Gagan: good 3D rendering. Thank you.
The last rendering with explicit hump after the sail is incorrect.
Arihant clearly has a clean hydrodynamic shape, and the hull diameter increases much more gradually well before the sail (so gradual that is not immediately obvious)
If the missile storage has a diameter of 13m (as Chandragupta is suggesting), then IMHO A3SL will fit in without requiring any hump.

Infact it is.
but I can clearly see the difference between the renderings and the picture that was posted in Ubber Personified Antogonists pdf.The one in pdf has no hump but has a smooth back after its sail much like a Typhoon class.
It took decades for India just to achieve this,else we might have gone with a large hump on the back to accomodate lengthy missiles like the chinese way <img src='http://www.india-forum.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> on a sub with small diameter.
Ramana,
didnt you noticed the difference between Gagans render and original(so called) file picture which has no hull except that distinct borad day sun light casting a shadow.
Also so much for the nuke sub to be featured in Ultras pdf.This is alike taking credit of someones achievement.
Arun,
It was said that the follow-on subs will be quiet larger in both lenght and diameter.And there was also this murmering that SLBM will be longer than this 13 m.I am speculating on the move from the standadised 2 m dia for the SLBM.
Rhetorically our long range missiles call for heavy payload capabilities will farther ranges,I expect the SLBM to be inline with A-V except the fact that baseline specifications like length and diameter varry to accomodate the range and payload.
and we ofcourse are looking at an MIRV for that <img src='http://www.india-forum.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
