Indian Navy Developments & Discussions

i think this one is a gone case the internals would be flooded with seawater mast and radar are probably damaged

it was going for refit either way,hope she joins service again

 

[125mm_Smoothbore]

I don't have any hope with our Indian workforce. There is simply no adherence to Discipline and Protocols anywhere, sab jugaad se chal raha hai!

psu and manufacturing doesnt go good with each other we probably lost more ships due to accidents rather than actual wars

 

[vampyrbladez]

According to sources in the Indian Navy, the ship has suffered extensive damage.

Salvage operations would be undertaken to refloat the vessel.

When it comes to military incompetence our condition is even worse than iran . At least iranians don't lack balls.

Bruh. Even Bidenwa will not fall like this.

Rare Navy Failure.

Speaking as a google-er, but it might be that the antiroll tanks ruptured due to the fire, and while trying to douse out that fire, they pumped enough water to actually destabilize the ship.

Stability at Shipboard Fires

Land-Based Firefighter talking to a ship’s Master… “Well, the fire went out”…. “Yeah but you sank my ship!”…. “I know that, but the fire did go out!” There have been many tragic stories of fire departments valiantly fighting a fire aboard a large ship for hours, and even days, only to have the...

These are probably not used in warships. I think they use fin stabilizers only.

Damn there goes 3-6 years or probably unservisable

It's gone mate
It's one side is completely into the water most of the critical systems would have been damaged including radar and if u look at image mast has hit the concrete ig and completely broken

black-pilling nature of Indians needs to be researched on, it's not like indian navy is only navy that loose ships in peace time, look at chinese navy 55 sailors died in this accident, Russians are also in their own league

The curious case of the PLAN 093-147

Trapped in the aft compartment of a nuclear submarine sitting on the bottom of the Barents Sea, a young Russian officer penned a note

That accident happened when undocking was happening from it's dry dock
So it's systems were not submerged in huge amount of water or basically lesser interaction with water but here I don't think that's the case

There is no need to blackpill here bcoz these things are critical every nation go through it
Even USN have experienced fire incidences
Infact Navy is very much particular about it
If I remember they court martialed few officers for ins betwa accident

Unfortunately true.

Mumbai Dockyard sees way too many mishaps. Are there some saboteur/saboteurs inside who have not been detected so far? Need to have strong background checks there

 

[RaMdAs]

Didn't this shipyard have a similar incident in 2016 where 2 sailors died?
Edit: It was 2013 and 18 sailors died!

Yep, in 2016 INS Betwa (2nd Brahmaputra class frigate) listed while in drydock, took them almost 2 years and a US company to refloat it

Ignorance, Negligence and Incompetence of workers and officers. In 2016, INS Betwa incident 2 officers were court martialed for negligency.

It's just matter of money ( Cost of salvage and repair, and after repair it's service life etc. and very important condition of ships hull), If Navy determines it's (repairing INS Brahmaputra) reasonable they will do it. Any way she was due for major MIL and Engine replacement soon.

 

[Suryavanshi]

Although I want to give them a benefit of doubt, it has happened way to many times and it keep happening again and again.

There was this post on 4chan from a US navy office who narrated that Indian Navy does it work in a juggad manner. Exposed wires was one of the major nitpick. Could it be this was a electrical mishap that led to fire.

Do warships go turtle like this?

Listing of INS Betwa was due to malfunctioning of the docking blocks IIRC. Too early to speculate on the reasons behind INS Brahmaputra's listing. In the event INS Betwa returned to service ~ 3 years later after the repair , refit & upgradation. INS Brahmaputra too will return to active service.

How did a 4,000 ton Indian warship tip over while undocking?
