India has commissioned three new naval ships, including a multi-role stealth frigate, an anti-submarine warfare platform, and a survey ship. The stealth frigate, named Dunagiri, is one of India's most advanced surface combatants, equipped with advanced weapons and stealth technologies.
The new warship is designed to perform air-defense, anti-surface, anti-submarine, and long-range strike missions simultaneously. The commissioning of these ships is part of India's efforts to accelerate its naval modernization and reduce its reliance on imports.
The three ships were built by a state-owned shipyard with about 75-80% domestic content, marking a significant achievement in India's efforts to increase domestic defense manufacturing. However, analysts note that India still depends on foreign suppliers for key technologies such as propulsion systems and naval radars.
