...as well as an embarrassing deal that allowed key Japanese manufacturing technology to be exported to Russia in the 1980s...

That would be the sale by Toshiba of milling equipment for submarine screws (propellers), in case anyone's forgotten.

Akula's are pretty good boats.

Let's hope the Indian crew remains safe.

"The Akulas are not invincible. The Indian crew could get sloppy, and the Pakistani's could get lucky. "

Pakistan's only hope is they get lucky against our Viraat, Vikramaditya, Krivaks, Delhi class destroyers, Scorpenes, Akulas, ATVs..........
I am not sure you can get that lucky.

"The Mythical Indian SSN Goes to Sea"

For a minute I thought they were going to name a Virginia-class SSN "USS Manitou" or something...

I am sure that India has plans for SLBMs tipped with nuclear warheads.
