Navy receives warship INS Saryu from GSL
New Delhi: The indigenously designed new 105 metre-class warship, INS Saryu was on Friday handed over to the Indian Navy by the Goa Shipyards Limited (GSL).
INS Saryu would be the largest offshore patrol vesselto be operated by the force.
"The warship was handed over by GSL Chairman Rear Admiral (Retd) Vineet Bakhshi to Commander Amanpreet Singh-- the CO-designate of INS SARYU in a simple ceremony in Goa," the shipyard said in a release.
The Offshore Patrol Vessel (OPV) will help meet the increasing requirement of the Navy for undertaking ocean surveillance and surface warfare operations in order to prevent infiltration and transgression of maritime sovereignty, it said.
The warship was one of the vessels ordered by the Defence Ministry after the 26/11 attack in Mumbai in 2008.
This vessel is suitable for monitoring sea lines of communication, defence of offshore oil installations and other critical offshore nationalassets, the release said.
It can also be deployed for escorting high value ships and fleet-support operations,it said. Designed and built by GSL, the warship is the culmination of many years of in-house design development and ship build techniques.

Oto Melara 76/62 Super Rapid

 

[Kunal Biswas]

Valcano 76/62 mm ER ammunution

It has a projectile equipped with an inertial/GPS mid-course guidance system and an IR homing guidance system, designed to engage naval targets at very long ranges.

The IR homing system, which is activated during the terminal attack phase of the flight, within a few kilometres of the target, allows final course correction. The hit probability is therefore extremely high, independent of the range.

Now with these advance in ammo technology on do not need Anti-ship Missiles to engage Ship at 70-90kms away and this technology is avilable in most Indian Navy Ships armed with Oto Melara 76/62 Super Rapid gun..

It has a projectile equipped with an inertial/GPS guidance system for the engagement of fixed coastal targets.The projectile is fired to a very high altitude and, during the intermediate phase of its trajectory, it performs a constant angle gliding descent that allows a considerable increase in range. By integrating the data coming from the inertial and GPS guidance systems, the projectile's control unit commands its canard control surfaces and steers it towards the target's position.

A variant to this configuration is being developed which, by making use of a semi-active laser (SAL) terminal guidance system, will allow the engagement of moving targets illuminated by an observer on the ground or by an UAV. In any case, the achievable accuracy is in the order of a few metres.

Its available for both 127mm gun as well as 76mm gun..
