F-22 Super Raptor Episode: • The Super F-22 is Abso...
MERCH: task-purpose-shop.fourthwall....
India has started building up its navy and establishing bases further out to sea in a move to secure their maritime backyard. The Indian Ocean connects prime shipping routes and over 2.7 billion people live in the various countries surrounding it. Forty per cent of the world’s offshore oil production takes place in the Indian Ocean basin.
Yet despite the name, the Indian Ocean is one of China’s main geostrategic priorities and they appear to be making moves to box in and bypass India for decades as part of their Maritime Silk Road strategy. China’s Navy has recently made high profile maneuvers through the Indian Ocean with a submarine visit to Sri Lanka and then to Pakistan. The Chinese government and their officials stated the increased activity was about trade and security, not aimed towards their rival’s in India. However they did also say quote “the Indian Ocean is not India’s ocean”
India is aiming to change the state of play by building a true bluewater navy that can stand up to any opponent and project Indian power across the Indo-Pacific region. Indian Chief of Naval Staff Admiral Kumar announced the country plans to have a 175 ship navy by 2035 along with major upgrades to existing hulls. How can India modernize their naval power? What kind of ships is India building and what do they tell us of the country’s overall strategy? Hit the like button and join our Task & Purpose discord server if you haven’t yet. This is the story of the Indian Navy and what the future holds for one of the fastest growing naval forces on the planet.
The story of how india went from a buyers to a builders was not a simple a to b process.
The Indian Navy operates a unique mix of western, eastern, and indigenously designed equipment. Following India’s independence from British rule in 1947, the country operated mostly foreign vessels in its navy for much of the 20th Century. India had inherited two frigates and a few dozen smaller vessels from the UK, but also purchased or licensed from other nations over the following decades, including the Soviet Union. Despite close ties to the British Navy following almost a century of colonial rule, India didn’t want to get drawn into the superpower clash of the Cold War. This is because India believes in a policy known as “strategic autonomy,” what that means is they want to reserve the right to make their own decisions independent of external pressure.
According to this 30 page declassified CIA document from 1988 their analysis stated that following India’s independence India originally pursued a naval strategy that was mainly just diplomatic measures because they had yet to build up a large force. quote “New Delhi's Indian Ocean strategy centers on maritime defense and the assertion of its leadership over other regional states. It also includes supporting the internal stability of these states, protecting the interests of local Indian ethnic groups, and limiting-if not supplanting-foreign presences.” The document goes on to state that beginning in 1988 India started to modernize and expand their navy to actually start projecting power.

AD BAIT!
Video idea: Who really are US's allies? With the definition that those whom US can share the deepest secretes and desires; aligned to the highest level of ideology to the end of time. For example, I feel only Australia fits that definition while on the fence on UK, Canada and definitely skeptical about France and Germany.
They hurt more than they help. I get it from a business standpoint, but they just don't have our veterans best interests at heart.
Australia doesn’t fit that idea we a indecent country so I disagree

Retarded comparison.

then someone should remind India that what China is doing is to defend freedom of navigation and uphold international law and order.

It is somewhat ironic that China declares that the "Indian Ocean is not India's Ocean" yet they also declare that the South China Sea is China's Sea.
Well its because they have the power to back it, none of the S.E.Asian navies can even match their coast guard. (well, until uncle Sam shows up at least)
Might is right. White Christians invaded America, slaughtered 12+ Million native Americans, and created USA. It is still there. Remaining native people are all drunk or on drugs. Australia, New Zealand are the same way.
So the question is, who is mightier? China is already far stronger than USA. India is no match. China will do what White Christians did before.
If India wants to challenge China, India must become stronger. Zero chance of that.

It's worth noting that India has had at least one carrier in its fleet since 1961. They have decades of experience in carrier operations and fleet coordination that China simply lacks. That experience can't be learned in a few short years or stolen.
Also, India has been strengthening diplomatic and military relationships with their neighbors in SE Asia, all of whom have their own critical interests in keeping China in check. China is encroaching on all its neighbors, and a strong coalition is the best defense.
India aircraft carrier was retired long ago as cows kept blocking the runways.
But do the carriers have toilets on them?

Indias two island chains in indian ocean also have great stratergic value. The lakshadweep islands in arabian sea and andaman and nicobar islands in bay of bengal near Malacca straight. The andaman islands are situated right at the mouth of Malacca straight
Many like me would argue those island chains are more valuable to India than any naval asset. No one can sink an island and depending on the island it could be difficult to take over.

