IN P8Is and SU-30 Escort off the coast of Pakistan

[Caprxl]

Lol, not their SSN, that be double Eid. I am just speculating here, no insider info.

PS: don't think they have a sub rescue vehicle yet, keep tab on USN one from the Gulf.

Hmmm, if what we are hearing is true & whispers are correct, I think next 36 hours will be a good time frame to monitor IN activities.
Consider it Divine Help/Intervention from ALLAH SWT.

I wonder how they would be able to hide a loss of whole damn Sub & her crew. It is not a single Su30 & two of her pilots whose families can be managed.

Looks like the stupid IN lost another sub, keep your eyes open for a lot of IN personnel dying from drownings if the bodies are recovered or COVID, if they are not.

BTW Area of concern, 200km from Indian coast

A sub is too significant to hide...it would be stupid if they attempted such a thing.

It is. AND that is the worrying part.

I'm waiting to see what dog and pony show IN puts up, as well as all those who were going blue in the face saying "Kekra is useless"

That is an interesting point. How can a sub be used against a potential oil exploration location?was it just on an intelligence gathering mission to see what Pakistan was doing there?

I feel lost...what's the significance of an IN submarine lurking around(and possibly sunk) around Kekra 1? Did I miss something? Can someone fill me in plz?

That's what I was thinking. If that is the case, they have done the satellite / aerial recon and now need to recon underwater.

US SpecOps subs have gone around and put phone taps on under water sea cables, but the depth of where Kekra is may be too much for a single hull SSK.

I think more than recon was going on here, which backfired.

If they were looking for construction, most of it is within 50m of surface.
