Modernisation and acquisition of new assets is an ongoing process dictated primarily by capabilities to be achieved, threat perceptions, prevailing external strategic security environment, emerging technologies and availability of funds. Modernisation programme of the Indian Navy is being pursued in accordance with the Maritime Capability Perspective Plan (MCPP 2012-2027).
This information was given by Defence Minister Shri Arun Jaitley in a written reply to Shri Vijay Jawaharlal Darda in Rajya Sabha today.
