The systems for the steam turbine integrated with the reactor are supplied by Walchandnagar Industries. Arihant has four vertical launch tubes, which can carry twelve three per launch tube smaller K missiles or four larger K-4 missiles. The K-4 has a longer range of 3, kilometres and is still in development. Defense Professionals Daily claimed Arihant was launched without key systems including its nuclear reactor, surveillance equipment, and ordnance.

Walchandnagar Industries, a company specialising in execution of heavy engineering projects, designed parts of the steam turbine.
Arihant was launched for sea trials on 26 July and is due to be commissioned in During harbour acceptance trials, the nuclear power plant and auxiliary systems of the submarine will be tested for stability. The most crucial part of the trials will be the firing of the reactor. Once the reactor is fired all systems on board are tested on the inherent power of the submarine. Arihant will be taken for a series of high-speed runs during the sea acceptance trials and its various components will be tested at different depths, temperatures and pressure.
