		The Sindhurakshak is an EKM 877-kilo class submarine built by the Russian Rubin Design Bureau and becomes the fifth of its kind in the Indian submarine fleet.

	Key Publishing Ltd Aviation Forums - Should Pakistan go for the U214,Scorpene or Turquoise subs?
		The Indian Scorpene deal has been in the press for agesa and has still not been approved by the Indian government, so lets not pretend its a done deal by any chance, right now Indias youngest subs are about 12 years old....
		Well India did buy two new kilo class sub the first in 1997(INS Sindhurakshak) and the second in 2000(INS Sindhushastra), so your point of the youngest subs being 12 years old is plain rubbish.
		So unless they want to change their approach there is no need for another sub.
