NC-I RAJAPARVATHI. K TN19SWN928732 4[TN]NTU NCC JEPPIAAR SRR ENGINEERING COLLEGE, PADUR CHENNAI-603103 THE FUTURE OF OUR NAUSENA The Indian Navy is the naval branch of the Indian Armed Forces. Our navy planned to develop our forces in future. By the end of the 2020, the Indian Navy expects to have over 150 ships and close to 500 aircraft. In addition to the existing mission of securing both sea flanks in the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian sea, the navy would be able to respond to emergency situations far away from the main land. The Indian Navy has initiated Phase II expansion of INS Kadamba, the third largest naval base, near Karwar. Phase II will involve expansion of the berthing facilities to accommodate 40–45 more front-line warships, including the aircraft carrier INS Vikramaditya, raise manpower to 300 officers and around 2,500 sailors, and build a naval air station with a 6,000-foot runway. This is to be followed by Phase IIA and IIB, at the end of which INS Kadamba will be able to base 50 front-line warships. The Indian Navy is also in the process of constructing a new naval base, INS Varsha, at Rambilli for its Arihant Class submarines. India plans to construct a pair of aircraft carriers. The first, INS Vikrant, was launched in 2013 by Cochin Shipyard and undocked in June 2015. It is expected to be completed by February 2021 and undergo extensive sea trials thereafter with commissioning planned for end of 2021.The second ship, INS Vishal , will displace around 65,000 tonnes and is expected to be delivered to the Indian Navy by late 2030s. With the future delivery of Vishal, the Navy's goal to have three aircraft carriers in service, with two fully operational carriers and the third in refit, will be achieved. The Indian Navy is planning to procure 22 General Atomics Sea Guardian drones at an estimated cost of $2 billion. This is the first instance of General Atomics drones being sold to a non-NATO military. Lets begin the future of our navy by new innovations. JAI HIND! .

Berlin ne of the key milestones in world history has been the rise to prominence Oof new and influential states in world affairs. The recent trajectories of China and India suggest strongly that these states will play a more powerful role in the world in the coming decades.1 One recent analysis, for example, judges that “the likely emergence of China and India ...asnewglobal players—similar to the advent of a united Germany in the 19th century and a powerful United States in the early 20th century—will transform the geopolitical landscape, with impacts potentially as dramatic as those in the two previous centuries.”2 India’s rise, of course, has been heralded before—perhaps prematurely. How- ever, its ascent now seems assured in light of changes in India’s economic and political mind-set, especially the advent of better economic policies and a diplo- macy emphasizing realism.

Navy News Week 10-2
NAVY NEWS WEEK 10-2 5 March 2018 Winter in the Frisia for Culdrose Sea King on its final mission over Europe 22/02/2018 For the last time a Royal Navy Sea King has appeared in European skies after completing its final mission on the Continent. For two weeks, a helicopter from 849 Naval Air Squadron at Culdrose has been directing the actions of supersonic F-16 jets over the North Sea and northern Holland – a key stepping stone for working with the UK’s new F-35 stealth fighters in a couple of years time. It’s the task of 849 with their distinctive radar-equipped helicopters to scour the skies for threats to a naval group – and to direct interceptors such as the F-16 Falcons in for the kill if necessary. It took the veteran helicopter eight hours to cover the 500 miles from its base in western Cornwall to Leeuwarden in Frisia, north-eastern Netherlands. A 40-strong detachment of air and ground crew was dispatched to the Dutch Air Force Base for Exercise Skinners’ Gold 4 – an exercise the squadron has attended in previous run-outs. The Sea King Mk7 flew eight night missions with its observer/radar operator in the back of the helicopter choreographing the movements of up to four Dutch jets at a time either using voice commands (English is the common language of the skies) or by using the military’s data-sharing system, Link 16. The Brits guided their Dutch colleagues to intercept up to half a dozen ‘enemy’ jets at a time – which proved to be an invaluable training for 849, particularly as the scenarios played out over Dutch and North Sea skies could not to be recreated back in the UK.

