Indian Navy को जल्द ही दुनिया का Most Powerful Warship मिलने जा रही है

Indian Navy को जल्द ही दुनिया का Most Powerful Warship मिलने जा रही है.

The Ministry of Defence has stated that the four Krivak-III class frigates the Indian Navy is buying from Russia will be armed with the BrahMos anti-ship cruise missile, reinforcing their reputation as the world‘s most heavily armed 4,000-tonne warships.

The MoD‘s apex procurement body, the Defence Acquisition Council, approved the procurement of BrahMos missile systems for the first two Krivak-III frigates (also designated Project 1,135.6), which are almost fully built in Yantar Shipyard, Russia.

The third and fourth frigates will be built at the Goa Shipyard under a transfer of technology agreement.
‘The DAC granted approval for procurement of indigenous BrahMos Missile for two Indian Navy ships to be built in Russia. The indigenously designed BrahMos Missile is a tested and proven supersonic cruise missile and will form the primary weapon on board these ships,‘ an MoD release stated.

BrahMos, a joint venture between Russia and India, assembles the missile in Hyderabad.

The Cabinet Committee on Security had approved the procurement of four frigates in October 2018, says the MoD. The price of the two ready built frigates has been agreed. The arrangements for building the next two in Goa are currently being negotiated.

Building in Goa will increase the cost, because of technology transfer, the cost of shipping raw materials and systems from Russia, establishing building infrastructure at the Goa Shipyard and indigenising parts of the warship.

The BrahMos systems for two ships approved, including the cost of the ‘vertical launch system‘ and missiles on board, are estimated to cost Rs 25 billion.

Russian sources close to the negotiations place the contract value for two ready-built Project 1135.6 frigates at under $1 billion (Rs 70 billion) — or Rs 35 billion each.

That means each vessel‘s BrahMos arsenal will amount to about a quarter of the cost of the warship, making it the world‘s most expensive anti-ship missile.

Separately, India is also negotiating a supplementary contract with Ukraine for the Zorya Gas Turbines that will power the four frigates.
