Livefist: INS Tarkash Arrives In India
The Indian Navy's brand new Krivak-II class stealth frigate arrived off the coast of Mumbai today to join the Western fleet. The ship sailed from Russia to the UK and back via Oman. The first of the follow-on three frigates, INS Teg, was commissioned in April this year. More details about the class of ship here.Livefist: The Making Of INS Teg

I don't think any front line ships are planned to be decommissioned in the near future.
Rajputs and Godavari class should be the next i guess but may b not before 2020.

Comments ?

Re: The Indian Navy's brand new Krivak-II class stealth frigate arrive

So are these ffgs specialised for aaw/asw or are they intended to be a jack of all trades?

Another Q: Do these FFGs have any intended role as carrier escorts or are these solely the responsibility of the P17/17A and P15/15B?

Hope IN should get these guns in Future boats...
Duet AK-630M2

Dont know about ships but we certainly could fit them near loc.
Any terrorist found in its crosshairs wont need no cremation.
And if the rangers decide to get naughty,he he he....
Also i would request the IN to loan one to the bsf in indo-bangla border,would be a good live testing ground.
