India Launches Fourth Nuclear Submarine, S4
Summary: India launched its fourth nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine (SSBN), S4, at the Ship Building Centre in Visakhapatnam, marking a significant step in its naval capabilities. Part of India’s SSBN program, S4 is larger and more advanced than its predecessors, capable of carrying K-4 submarine-launched ballistic missiles with a range of 3,500 km. This launch enhances India’s nuclear triad, allowing it to launch nuclear weapons from land, air, and sea. India’s SSBN program supports its Credible Minimum Deterrence strategy, with future plans for nuclear attack submarines to monitor the Indo-Pacific region.
