There are four applicants left for the construction of submarines for India

62
The number of applicants for construction for the Indian Navy of six submarines with an air-independent power plant under the “Project-75 (I)” program was reduced to four. According to Jane's Defense Weekly, the Japanese consortium Mitsubishi Heavy Industries / Kawasaki Heavy Industries and the Spanish company Navantia did not respond to the request for information sent by 19 on July 2017 of October to the deadline set for October 16.

However, four other manufacturers, including the French Naval Group (formerly DCNS), the German ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems, the Swedish Saab Kockums and the TsDB MT Rubin (through Rosoboronexport), presented their responses to the request.



There are four applicants left for the construction of submarines for India


Within the framework of the “Project-75 (I)” program, whose cost is estimated at 500 billion rupees (7,81 billion dollars), it is planned to build six submarines with an air-independent power plant capable of hitting ground targets at the shipyards of one of the Indian private companies. .

According to plans, over the next few months, the Department of Defense and the Indian Navy command will evaluate the responses received, primarily in terms of technology transfer opportunities to Indian companies. At the same time, requests for information will be sent to selected national manufacturing companies in order to assess their technical, financial and production capabilities.

After the formation of a joint venture with one of the foreign developers, Indian companies will present their proposals to the Indian Defense Ministry. According to the results of the evaluation of the conditions, cost and delivery time, as well as the accompanying offset program, the winner of the competition will be selected. Testing NNS is not planned.

Currently, the Indian Navy has 13 submarines in its arsenal, although the “Perspective Development Plan” fleet»Provided to have 24, passes TSAMTO

            The great Indian submarine fleet is famous all over the world. India’s Navy submarines plow the entire world’s oceans and regularly break open the ice of the Arctic, carpet the north pole of the earth (using elephants, of course, which are part of the crew).

            Despite the monstrous number of submarines, incidents are rare, but there are:

So we are hoping for an Indian contract, although it seems to me that it’s in vain ..

        Just the opposite. For the Indians, and even for their money, they can finish VNSU. After which our fleet will go. It's like with a variable thrust vector for the Su-30, if not for the Indians, it might not have appeared on our dryers.

              And according to the Su-57, together with the joint development and production, they also needed technology for 5th generation aircraft, otherwise they will go off the bat.

Its industrial design has been created. Of the principal technologies, it has been implemented to produce hydrogen from diesel fuel, create an electrochemical generator that extracts electric current from hydrogen and removes "waste of life activity of the first cycle.

I don’t know about the percentages, but with everything that I listed ten percent of the total price of the boat, 700-800 pln. euros, you can’t do it and no one would bother with such a trifle, especially since the Indians want all the technology and their own production. There are potentially billions of dollars for Israel, with the sale of patents, technologies, on-site production and warranty services for their systems.

    What is the use of such participation in competitions - only expenses. Until they build it for the Russian Navy, test it and present it in iron, no one will order who needs a pig in a poke anyway.
    There is indeed an option to sell in advance for a penny and with the transfer of all technologies, but than such a contract - it’s better not any.
