下水9年后，印度国产航母“维克兰特”号终于交付海军

Indian Navy takes delivery of indigenous aircraft carrier 'INS Vikrant'

印度海军接收国产航母“维克兰特”号

NEW DELHI: The final countdown for the commissioning of India’s first indigenous aircraft carrier (IAC) as INS Vikrant has now begun, with the 45,000-tonne warship built at a cost of almost Rs 20,000-crore being delivered to the Navy by the Cochin Shipyard on Thursday.

新德里：印度第一艘国产航母“维克兰特”号的服役倒计时已经开始，这艘耗资近2000亿卢比建造的排水量4.5万吨航母已于周四由科钦造船厂交付给印度海军。

In a related development, first two of the 24 submarine-hunting MH-60 `Romeo’ helicopters, armed with Hellfire missiles, MK-54 torpedoes and precision-kill rockets, arrived from the US at Kochi, with a third slated to come next month.

24架搭载地狱火导弹、MK-54鱼雷和精确打击火箭的MH-60“罗密欧”直升机中的前两架已从美国运抵科钦，第三架定于下个月运抵。

All 24 choppers, also equipped with multi-mode radars and night-vision devices, will arrive by 2025 under the Rs 15,157 crore ($2.13 billion) contract inked with the US in February 2020. The MH-60Rs will operate from the IAC as well as other frontline warships.

根据2020年2月与美国签署的价值1515.7亿卢比(21.3亿美元)的合同，所有24架直升机，装备了多模雷达和夜视设备，将在2025年前抵达。

MH-60Rs直升机将在“维特兰特”以及其他前线军舰上操作。

The 262-meter long and 62-meter wide IAC, which has the capacity to carry 30 fighters and helicopters, will be commissioned in the second half of August. She will then be christened INS Vikrant after India’s first aircraft carrier that was acquired from the UK in 1961, which played a major role during the 1971 war and eventually decommissioned in 1997.

可搭载30架战斗机和直升机，长262米、宽62米的国产航母将于8月下旬服役。

随后，她被命名为“维特兰特”号。“维特兰特”号是印度的第一艘航空母舰，于1961年从英国购得，在1971年战争中发挥了重要作用，最终于1997年退役。

Powered by four gas turbines totalling 88 MW power, the IAC has an overall indigenous content of 76%. It will have a crew of 1,700, including women, and an operational endurance of around 7,500 nautical miles at a cruising speed of 18 knots.

由4台燃气轮机提供动力，总功率88兆瓦，“维特兰特”号上的部件76%是国产的。1700名船员，包括女性船员，巡航速度为18节，续航能力约为7500海里。

But while the Navy has conducted extensive sea trials of the long-delayed IAC over the last one year, the aviation trials of the MiG-29K fighters and helicopters like Kamov-31 and MH-60R from her deck will only kick off later this year. In effect, the carrier – which was first sanctioned by government way back in January 2003 -- will become fully operational only by mid-2023.

但是，尽管海军在过去一年里对拖延已久的国产航母进行了广泛的海试，但米格- 29k战斗机和卡莫夫-31和MH-60R等直升机的试验将在今年晚些时候才开始。实际上，这艘早在2003年1月就得到政府批准的航母要到2023年年中才会完全投入使用

Why you use Vikrant named as christened!? don't you have any Hindustani words for that!?

为什么要用维克兰特命名？就没有合适的印度斯坦词语来命名吗?

China has the largest navy. Still a long long way to go for India

中国建立了一支规模最大的海军。而印度还有很长的路要走

Congratulations India. India is making progress in all fields. Hope that one day India will avenge it's defeat by China.

祝贺印度。印度在所有领域都取得了进步。希望有一天印度能一雪“被中国打败的”前耻。

India doesnt need many aircraft carriers.... India needs a strong air force and missiles systems.... aircraft carriers are more useful for those countries who want to fight wars far in far away lands like the USA... where there are not many friendly air bases... india enemies are right next to it and India can launch aircrafts from land to fight them...

印度不需要太多航母，印度需要强大的空军和导弹系统。航空母舰对那些想在远离本土地方打仗的国家（比如美国）更有用，远方缺少友军空军基地。印度的敌人就在旁边，印度可以从陆地上出动飞机攻击他们…

Mohit Goyal

Indigenous aircraft carrier is a huge achievemnet for India. India is on the road to be a super power very soon

国产航母是印度的伟大成就。印度很快就会成为超级大国

we could deploy it towards sea so that our ship will never capsize or drown even in Pacific Ocean chzlkenger deep if we need to keep it afloat for a long time and use it as6 a moving city .

我们可以把航母部署到海上，即使在太平洋也不会倾覆或沉没，如果需要，就让他们长时间漂浮，把它当作一个移动的城市。

Laxmi Pandit

The age of aircraft carriers is over. They are highly vulnerable to missiles and torpedos. China has completely neutralised the US carriers based in the pacific with its carrier killing missiles. Instead of building carriers it is better to go for fast attack nuclear submarines which are immune to missiles and can interdict ship as well as attack coastal targets.

航空母舰的时代结束了，它们非常容易受到导弹和鱼雷的攻击。

中国用航母杀手导弹完全压制了美国在太平洋的航母。

与其建造航母，不如建造快速攻击核潜艇，这些核潜艇不受导弹攻击，可以拦截军舰，也可以攻击沿海目标。

SG Vachan

Proud moment for Make in India. We should continue to build stronger and larger weaponry in India.

这是印度制造的骄傲时刻。我们应该继续在印度造更强大的武器。

航母没什么用，活靶子。每次出港都需要很多军舰护航。只不过是莫迪的宠物

Make 4 aircraft carriers in such a way that we could connect it and look like one , so this way we can make a 1.5 km long aircraft carrier ,if we prepare 100% before project we could inaugurate 4 in 3 years max .

造4艘航母，把它们连接起来，整合成一艘航母，

这样我们就可以造出一艘1.5公里长的航母，如果我们在项目前做好准备，我们最多3年内就可以启用4艘航母。

Idea is good but 4 Aircraft Carriers have to be sailed together a risk of getting hit in a war at a time.

这个主意不错，但是4艘航母必须一起航行，冒着全军覆没的风险。

Nobody is going to use this huge elephants in future wars ,it's going to be sophisticated drones war and radiation war things , they deploy lakes of small drone things in sea air and every where as well as hig end small missiles and Robots

没有人会在未来的战争中使用航母。未来的战争将是先进无人机战争和辐射战争，在海上、空中和任何地方部署大量的小型无人机，以及高端的小型导弹和机器人。
