Moreover, India is working to safeguard its naval superiority over China. In August, the reactor aboard India’s first indigenously built nuclear submarine, INS Arihant, was activated, bringing the country one step closer to realizing its long-sought goal of a “nuclear triad” – the capability to launch nuclear weapons from land, air, and sea.
此外，印度还在努力捍卫其对中国的海军优势。8月，印度第一艘本土制造的核潜艇歼敌号（Arihant）核反应堆点火，距离实现其长期追求的“核三位”（从陆地、空中和海中发射核武器）目标又近了一步。三天后，印度第一艘航空母舰维克兰特号（Vikrant）下水。
