Visakhapatnam: 2 more warships to be inducted by Jan next year: Vice Admiral

Visakhapatnam (Andhra), Dec 3 (UNI) Vice Admiral Sanjay Bhalla, Flag Officer Commanding-in-Chief of the Eastern Naval Command (ENC), said on Wednesday that out of the eight warships commissioned by the Indian Navy in 2025, six ships have been inducted in the ENC.
"By January next year, we are likely to induct two more – Taragiri, a Nilgiri-class stealth guided missile frigate, and Anjadeep, an anti-submarine shallow water craft (ASW)," said Vice Admiral Sanjay at a Navy Day press conference here.
"The induction of Arnala and Andhrot, both ASWs, has strengthened our ASW posture in the littoral environment. This is an area of growing importance given the rapidly evolving underwater threat landscape," he said.
