In a very candid Interview, CNS has set forth his vision on the growth trajectory of the Indian Navy and has assured that our Navy is surely and steadily moving forward on its well charted course as the net security provider in the region. The Navy’s second International Fleet Review, IFR-16, has been exhaustively covered in this edition, while presenting first-hand accounts of the challenges and achievements related to the conduct of the biggest-ever maritime event of the country. In celebrating the Golden Jubilee of the Submarine Arm, we have dedicated a Section ‘50 Glorious Years of the Submarine Arm’, with a few professional and light-hearted articles contributed by Veteran Submariners. In a poignant and heart-warming ceremony at INS Hansa, the venerable Sea Harriers of the Indian Navy were given a fond farewell, and MiG-29K, were inducted as White Tigers into Indian Naval Air Squadron 300. Quarterdeck presents nostalgic memoirs from the first and the last Commanding Officers of the Sea Harriers. A few other units and establishments will also celebrate their Diamond, Platinum and Silver Jubilees during 2017. We would like to gratefully acknowledge related contributions received from serving and retired officers. We also gratefully acknowledge the contributions made by the Signal School to commemorate the Birth Centenary of Late Admiral SN Kohli by compiling historical images, write-ups and personal tributes sent in by senior Veterans. I am truly delighted that Vice Admiral Ganesh Mahadevan has yet again enriched this magazine with his fascinating, colourful and vivid caricatures. I am truly thankful to him for making the illustrations available to us very promptly, year after year. An overwhelming response from contributors brings an Editor great joy, but also the vexed responsibility of excluding several contributions due to constraints of space. In this edition of Quarterdeck, I could not accommodate as many as 15 to 20 contributions and images. Therefore, I sincerely apologise for disappointing several enthusiastic contributors and thank them wholeheartedly for their support to our magazine. My utmost gratitude to Commodore Ajay Saxena, PDESA, Commodore SM Anwer, Additional PDESA, Commodore Sanjay Nirmal and their entire team for their invaluable help, assistance and encouragement, not only in the preparation of the magazine, but also in making sure that readers receive their copies wherever they may be. I wish you all prosperity, good cheer and sound health always. Happy reading! 4 CNS INTERVIEW Quarterdeck (QD).

Over 100 odd veterans mingled with the squadron crew, greeted each other, reminisced of operations over fifty years, with two different aircraft types four different specialisations (Anti-Submarine Warfare, Maritime Reconnaissance, Information Warfare, Para Dropping) and an operational area that had spanned from Mediterranean Sea to the Pacific, Jammu and Kashmir to Kanyakumari and from Rajasthan to Bangladesh. The celebrations started with the traditional Cake cutting and Bara Khana while INS Hansa put up an impressive air display on the occasion. The occasion was also marked with the IN sky diving team launching itself from the squadron's Para Dornier. Later in the evening a special cover and a coffee table book were released by Shri Digambar Kamat Chief Minister of Goa, in the presence of Admiral Nirmal Verma, the Chief of Naval Staff. The squadron is also hosting an International Seminar on 'Airborne Maritime Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR)” on 22 Mar 11. INAS 310 was commissioned on 21 Mar 1961 in Heyres, France by Lt Cdr Mihir K Roy (later Vice Admiral).
