently India tested its
long range super sonic cruise missile “Brahmos” which can be used as anti
ship missile and currently none of the air defence except Barak-8 which is
only available to India and Israel can intercept and destroy those missiles.
Brahmos will present extreme threats to Chinese naval vessels and its naval
establishments. |
