  • Indian Navy consider n propulsion for carriers

    The Indian Navy's design bureau is favourably considering nuclear propulsion for the second, and possibly a third indigenous aircraft carrier.Although the final decision is yet to be taken, reliable sources told India (www.indiastrategic.in) that the navy and the country's nuclear scientists have drawn sufficient experience from their success in installing nuclear propulsion in Arihant, the country's first SSBN (ship submersible ballistic nuclear) submarine (or nuclear-propelled, nuclear-armed submarine), which is currently undergoing sea trials, and that is encouraging them to replicate the technology for indigenous aircraft carriers.
