INS Vikrant - Indian dream flagship
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 чер 2024
- INS Vikrant is an aircraft carrier that is about to enter service with the Indian Navy. The first ship of this class, built by India on its own. The aircraft carrier was named Vikrant (Sanskrit for "courageous") - the same name was given to the very first aircraft carrier of the Indian Navy, received from the UK in the 1960s.
INS Vikrant is the second modern Indian aircraft carrier, the first carrier now operational is the INS Vkiramaditya. Soon, India will start the construction of the third new indigenous aircraft carrier - INS Vishal.
The aircraft carrier was built by the Cochin Shipyard Limited (CSL) in Kerala. The work on it began in 1999 and developed and launched in 2013. After a long way of tests, improvements and sea trials it was comissined in 2022. Total cost of the project is approximately US $2.9 billion.
INS Vikrant is 262 m (860 ft) long and has a displacement of about 45,000 t. It's air wing will consist of 36 aircraft, including helicopters (Kamov Ka-31, HAL Dhruv or MH-60R) and airplanes (MiG-29K or Rafale-M).

I liked the
documentary, but as an ex sailor
who served on the first INS Vikrant, the commentary states that INS Vikrant became a maritime museum,which is incorrect.
It broke my heart when INS vikrant was broken up, and aold as
scrap in Mumbai.
Jai Hind
Yeah It played a prominent role in 1971 Indo Pak war and should have been preserved in a museum but the metal scrap was purchased by motorcycle manufacturing company Bajaj and they created a motorcycle out of the scrap and named vikrant
Thankyou so much sir for your service
With $melly $tinky Indians $hitting all over the ship, the whole ship became a high level bio hazard threat to any living being therefore the ship has to be demolished, destroyed and reduced to untouched and inaccessible scrap and kept in a complete isolated state of existence to protect the future of human race.
First Vikrant was a "museum" docked near Gateway of India till it got scrapped.
We can find the remains of OLD vikrant in "Bajaj Vikrant" bike😊
Nice looking Carrier...OUTSTANDING India!
Yeah, it's really making us proud. Wait for our aircrafts like TEDBF,AMCA and trjas mk2.... they are gonna be really damn beautiful and amazing

You guys should be proud, its a big achievement to have a aircraft carrier.
Congratulations.
@@Toptop80thanks man. We've built everything; stealth destroyers, frigates, Corvettes, conventional subs, nuclear ballistic subs. The only thing left is nuclear attack subs
@@Toptop80 The third one is gonna launch next year, where are you from ?
@@suryanshsagar2677 Bruh what ? We've 2 nuclear attack submarines, INS Arihant and INS Arighat
From being the richest country on the planet after plundering and looted by British for 150 yrs India came to this position from nothing to this in just 76yrs of independence I'm so proud of my great country
Nicely researched video. About the third carrier though, its likely that the plans for a 65,000 ton heavy carrier have been moved to next decade. Current plans seem to be building a sister ship of INS Vikrant. That way it can be built quickly and at lesser cost. Funds are also needed to fund 11 other classes of warships and 5 other submarine classes all being built or designed in India right now.
As it is Indian Navy gets the smallest share of the Indian military budget as the lion's share goes to the Army and Air Force (because primary concern is China and Pakistan just across the border from us). So funds for a 65,000 ton Vishal class carrier will only be available in next decade.
Yes! I was going to post this as well. The Indian navy has decided to go for a repeat order of the Vikrant (sister ship)
And due to the experience gained, it can be completed in 8 years with minimal budget overruns. Vishal will come after that.
Navy seems more focused on submarines this time
Yeah. just make a sister ship… a follow-up class should be in development in 2 decades.
@@OperationEndGame Less than a decade tbh

Great effort and well worth it. It’s a lesson to be learned for India. From Australia.
You forget main one point.
India have faced senctions from 1999 - 2007, after all those things, India bounced back & completed everything by itself.
I think you mean Sanctions not sections, also none of those affected ship building in anyway
Sanction didn’t effect the ship building capabilities of India but it almost destroyed the aircraft manufacturing industry no wonder Tejas took so long to take off the ground (The main been cut off from its Engines )
@@wallingnaga6563 Sanctions were only for 3 to 4 years though and they had like 8 engines to use. They could have continued flight tests with that but they barely did

This is a great achievement for India, and the country has enormous potential. Just bare in mind that if India becomes too successful, it may end up on the 🇺🇸 's hit list! We all know how they despise a competitor, in a world they believe they own!! 🤔

