Navy statement

The Indian Navy's latest indigenous guided missile destroyer INS Surat has successfully carried out a precision cooperative engagement of a sea-skimming target, marking a significant milestone in strengthening the Navy's defence capabilities.

This achievement demonstrates the India's growing prowess in indigenous warship design, development, and operations, and underscores the nation's commitment to self-reliance in defense manufacturing.

This milestone is a testament to the Indian Navy's unwavering commitment to safeguarding the nation's maritime interests and its dedication to Aatmanirbhar Bharat.