India's aircraft carriers are relatively modest as they have the islands as well.
India is not at bleeding edge if technolybut is concentrating on reliable and useable forces.
India also has very close relationships with Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore & Philippines... The relationships go way back as in really way back, like couple of millenias back... The foundational cultures of Southeast Asia is very much Indian origin... Plus China is a massive trading nation, it'll be extremely unwise for China to try anything funny as the joke will be on them 😅 All it takes is that we stop buying from China - case close 🤷🏽♂️
We all can manufacture stuff on our own, who cares if it slightly more expensive... It's sure better than having a self entitled ungrateful bully bugging our lives

India's anti-piracy operations have been incredible. They've done tons of work during the Yemen attacks.

As an American I welcome a strong neutral India. They're certainly not the "puppet of the west" nor are they inclined to let China walk over them. I like the idea of working with India so if something happens we're already prepared to work together.
Yeah, good sovereign states building a better, more peaceful and less hostile, stable world for tomorrow. Definitely the way to go for spanning prosperity and progress.
India isn't perfect but neither are we. Working with India is better for us long term.

Oh please. Everyone knows the West is now targetting China and the next target is India. White lies are too predictable cuz at the end of the day we all know that the West cant see anyone do better than them and that is where your foreign policy is and has been.

That statement is misqutoed. Defence Minister said "we'll build another carrier soon, and won't stop there, we'll build 5 or 6 more."
What he means is a third carrier of Vikrant class followed by a fourth carrier of the Vishal class and four Helicopter Carriers (under already announced the MRSV Program).
In the long term (2050), Indian Naval top brass has stated before on multiple occasions that their goal is a 5 carrier Navy (not including helicopter carriers).

Out of the three services, the Indian Navy is the only one that is directly involved in the design & development of its systems.
Yeah the only major thing bought from outside is conventional submarines, which is an issue. Perplexing that we can design and build nuclear submarines but not diesel submarines
Glad to see Indias 🇮🇳 growth into a proper superpower. They will certainly get there. They are doing some amazing things. Great chess players, missions to the moon, and modernizing its military. I know there are a lot of Indians that are reluctant to cozy up to the West because of past colonial tensions. But I’ve always liked the Indian people and I’m glad to see them come up. I think we should have a strong friendship and alliance with India. But because India is cozy with Russia, I don’t think it will ever be a “nato” type relationship with the west. I have nothing against Russia. As a matter of fact I think it’s dumb the USA doesn’t pursue a friendship with Russia. Cold War mentality continues… Anyways, congrats to India on recent achievements 👍🏻
USA did get a lot closer with Russia under Yeltsin. Maybe it could have been done better but it was mainly Putin’s Cold War nostalgia and mafioso mindset that made him ratchet the tension back up. Most of us Russia fans were hugely disappointed with that decision.
@@laulaja-7186 to be fair, we told Putin “no more eastward expansion “ and we kept expanding NATO right on Russias doorstep. There was no way Putin was going to let NATO get a foothold in Ukraine. Russia would then have NATO missiles 200 miles from Moscow. What do you think the USA would do if say Mexico or Canada got friendly with China and allowed China to build military bases in their country? Do you think America would allow that? No. We would not. And if it called for us to attack, we would. That being said, there was a deal on the table to keep Ukraine neutral while still allowing them into the EU and still be allied with the West without joining NATO. The USA and Britain told Ukraine to not take the deal. So Putin attacked. Can you blame him? Also, it’s a known fact we (the USA) had chemical research facilities in Ukraine. It was admitted to in Congress by Victoria Newland. Look, Putin may not be the greatest guy in the world. But we have relationships with other shady actors (Saudi Arabia for one). So there’s no reason we couldn’t be on friendly terms with Russia. I’d rather have Russia on our side as opposed to Russia being cozy with China.
Agreed. May be biased because I’m Indian-American, but I would love to see closer relations between the two countries.
Well explained
superpower, right.
Like the old saying, strong fences make for good neighbors. So this is good for India and China. Keeping each other in check.
Actually that proverb fits perfectly with India and China
Since we have Himalayas. This kept the two civilisations away from conflicts for thousands of years.

to be frank, Indian is in catch up mode, as with CCP annexation of the south china spratley Islands and their sabre rattling with their democratic neighbors Taiwan and Philippines.
a pacific regional arms race has covertly began with Australia to purchase existing Los Angeles SSN and missle technology, japan has turned its once peaceful defence force into a carrier fleet again. Nz and Australia have been heavily investing in maritime defence for its pacific protectorates as CCP have been investing in PNG and Samoa\Fiji infrastructure in a bid to lease land for a refueling base in the south China, as the have done quietly with Myanmar by supporting the ongoing coup there.

