The Indian Navy will operate a mix of nuclear and conventional diesel-electric submarines in the future to deal with the threats around the country, according to a senior government official’s statement on Monday.
The announcement comes against the backdrop of the Australian Navy’s decision to cancel its USD 90 billion deal with France for building conventional submarines and opt for building nuclear boats only.
For the Australian Navy, the threat is more in the open oceans and the areas around that area. The decision to scrap a conventional submarine deal makes sense for them. While for us, the need is to tackle threats both near our coastal areas as well as in the open seas. That is why the Indian Navy would build a fleet which would include both nuclear as well as conventional submarines, the official said.
