Arunji,
1. Your article on the deterrent also suggests that access to a high energy laboratory facility would suffice to confirm that the fixed TN is indeed fixed and make the TN credible. Is this route close to being as good as a field test ?
2. What about the SLBM warheads ? Are they too, based on this corrected TN or are they different, requiring fresh field tests ?
3. Will TSP/Chn be aware of our access to Russian/French high energy facilities if there is such access (your post above suggests there is)? Will this awareness make our TN credible in their eyes ?
4. If the answers above are "yes", dosent it make sense to deploy the corrected TN ? Dr. Santhanam suggests it is not while Dr. AK suggests several of them are. Which is true ? Makes sense to deploy the corrected TN in any case....more so if access to high energy facilities confirms the fix.
