Yes, an Indian tank will double as an infantry fighting vehicle with carrying capacity of 100 soldiers. Watch the surprise of Chinese commanders as hundreds of Indians soldiers come out of a single tank.

A single Indian train can carry one million passengers.
Virgin China needs to build over 40,000km of high speed rail to service its country. For Supapowa India, only a single train is necessary. Jai Hind!

Can they fit? Is their MTOW still combat useful after taking of from Vikrant?
MTOW is unlikely.
Fitting into the hangar, for now, seems to be more of a trick than operational capability - i.e. while there are simple ways to make it happen, they don't seem to work for operations at any significant tempo.

Basically, they really need that TEDBF capability. But at the same time, it feels like a jump too far, too soon for them.

Payload from a ski Jump isnt as bad as people as think it is ,but obv not at close what it can carry from a catobar
Mig29 can take something close to 5 tons in payload along with full fuel

we dont know the numbers of SH and rafale payload from ski jump

payload numbers like this is more than enough for A2A but limiting in antiship and a2g
PS-mig29k and SH can carry 2 ashms at once from a ski jump while rafale can carry only one

5 fuel tank should be able to carry 5500kg of fuel. it say there will be improved version for 57 aircraft for IN Navy but i have doubt any one building so many aircraft for export with so much inflation and fit to Indian budget that will degrade the quality of product. aviation is all about high reliability reputation.

The internal fuel tanks were larger than the baseline Fulcrum, holding 11,463lb of kerosene, equal to 6,666 litres of the single-seater, and featuring a 1,082lb/630- litre internal tank housed just behind the cockpit. Due to the placement of the rear cockpit, the MiG-29KUB’s internal capacity was 7% less. In addition to the internal tankage, the shipborne Fulcrum introduced a new 2,150-litre under fuselage fuel tank, as well as up to four 1,150-litre underwing drop tanks. The aircraft also features a fully-retractable inflight refuelling probe to the port of the windscreen and can also be used as a buddy tanker, equipped with a PAZ-1MK refuelling pod under the fuselage
In addition, Russia touts a significantly improved MiG-29K/ KUB derivative for the hotly-contested tender for 57 multi-role carrier-borne fighters (MRCBF), but selection of a winner is far in the future.

5 tanks.

If that was the case why is India so eager to replace the Mig-29K?

I dont see India replacing it. they will issue statements from time to time due to IN operating P-8. why should Boeing sell them P-8 if India is not willing to give Boeing total control over IN budget?.
India is wholly depended on Airbus and Boeing for air transport that itself is favor to India.
