Recently, there has been a lot of excitement in India, and Defense Minister Rajnath Singh said that our Indian Navy will build six aircraft carriers in the future, which shows that we want to compete with the Chinese Navy with more "big ships". But this cowhide blows loudly, and it is not easy to achieve!
Now, India's two aircraft carriers, "Vikrant" and "Vikramaditya", are like two children in the family, and they have to share a basket of toys -- MiG-29 carrier-based aircraft. The problem is that this basket of toys is not enough to score, only 39 pieces in total, and you have to count those who are "sick" from time to time, and there are even fewer who can play. In this way, the aircraft carrier will either go out "with a half-empty stomach", or one will have a good time, and the other will have to stare dryly.
Originally, I bought it again when I lacked toys, but the MiG-29K that India bought before, like a porcelain doll, fell 6 in a few years, and the navy was full of grievances, so buy it again? Difficult! So, India took a look at France's "Rafale M" and its own LCA, the idea is good, but the reality is skinny.
Although the "Rafale M" is good, the orders in France are lined up to the horizon, even if India places an order, and when the plane arrives, the daylily will be cold. Besides, the elevator of the "Vikrant" can't fit this big guy, and if you don't change the aircraft carrier, you will change the plane, and you have to make a big deal to change it.
As for LCA, it is home-made, and it has deep feelings, but this kid is disgusted by his own air force, and the navy can count on it to go to the sky and into the sea?
This has come and gone, and India's aircraft carrier dream money is not in place, so people are so anxious that they stomp their feet. The British Royal Navy also has similar troubles, there are aircraft carriers, and there are not enough planes, but people are poor in money, and India is poor in planning.
In the final analysis, aircraft carriers are not paper-paste, they have to be piled up with real money, and they must have supporting "belongings". India's move is a steady move or a big step to pull eggs, we ordinary people will move a small bench and watch while eating melon seeds. Ladies and gentlemen, do you think India's aircraft carrier dream can be realized? Tell us your opinion in the comment area, let's chat together!