Aircraft Carriers – Glug Glug Glug….. Really? Significance of Carrier Borne Airpower for India
www.maritimeindia.org Aircraft Carriers – Glug Glug Glug….. Really? Significance of Carrier Borne Airpower for India Author: Dinesh Yadav Date: 23 July 2018 In his recent article published by the Lowy Institute, titled “Glug, Glug, Glug: India’s interest in unsinkable Aircraft Carriers”, David Brewster1, probes India’s medium term plan to develop into a three carrier fleet. Brewster cites huge costs (acquisition, maintenance and operational) and vulnerability issues attached with the Carrier Task Force (CTFs) in support of his assertion and, as an alternative, advocates the use of ‘unsinkable’ island bases as cheaper and more effective options. Dismissing flat-tops as vulnerable status symbols for India, the author recommends the deferment of INS Vishal and instead, use the freed-up capital in shoring up India’s military capabilities in the Andaman and Nicobar (A&N) and Lakshadweep island chains. India currently operates only one carrier, INS Vikramaditya (erstwhile Admiral Gorshkov of the Soviet/ Russian Navy). Whilst India’s first indigenous aircraft carrier, INS Vikrant (IAC-I) is being built by Cochin Shipyard (CSL) and is likely to be commissioned in end 20202, India has already embarked on its follow-on induction3, likely to be named as INS Vishal (IAC-II), and expected to be much larger and more potent. A three-carrier force would allow the Indian Navy to operate one CTF on each of its seaboard at all times, with the third carrier involved in refit or maintenance. Bang for Buck – Misplaced Example of Great Britain The Royal Navy currently operates4 only one Aircraft Carrier, HMS Queen Elizabeth (commissioned in December 2017).

A Pilgrimage to the Sea
DOI 10.22491/1809-3191.v24n1.p40-67 INDIA’S OCEANOPOLITICS: A PILGRIMAGE TO THE SEA Rafael Regiani1 ABSTRACT The increasing dependence of sea-imported oil, as well as the increasing presence of China in the Indian Ocean region, led India to also focus its attention on the sea. This interest became clearer in the diplomatic initiative called Sagar Yatra. India’s rise in the Indian Ocean seems like a natural destiny due to the prominent position of the Hindustanic Peninsula in the basin and its rich maritime history built in Antiquity. This rich sea trade network fueled by the monsoon system is recovered now by the Mausam Project. This paper analyses the oceanopolitics of the Modi government. The theoretical framework is provided by historian K. M. Panikkar. As source, we used all available and reachable material, such as books, journals, or websites. Keywords: India. Indian Ocean. Sagar Yatra. Mausam Project. 1 Mestrando. Pesquisador na Universidade de São Paulo (USP), São Paulo - SP, Brasil. E-mail: [email protected] R. Esc. Guerra Nav., Rio de Janeiro, v. 24, n.1 , p. 40-67. jan./abril. 2018. Rafael Regiani 41 “The Indian Ocean region is one of my main political priorities. Our approach is evident in our ‘Sagar’ view, which means ‘ocean’ and represents security and growth for all in the region. We will continue to pursue and promote our geopolitical, strategic, and economic interests in the seas, especially in the Indian Ocean” – Narendra Modi INTRODUCTION The Indian Ocean is of paramount importance to the global economic system, since in a portion of its waters lies the Persian Gulf, the main world oil region, and through the Arabian Sea much of this oil production is sold to the European and American markets.

