Coming soon, an exclusive three-part LiveFist series on the Advanced Technology Vessel (ATV), India’s nuclear submarine programme, with confidential inputs from a former Navy Commodore and Captain who worked on the programme in the mid-1990s. The What, Where, How and Why, plus, why the programme has floundered without result for over three decades, and the wasteful lease of the Russian INS Chakra. This year India is almost certain to finalise the leasing of two Akula-II submarines from Moscow. So starting soon, a comprehensive series on our own SSN programme begins. Stay tuned!