The third aircraft carrier IAC 2 have been confirmed by the indian navy. It will likely be a sister ship of IAC 1 but with a larger body, increase fire power, flat top deck, and a EMALS Catobar system. It may be around 50,000-60,000 tone catagory.
Definitely wont have a EMALS CATOBAR. Its confirmed to be a STOBAR with the same tech as vikrant with only minor modifications
@@roshanjohnson7467 its not confirmed for stobar. US and india are currently working on development of indigenous EMALS CATOBAR, and also the budget set for the second carrier is around 5 billion dollars, and out of that 5 billion, around 1 billion will be used on the EMALS CATOBAR system. Even if they change there plan, then also its garunteed that it will have a flat deck, hence it will have a CATOBAR system. Also it wont be just an upgraded version, even though it will be a sister ship, the displacement will be larger than INS Vikrant (around 55000-60000 ton), with more indigenousness contents, more firepower, more space for fighters and even better systems.
@@roshanjohnson7467 lol def gonna have EMALS CATOBAR trump already gave the tech lol

Pride of India.... True, as it clearly narrated, it may not be the biggest or most modern or most lethal, but Truly Indian... There are only 6 countries in the world that have this capability...
Lets hope that if China ever goes to war again with india, the aircraft carriers are better than what the chinese have
Yes proud of what ? under powered with unreliable mig29k that too one squadron...we require at least 3 ready ...limited range... it is best consolation prize,,,,
@@manisherande4568 And which country in the Indian ocean is a threat to India that we need '3 squadron of mig29k'? Moreover, The carrier can carry up to 26 Rafale M fighters and up to 4 Kamov Ka-31, or 2 HAL Dhruv NUH or 4 MH-60R helicopters!
@Dazai_a yeah so against Chinese Navy you will be deploying one squadron 9n under powered migs...why do need a aircraft carrier...
@@manisherande4568 Where do you think Chinese navy will attack from? The East right? There are 2 channels of water, We have 2 aircraft carriers and the Nicobar Island. Maybe check out the geography, will you?
Even though it's not top
Even though it had many delays
Even though it's not most advanced
Even though it has foreign fighter jets
Then also we are proud of it cause it's first
not top and not most advanced? Building an Aircraft carrier of this capability itself takes you among the Top 5 or Top 6 nations out 190 countries on the planet.

funnily enough, India has actually operated every type of aircraft carrier. CATOBAR, STOBAR, and VTOL.
I hear the next Indian carrier Vishal is going to be CATOBAR which is good. Cope-slopes are no way to go.
Yeah we even went war with our Carrier in 1971 can created a new country Bangladesh
Appreciate the hard work, effort and time put in to make a detailed video on the INS Vikant.
It's a really solid starter carrier for the Indian Navy.
Pros =
* Domestic made (so India now has production capability to make new ships and a pool of skilled engineers)
* Cost effective ramp
* Two carriers offers far, far more operational capability. Can rotate ships in and out of an area for sustained fighting, divert a ship to handle threats etc.
* Decent size, comparable to anything Russia and France currently have.
Cons =
* 45,000 tons will get tossed around in harsh sea conditions, limiting operation capability. US carriers are twice as heavy and don't feel the waves as much.
* Crew training will suffer given both carriers are mismatched by design.
* No unlimited range, meaning logistics will be harder
* limited sortie and payload capacity without a catapult system
OUR SOLDIERS OUR REAL HEROES 🇮🇳
Awesome video on INS Vikrant !
Спасибо большое за издательство. 🙏
Congratulations Indian Navy.
Only thing which both Indian carrier group lack as compared to American Navy is nuclear powered carrier and size also to some extent. But It has a enough range for Indian ocean, and well defended with Barak 8 and it has a complete carrier strike group with destroyers (with Brahmos), frigates also each have a nuclear capable Arihant class submarine that can deliver a nuclear warhead along with conventional submarines. China should be careful in Indian Ocean specially Strait of Malacca. Chinese govt. can't survive without Trade that's the route.
Afterall, India is only country that has an Ocean name before/after it's own name thanks to Indian Subcontinent. So it must control it.
An enourmous achievment by India. Hope it provided the knowhow needed to build a few more (looking like they'll be needed).
The history of Indian Navy doesn't start in 1950s it started with the Maratha Empire which had one of the most lethal naval regims of its time.

Barak 8 also known as LR-SAM or MR-SAM is an Indo-Israeli jointly developed surface-to-air missile (SAM) system
Barak 8 was jointly developed by India's Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO) and Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI).

Well researched video !
It may not be the most powerful but we are proud of the fact that it was made in our country and now we have the technology to make aircraft carriers. Similarly, a country can develop well by not being dependent on others but by developing them on its own. Making things and learning. We may not get success in the beginning but if we do it again and again we will definitely get it. We are proud that our country is moving towards self-reliant India day by day.❤️🇮🇳
yes, an aircraft career is just there to carry aircrafts. What matters the most are the planes that we put on it!!
@@jusstinbarber For that also we have made Tejas and will upgrade it and give it to the Navy. Our country is also working on advanced multirole aircraft 5th generation. We have also made our own Kaveri aircraft engine which is currently not giving as much thrust as we want but it Development is going on. Soon the fighter aircraft made by our country will be on the aircraft carrier made by our country.

