Auxiliary Ships of Indian Navy : News and Discussions

Yes, it is indeed an attractive option along with the 12 C-130J of RAF but our forces will not even bother thinking about considering them.

You know the worst thing to happen was we let go of those 2 Mistral class LHD which were meant for Russia and we'reater sold to Egypt. We could have done something about that but nah.
My guess is somewhere in the insurance front is where such acquisitions would get stuck, ie such collateral will be asked & terms that are not savvy with the navy/MoD.

Sanshodhak.

My guess is that the 1st batch of older sandhyak class will get replaced by these 4 ships.

For the remaining 4, we may see a follow on at a later date.

Hindustan Shipyard Limited has completed the Technical Evaluation and Financial Evaluation of vendors for procurement of DMR-249A steel for Fleet Support Ship (FSS).

Damn man,

Eagerly waiting for this deal to be signed as soon as possible. Hope, it gets signed this year.

BTW, how come we are getting all the information about steel for this project but not for other projects?