INS Vikramaditya
INS Vikramaditya History : Baku entered service in 1987, and was renamed Admiral Gorshkov in 1991, but was deactivated in 1996 because she was too expensive to operate on a post-Cold War budget. This attracted the attention of India, which was looking for a way to expand its carrier aviation capabilities.On 20 January 2004, after years of negotiations, Russia and India signed a deal for the sale of the ship. The ship would be free, while India would pay US$800 million for the upgrade and refit of the ship, as well as an additional US$1 billion for the aircraft and weapons systems. The navy looked at equipping the carrier with the E-2C Hawkeye, but decided not to. In 2009, Northrop Grumman offered the advanced E-2D Hawkeye to the Indian Navy. The deal also included the purchase of 12 single-seat Mikoyan MiG-29K 'Fulcrum-D' (Product 9.41) and four dual-seat MiG-29KUB aircraft (with an option for 14 more aircraft) at US$1 billion, six Kamov Ka-31 "Helix" reconnaissance and anti-submarine helicopters, torpedo tubes, missile systems and artillery units. Facilities and procedures for training pilots and technical staff, delivery of simulators, spare parts, and establishment maintenance on Indian Navy facilities were also part of the contract. The upgrade involved stripping all the weaponry and missile launcher tubes from the ship's foredeck to make way for a "short take-off but arrested recovery" (STOBAR) configuration, converting the Gorshkov from a hybrid carrier/cruiser to a pure carrier. Vikramaditya (left) alongside the Russian aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov in the port of Severomorsk in 2012 The announced delivery date for INS Vikramaditya was August 2008, which would allow the carrier to enter service just as the Indian Navy's only light carrier INS Viraat retired.

Defence Minister has recently visited the Karwar Naval Base in Karnataka to inspect infrastructure development under Phase II of “Project Seabird”. Q. What is Project Seabird? A. The largest naval infrastructure project for India, Project Seabird involves the creation of a naval base at Karwar on the west coast of India. INS Kadamba is an Indian Navy base located near Karwar in Karnataka. The first phase of construction of the base was code-named Project Seabird and was completed in 2005. INS Kadamba is currently the third-largest Indian naval base and is expected to become the largest naval base in the eastern hemisphere after the completion of expansion Phase IIB. Q. Why need such a base? A. During the Indo-Pakistan War of 1971, the Indian Navy faced security challenges for its Western Fleet in Mumbai Harbour due to congestion in the shipping lanes from commercial shipping traffic, fishing boats and tourists. At the end of the war, various options were considered on addressing these concerns Upon completion, it will provide the Indian Navy with its largest naval base on the west coast and also the largest naval base east of the Suez Canal. The Navy’s lone aircraft carrier INS Vikramaditya is based at Karwar. 2 Green Hydrogen Q. Why is this in news ? A. Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) is investing Rs 75,000 crore in its new business focused on clean energy, which includes solar and green hydrogen.

Jump Jets for the ADF? 78
STRATEGIC INSIGHTS Jump jets for the ADF? 78 Richard Brabin-Smith and Benjamin Schreer Is there a case for Australia to acquire F-35B Joint Strike Fighter short take-off, vertical landing (STOVL) aircraft to operate from the two new Canberra-class landing helicopter docks (LHDs)? The government has directed that this question be addressed in the development of the 2015 Defence White Paper. This report is an independent assessment of the costs and potential benefits of such an acquisition. Reintroducing organic naval air power into the ADF would be a big strategic decision, and very complex and expensive, so it’s important to have a clear view of the circumstances in which it might be beneficial enough to be worth pursuing. And it’s important to be aware not only of the direct costs but also of the potential risks and opportunity costs. Overall, this report concludes that the benefits would be marginal at best, wouldn’t be commensurate with the costs and other consequences for the ADF, and would potentially divert funding and attention from more valuable force structure enhancements. An F-35B test aircraft lands vertically aboard the USS Wasp at night on 15 August 2013. © Lockheed Martin November 2014 2 Jump jets for the ADF? STOVL jets and their potential Carrier-based aviation could provide a future government with greater military flexibility in regional and global contingencies. A carrier enables the projection of air power independently of land bases, thereby enhancing political freedom to manoeuvre without relying on the agreement of host nations. Proximity to the area of operations can also allow a more rapid response to tactical developments than might be available from land-based aircraft.
