Navy alive to China threat, says Lanba
Admiral Lanba responding to questions at the annual press conference ahead of Navy Day
China’s submarine deployment
China has deployed submarines in Indian Ocean for anti-piracy controls supposedly
Admiral’s response to the deployment
It is rather an odd task to give to a submarine as it is not the most ideal platform to do anti-piracy patrols
Backdrop
China has actively deployed ships and submarines in the Indian Ocean in the name of anti-piracy measures and the frequency has steadily gone up. Several U.S. military officers too have expressed similar views in the past
Conventional carrier
After much deliberation, the Indian Navy has decided to go ahead with a conventionally powered reactor instead of a nuclear-powered one for its second Indigenous Aircraft Carrier (IAC-II)
