Their high availability rate and retirement of 36 year old kilos have improved readiness of the Submarine fleet

This viral image was an april fools joke.

And some fanboys took it seriously.

CHARLES DE GAUL is the most capable aircraft carrier currently in active service outside of the USN

This AC can carry 30 Rafale Ms 4 E2c Hawkeyes AWACS and 6 Multirole Helicopters

We will get the actual images of it alongside Vikrant , when they meet up early next year for joint naval exercises centered around Carrier Operations.

We will also see the first Rafale M land on Vikrant during the joint Operations between India and France
