Why its called FAC, where are the weapons.
as per article its FIC, a lot of difference is there b/w the terms FAC and FIC.
First and third pic boat isn't india..flag tells it all.
Thanks for pointing out, corrected the post.
My typo mistake.
This is just picture of the model of FIC we are getting.

Here is the link for the first four FIC being inducted into Southern command

INS Shakti- A Deepak Class replenishment oiler near Vizag Beach



Had an opportunity to be on board this vessel....man you should see the ship....the interior is completely like the five star hotel, every thing is of excellent quality and top notch, be it the paint job or the control room

Slippers are good on ships. They give you better grip on wet decks than hard soled shoes. Also open slippers have far less chance of fungal infection on toes like "jungle rot". That's why Navy used to have soft rubber soled canvas shoes as standard uniform.