Still 90% indigenous by value, and more indigenisation still in the works. How many countries in the world have 100% indigenous components on their military hardware? Not even the US.
A strong India is good for the US. Just my opinion. Sick of the US having to be everywhere and do everything. Would be nice to have a strong India taking care of things and who we can sometimes help out if needed. That's what I consider a good ally.
India is not an ally of anybody. We practice "strategic autonomy". We are just a strategic partner of usa, not an ally. Both the terms mean different in the context of geopolitics.
That's kinda the Idea. If you take a good look at the Quad, you'll see that it covers most of the ocean, and Bharat (India), actually can cover both the middle east and the Indian Ocean Region. And we don't have to exclusively use Naval might to do so. We're friendly with Israel, Iran and Saudi Arabia, not to mention Russia, which means we can open dialogues and channels which the US (due to political compulsions), can only dream of.
I mean, India needs to take of itself before others and its got a lot of work to do there!

This is what most of you in the West don’t understand. India is not some American ‘bulwark’ to be used by the US to torpedo at China. India has and will always act in its own strategic national/foreign interests. India and the US are partners, not allies bound by a defense pact.

Nice.
As an Indian optoelectronic engineer in the government sector producing important technologies with dual use (both military and civilian application), until we get to manufacture IC, not like Intel, apple or snapdragon but basic microcontroller, FPGA and analogue IC's we are doomed. The government asks us to avoid chinese made components and it's, at this point, impossible to make any PCB without chinese based chips. Yes some chips can be replaced by US/Japanese/European company designed IC's but still they are made in China. Also these low power processors (not the cutting age 3-4 nm one) which we put in drones, missiles and what not, are 95% made in China. Also their design chips are integrating AI and image processing and Linux compute all in a single $20 microchip. Which the USA will do at least for $100-200. When it comes to AI drone swarms China still has the clear advantage.

Well, if the current Indian semicon and electronics push is any indicator, India's traditional lack of a fab is about to change soon. Already multiple fabs have been announced. Tower semicon fab under process right now is actually for analog chips AFAIK. And Tata is already looking at 14 nm node. Adani meanwhile is taking care of some of the lower hanging fruit, like Silicon boules and wafers from them. That one IISc Professor has already laid all the groundwork for Gallium Nitride tech. And there was another working group that is taking on Silicon Carbide semicon. And then there is our obvious existing strength as a fabless chip-design firms. And finally, Government is already investing in emerging tech like Photonics. Yeah, things could be better, but our start over the past 5-6 years alone has been phenomenal.
Also, most strategic projects like ISRO rockets, Nuclear ICBMs and Nuclear Reactors that India makes use Indian-designed Microprocessors that are built within India at the SCL lab in Chandigarh. Ofcourse relying on a 180 nm node and such a small fab is an obvious bottleneck.
180nm fab isn’t great but may not be too bad considering s-400 systems are based on 600nm design

Awesome, happy to see it for India. While not planning to use it for aggression, they are realizing the wisdom of “peace, through strength”.
There are two factors that need to be accounted for when assessing India’s ability to resist Chinese aggression. One is how India and China define their strategic goals and what they see as necessary to ensure their security. For instance, if India does not perceive its security to include locations that are beyond the Indian Ocean region and has stable borders with its neighbors, then that changes its calculations regarding its military necessities. The second factor pertains to the number of other security threats the two countries have. China and India both have multiple security threats that force limited resources to be divided and allocated to meet these challenges. This means that while China has clear advantages in certain areas, these are offset by its substantial geographic disadvantage vis-à-vis India.

China might have more resources but so do its opponents- Japan, S. Korea and the US are significantly more credible threats than Pakistan while Russia, N. Korea and Myanmar are terrible allies.
You should create a separate video on the biggest gamechanger of all. India's plans to build a naval base and trans-shipment port in the Nicobar islands. That naval base will literally be a few hundred miles from the Malacca straits, where more than half the world's oil and container and cargo shipment travels, and most of China's trade happens. Once that naval base is up and running, it will be a gamechanger in terms of India's ability to project power and control this chokepoint.
Seems like everything India does or buys are... game changers. Lol. But why the game never actually changes ??😅
@@NCM-xy8ow Because it is a no-brainer. It is about the geographical location of the naval base. It is literally at the mouth of the Malacca straits that carries half of the world's oil and cargo ships.

