Default Indian Navy to commission Akula-II

Here's a story about it.

http://intellibriefs.blogspot.com/20...-sub-deal.html

So this was true after all. :hmm: I wonder what weapons the Russians will sell to India to be used on this Akula.

EDIT - I wonder how much truth there is here. It says it will be armed with nuclear cruise missiles with a range over 1,000 Km.
