Russian news agency quotes a Russian Navy Staff Admiral confirming that a K-152 Nerpa attack submarine will be leased to the Indian Navy by October 2011. The quote was made with the condition of anonymity.
Previous reports had indicated that the submarine was already delivered to India. However now it appears that an Indian crew is undergoing training on-board with Russian instructors.
"The submarine is completely ready for transfer. An Indian crew is currently training aboard with Russian instructors,"
"This should be completed before October: We're running late as it is,"
