Submarine: fourth Scorpène unit for India launched

In total, the Hindus ordered six of the above-types, which are licensed in India by virtue of the translation of technology. Prototypic INS Kalvari He was introduced to the service in December 2017 and three more were already called up. INS Vela, is scheduled to line in 2020. The rest of the pair are at the stage of building the long-term segments, according to the pla­s, to be called in 2020 – 21.

Ships of type Scorpène are expected to significantly strengthen the potential of the Indian Navy. There is a chance that the Naval Group will supply a second transit Scorpène, because within the framework of the 75I project India is also interested in the construction of the next six circuits of the AIP and in the distribution of possible transmission of maneuverary trains.