Yep, awesome
Thank you for the new post. As a subscriber, I look forward to new posts on all of your channels. Are there truly F18s in the Indian military?
They're not, but the model was one of the contenders for INS Vikrant's naval aircraft.
The contract is going to the Rafale - M most probably. And the follow on carriers will receive indigenous fighters.
No and india will never aqure it as us don't allow indian missiles or avionics there
Mid 2023 should reveal which airframe will be the stop gap naval fighter for the carrier. But they will be replaced by the new naval fighter that is in development within the next decade.
No, not yet bro. Indian military operates USA made Chinook and Apache Helicopters.. Heavy transport aircraft C-17 globe master, Predators drones.. But it doesn't yet operate any US made fighter jets.
She is not even ther first Indian Vikrant, but she is without a doubt the first Indian Indian Vikrant

We’ve been trying to reach you about your aircraft carriers extended warranty.
😂😂good one but be aware we can even reach for extended warranty of space ship next time. Because ISRO and NASA are collaborating for a rocket NISAR
Glad u explain vikrant aircraft carrier in non boredom ot 12 minute, i appreciate u for that...
Btw u missed one point DRDO has installed a stealth technology or the project Shakti System inside ins vikrant to make it less cross-section on enemy radar...
Anyone who understands microwave tech knows stealth doesn't work for large objects and that too traveling at such low speeds. Also, SONAR will easily detect it. Plus, aircraft carriers never travel alone. It's always part of a fleet of 10-20 smaller attack ships. So even if stealth really works for large sea objects, there's no point to it since the whole fleet cannot escape radar and sonar. Just because the government says something, it doesn't automatically become true. Critical thinkers can see propaganda a mile away.

next one will be an sister ship by the way nice one
Its has to be understood that india is a democracy and it has a large water region to cover with the growing threat from Chinese Navy.
Hence india needs to be having atleast 3 carriers in the ocean to counter any threats that harms freedom of navigation and rules based international order in the indian ocean.
Also the fact that these are not shared by countries like US , France ,UK or even Russians to india.
This caused much delay for india to develop their own indigenous carrier and battle group but now as they have delivered one class carrier they need to keep making more and bigger and nastier ships.
Go India 🇮🇳 ❤
Thanks ruski friend, thanks.
You didn't used that traditional Indian song which I don't know but why it has been imposed on us by these some western youtube military analyst jokers, even Millennium 7 channel used that, totally killed the mood.

I think CSL becoming like the Newport News facility of India
Can someone in the chat please explain why Aircraft Carriers don't combine ski jump with catapult or EMALS? as from my understanding the ski jump allows more lift due to angle, down side being limitations with MTOW on takeoff. But using EMALS you could have a shorter launch on a ski jump? correct. I'm sure I am completely wrong in my assumptions as it would have been done if it was so beneficial. But would love to know why it wouldn't work.
Thank you Horizon for such an amazing video, I am constantly impressed with India's development and how quickly they establish home grown manufacturing for highly complex systems.
By the way, interesting idea. I admit that it is simply too difficult to implement and the benefits will be modest. In addition, takeoff weight restrictions will remain, heavier aircraft cannot be launched
EMALS and Steam catapults are always better than ski-jumps as you want to maximise your MTOW for longer sorties & weapon loads, it also allows heavier aircraft to be launched such as AWACS which increase the carriers capability by orders of magnitude. Skijumps are used A: because the country uses them lacks the technology for EMALS (it's still fairly early-ish tech for China and USA) B: the ship class Vikrant originates from was a Russian "Aircraft carrying cruiser" with a heavy Anti Ship missile compliment that took up a a lot of space C: it's a hell of a lot cheaper.
I guess when aircraft reaches the ski jump with that much force of catapult the landing gear may get damaged, I'm not an expert so take it with a pinch of salt
Its really impossible to have a catapult going up a curve and would be difficult for the aircraft to detatch from the rail if it stopped just short of the ramp. It would also place an ENORMOUS amount of stress on the gear to be flung by a catapult and then squashed as it goes up a curved surface. Hope this answers your question.
Ski jump is cheaper... catapult system is expensive to build and maintain and does require a lot of power....
Any idea if india will be making our own ciws soon? I guess we are still using the Russian ones , not that anything is wrong with them . But would be great if india has its own on the way.
Atleast we have started building and now possess technology

India really needs to build up it's navy, if it's going to be strong enough to stand up to China, one on one.
IAC 2 will likely be the same as INS VIKRANT but will be modified for UAV operations & modernised and efficient than INS VIKRANT . After that only we can see a flat top carrier for Indian Navy . And we can see a faster delivery of IAC 2 than the vikrant . Rafale M has been chosen for the flight wing until TEDBF rolls out.