Grow up a little bit, A war cannot be fought by aircraft, aircraft carriers, frigates, destroyers, corvettes. It also requires oil, food and supplies. So please check the facts.

India had one of the first and largest navies the world ever saw. The Cholas had the strongest Navy from 900 AD to 1300 AD. They ruled all the way from South India to South East Asia. When the Brits came to India they had a ship life span of only 10 years whereas Bengali ships were bigger and had a lifespan of 20 years.
So, India has a long , prestigious and glorious Naval history which China can't match.
Plus Indian Navy regularly conducts anti piracy operations through which it has reduced hundreds of crew from pirates.
The truth is nobody gives a shit abt these things cause they dont know shit abt india. Only we know abt it and even if we were to tell someone they wouldn’t believe becz of bad image of india created by foreign media and propaganda.
Good video. We'd best root for India to be able to deter China.
Hey bro,
At time stamp 7:18, 7:52, 15:03, 15:56, 16:22, 17:42, 18:19 and 18:53, the map you are showing is not correct.
please correct or trim that part.
Regards and warm welcome From India.
A high quality video on India's naval expansion. Nice to see that someone besides the USA is giving China a run for their money. Maybe if enough countries join the effort, China might have an attack of common sense. Great presentation!😊
Other than USN, China is facing off with Japanese and Indian Navies. Currently they are the fourth largest and fifth largest Navies respectively, and by next decade will be the fourth largest and third largest Navies respectively. So it will be Navy #2 vs Navy #1 + Navy #3 + Navy #4. China is biting off more than it can chew.
@@death_paradeAs it comes to naval comparison, a little edge can easily results a 10-1 casualty rate. Being 2nd place is nothing compared to 1st. 3rd or 4th is also nothing compared to the 2nd.
@@jntiger1981yes but 1st would be supporting 3rd and 4th while China, who the heck is helping China navely. China is trying to get their navy blue water for international power projection but in a war the navy is probably going to rarely go past a few miles off the coast except if they deem it of absolute importance. I mean I would say like defending the straight of malacca but that’s too far out for to little reward with India able to blockade the Indian Ocean. China is kinda screwed because they have no shot at defending almost any of their trade while only now starting to look invest more in overland trade that is still pretty vulnerable against the 1st, 2nd, 4-5th, 5-7th, and like 7-8th largest air forces, of course these are just the different us military branches including the coast guard while Indias air-force is just about as strong and china alone
@@death_parade @jntiger1981 Yeah, China seems to have not learnt from the Napoleanic or World Wars.

I like how Modi told Europe that their problems arent Indias problem, then basically to grow up.
The upside of India's expanding Navy is the ability to patrol the Maritime traffic.

And the rest of the world are not the slaves of USA either

@@omarsolis3311 Once I was working with team from Europe, we spent good 20 minutes discussing how the name Ladiswlava be pronounced. Then they gave up.
@@Taskandpurpose a trick you can try. Enter the word in Google translate ans set the language Hindi and then listen to the pronunciation.
In addition to that 145 naval fleets by 2035, the Indian Navy has outlined its plan for 2045 and has planned a total of 6 carrier battle groups, out of which 3 will be nuclear powered with displacement >75k. 10 SSNs, 7 SSBNs, 36 SSKs. The next-gen stealth destroyers (Project 18) will have 144 VSL capable of launching Hypersonic Brahmos 2, long-range next-gen Brahmos, and high-powered laser weapons. P15A/B destroyers are more or less for defensive roles. P18 destroyers are being made as Anti-access/area denial (A2/AD) offensive destroyers.

Thanks for the video cappy, regards.
Don’t forget about Diego Garcia bro! We ALWAYS keep a group ready to deploy in the lagoon at all times. The Brits also have marines on the island (shout out to the Brit Club). Plus sometimes they’re a Canadian or Australian ship in port too so the Indian Ocean isn’t without some backup for the Indians
Yeah they have bases in Pakistan and Singapore in case they need to blockade India that's more dependent on foreign imports.
@@tritium1998 Who'll blockade India and how can someone impose a blockade upon India from Pakistan and Singapore? 😆😆

Please do another video on their Air Force and Army next please.
I don’t think you can say “Indian, military, and power” in the same sentence.
Already done
@@T.R.E.D.yes we can, we're the 4th most powerful military for a reason
@T.R.E.D. Why not? India 🇮🇳, unlike many nations around the world is not suffering from a demographic decline.
The Indian economy is a rising superpower both in manufacturing, technology, and pharmaceuticals.
Their military is becoming one of the more powerful militaries in the world at a time when Europe is shrinking when it should be growing. India has a LOT of amazing and awesome things going for them as a nation.
Our Air Force is quite good, our army needs work

