Per this Times Now article 6 minesweepers are to be built domestically

Navy's Big Move To Keep Ports Free Of Mines During Wartime - Exclusive

The New Generation Destroyers will be largely indigenous (perhaps more than 80 percent of each warship) even if the engine, which is roughly eight percent of the cost, is imported. , India News News - Times Now

www.timesnownews.com

No other patrakar has covered this news so it could be made up.

Alternatively Op Sindoor might have blasted the MCMV to the top of Admiral's priority list, since i'm sure there was the fear in the back of their mind of a Piglet submarine slipping by and mining Chennai/Mumbai/Vizag etc harbors, so it could be the TN patrakar has got the scoop before anyone else.

Wonder how much brahmos this will carry and in what format?
From the screengrab of 3d model we could see like 2 blocks of VLS so it is 16x MRSAM.
Oto Melara 76mm gun is given.

i hope they start using modular methods so that our time taken to build from keel laying can compete with east asia and chinese speed

 

[liberalredditor]

how does this design compare to our stealth designs?

Cochin Shipyard apparently

8 VLS or 16 NASM-MR
32 VL-SRSAM or 24 MR-SAM

Best part, propulsion would be indigenous (built by Kirloskar).

Already done with Shivalik class.
It was Navy requirement so GRSE/MDL had to rope in Fincantieri of Italy for ToT of modular fabrication and assembly

btw any of y'all nibbiars know about the procedure to integrate our deshi weapons with MF-STAR radar?

Have the Jews given us the "source codes" so navy can do this integration themselves via the WESEE department

Or is the ((( French model ))) followed where an eye watering sum is paid to them to integrate our weapons into radar?

I think it's the former since OSINT nibbas say AK630 and 76mm SRGM both controlled by MFSTAR since you can't see their original FCRs in the modern ships.

I am asking this because assuming 8 NGC are built, it will take the total to 22 MFSTARs in operation in navy, 7 from P15A&B destroyers, another 7 from Nilgiri and the 8 of NGC.

The Radar has CEC wagera, that's the reason navy chose it, it would be very good if we can integrate our own stuff easily without jewish OEM being involved, would save money, time and most importantly cut off any dependencies.
