These are out of my Personal Gaming Experiences, you can give a sure shot at it!! A blog from one among the PUBG addicts!!!! After all Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!!! , is what that drives PUBG addicts like us INDIA ENTERS LEAGUE OF NUCLEAR TRIAD POWERS India today officially enters into the elite club of Nuclear Triad Powers comprising of countries like USA, Russia and China. This was announced today by the Honourable Indian Prime Minister with maiden successful deterrence patrol of INS Arihant, the only nuclear powered Ballistic Missile Submarine of Indian Navy. The same was also tweeted by the Honourable Defence Minister of India. So, what is a Nuclear Triad? Nuclear Triad is a three pronged military force structure which is capable of launching nuclear missile from aircrafts, military and naval ballistic missile submarines. Many defence experts say that Probability that an enemy could strike all the three of the nuclear launching assets is very minimal. Nuclear ballistic missile submarine is widely considered as a lethal force which can handle “Nuclear Second Strikes” predominantly. Timeline of Nuclear Powered Ballistic Missile Submarine INS Arihant Whenever a country X launches a nuclear strike against country Y, defence shield like S400 will be in place to defend it. Nuclear submarines like INS Arihant comes into the picture when a country was hit by nuclear missile so badly it could counter attack the country X with Land based nuclear launch missiles ( Agni Series of Missiles as India is concerned). INS Arihant is armed with 12 K-15 Sagarika SLBM (Submarine Launch Ballistic Missiles) or 4 K-4 SLBMs. INS Arihant also holds the pride of First Nuclear Missile submarine built and operated by a country outside the P-5 countries. P-5 represents the Permanent Members of United Nations Security Council comprising of USA, UK, France, Russia and China. INS Arihant is also the lead vessel of US $2.9 billion ATV (Advanced Technology Vessel) programme comprising of 4 vessels out of which the other 3 are under various phases of construction. Second vessel INS Arighat is currently under sea trials. These 4 vessels are together called as Arihant Class of ballistic missile submarines. Shortcomings of INS Arihant is expected to be corrected in the following vessels. The latter 2 vessels are also expected to be heavily armed with more lethal K-4 SLBMs. INS Arihant class is just a small step towards building indigenous nuclear powered Goliath ships like INS Vishal, a nuclear powered super carrier, which is still in the final stages of design. INS Vishal is likely to be a nuclear powered 65,000+ tonne aircraft carrier of CATOBAR Design (Catapult Assisted Take-off But Arrested Recovery). Message to the world is High and Clear, India is definitely a deterrent force to reckon with!!!