This video enriched my understanding of Indian policy greatly.
Two Largest Armies in the world!!!! It’s only natural that they’re rivals!!!!!
Thanks for independent world information,and trying for more than one perspective F.I.D.O. Fellow grunt
I'm glad to hear of progress the Indian Navy has achieved.
Good for India. I read recently that India has been the most invaded country in history. India's necklace of diamonds strategy is a good start at containing China along with maintaining a strong military.
And also in our existence we never invaded another country
@@Omnitaku7 Technically the Cholas took SEA and the Kashmiris expanded into Central Asia. But I agree Hindus didn't enslave those they defeated which is admirable tbh.
@@linneshwharparameswaran6147 I said that in the context of United India after independence.
Okay let me get this straight: the reason for Indian warships to be lightly armed despite their displacement is because of our goals Indian Navy is a defensive Navy and does not need to leave the country vicinity like usa or china to project power but instead protect its coastline and maritime security...also the 16 brahmos missile that these destroyers carry are...huge! And very capable and lethal So ya they are about 2 times that of tomahawk missiles used by American warships so yes you get the point...but soon it's gonna change the upcoming frigate class (nilgiri class frigates) are as armed as current largest destroyers in the Indian Navy and are literally having around the same displacement as current destroyers....so upcoming destroyers are gonna be huge too and will pack a huge puch...more like offensive role like arleigh Burke class like proper blue water navy projecting power far from home...and etc they are expected to have a displacement of 9000+ tons basically almost cruiser category now and will probably have a lot of armaments and vls ..now so you can see where this all is headed...we are peaceful country and have no first strike policy but It doesn't mean we shouldn't be able to project power to the enemy's backyard right? Oh boi this is long anyways..not to mention upcoming aircraft carriers and submarines and a indigenous carrier brone fighter tedbf also amca carrier version which will replace mig29k and probably be back bone of Indian Naval Air power ❤❤
thanks chris and crew.
14:17 I would like to add that more VLS Will be added the Project 15A , 15B on midlife refit.
At the time of their construction many missiles systems were not developed hence Indian Navy decided to add these systems later while refit.
For example VL-Astra missiles will be added on them for short range air defence , SMART ( Supersonic Missile Assisted Release of Torpedo ) missiles which can deliver Torpedos to range of 640-700kms will be added too which are now in final phases of Trails , Brahmos 2 ( Actually you are wrong Brahmos 2 will be derived from Technology developed in Indias HSTDV programmes which has been tested ) , DRDO is Also Working on DEW to be intergrated on board Project 18 Destoryers ( As per initial Leaks planned to have 144 / 128 VLS ) and also will be integrated on other warships
The Ayatollah sitting next to a little Christmas tree was a nice touch, lol. (9:30)
The Defence Minister Rajnath Singh yesterday revealed India's plans to build five to six more aircraft carriers. Moreover, he also said that India will soon start building the third aircraft carrier, a 45,000-tonne sister ship of INS Vikrant.

On thing the US figured out when it comes to carrier groups is the three-ship rotation. If you want to have a Carrier group deployed away from easy access to your own coast, and you want to be able to keep it on-station all year round, for as long as you want, it take three carriers: One on station, one transiting to or from the duty location, and one undergoing repairs. Having three carrier groups would give India the bare minimum it would need to deploy a single group to a location away from their coastal waters, and keep it there year-round if they needed to. Now, I'm not sure if they have the logistical component to make that happen, but three ships would at least give them the hulls. This is almost certainly is NOT the primary reason for building up three carrier groups, but it would be a new capability that having three carriers would give them.
This guy is well informed. Good job.

India has been stepping closer to super power than any other non super power country they have the knowledge people and potential
They have the manpower and resources. But incompetence from infighting and also corruption prevents India from really being a great power.
@maka6134 I see I was looking from an external perspective but interestingly Brazil has had a similar issue with a high potential
Brazil and Argentina could be powerful if they fought corruption
@@hybridt Brazil indeed has the same potential but also the same problems. Brazil is known for the biggest corruption scandal in history. Operation carwash. And its recent politics was a president who was just released from jail. Not exactly a stable country that can develop as lets say some European country.
@@maka6134 Corruption sure, but infighting I do not understand. By the way, differences in thought is normal and allowed in the political circles in democracies.
