The Indian Navy is set to induct five indigenously built naval platforms this month, marking a major boost to its fleet expansion and maritime capabilities. The new additions include two Project 17A stealth frigates—INS Dunagiri and INS Mahendragiri—a large survey vessel, and two anti-submarine warfare shallow water crafts. Built by leading Indian shipyards including GRSE, CSL, and MDL, these vessels will significantly enhance India’s combat readiness, coastal defence, and underwater surveillance. Equipped with advanced systems such as BrahMos missiles, Barak-8 air defence systems, and MF-STAR AESA radar, the new frigates strengthen India’s network-centric warfare capabilities. The expansion aligns with India’s long-term vision of a 200-warship and submarine fleet by 2035, reinforcing its maritime dominance in the Indian Ocean Region.
