In this article, a study on the newly commissioned ships and ships in development in the Chinese and Indian navies to analyze how the Chinese People's Liberation Army-Navy (PLA-N) and the Indian Navy view the other's modernization. It was argued that the Chinese and Indian navies' development can be explained by defensive realism and that they will take steps according to this view. It was predicted that the Indians will focus on developing a navy that can defeat the PLA-N in Indian-dominated waters, while the PLA-N will develop anti-submarine assets to counter the Indian nuclear triad.
