  • De-Induction of Indian Navy's TU142M Aircraft and Induction of Boeing P 8 I Into INAS
    De-Induction Of Indian Navy’s TU142M Aircraft and Induction of Boeing P 8 I Into INAS 312 By : INVC Team Published On : 29 Mar, 2017 08:37 PM IST INVC NEWS New Delhi, After having served the Indian Navy with pride and élan for 29 years, during which it accomplished 30,000 hrs of accident free flying, the TU142M aircraft were given a befitting farewell in a special ceremony organised today (29 Mar 2017) at INS Rajali, India’s premiere Naval Air Station in Arakkonam, Tamil Nadu. The ceremony was attended by Admiral Sunil Lanba, PVSM, AVSM, ADC Chief of the Naval Staff, Vice Admiral HCS Bisht, Flag Officer Commanding-in-Chief, Eastern Naval Command, serving and retired officers and men, who have served in the INAS 312 and other senior officials from the Navy as well as from civil administration. Speaking on the occasion, Admiral Sunil Lanba lauded the stellar role played by TU142M aircraft in the defence of the country as a Maritime Reconnaissance and Airborne ASW aircraft. He recollected the crucial role played by the Squadron in Operation Cactus in Maldives, where fleeing mercenaries were detected and tracked till they were apprehended by Indian warships. The Admiral also mentioned the maiden participation by TU’s as the first Indian Naval Aircraft in the Republic Day flypast at New Delhi on 26 Jan 1999. He also acknowledged the professionalism of the pilots, the maintainers and all those personnel associated with flying and maintaining the aircraft in peak efficiency during their service.

  • Indian Navy's 'CAMPING' Expeditions in the Indian Ocean Region Author
    www.maritimeindia.org Indian Navy’s ‘CAMPING’ Expeditions in the Indian Ocean Region Author: R S Vasan Date: 06 April 2018 The year that has gone by is significant in many aspects for the Indian Navy’s operational deployment which has been demonstrated far and wide in the Indian Ocean Region (IOR). The time-tested formula of the navies of the world, namely, “Forward presence and posturing” can only be effective when it is applied continuously in a sustained manner to maintain a credible ‘Command Control and Communication’ architecture, which is driven by an effective information management system. The Indian Navy commissioned the Information Management and Analysis Communication (IMAC) system in November 2014, in Gurgaon, close to the capital. This has enabled information collation, analysis and dissemination in real time. New Horizons, New Deployment Pattern Commencing early last year, the Indian Navy has adopted a new form of extended deployment pattern by surface units which remain on patrol for up to three months before being relieved. There is a maritime surveillance architecture (MSA) led by the P8i Long Range Maritime Reconnaissance and Anti Submarine Warfare aircraft operating from INS Rajali in Arakkonam and the IL 38s operating from INS Hansa in Dabolim. These efforts are augmented by satellites, medium range surveillance platforms such as Dornier aircraft as also by UAV squadrons operated by the Navy. The requirement for such continuous deployment has been acutely felt with the increased presence of the PLA Navy (PLA-N) and also other maritime developments in India’s neighbourhood. It is a matter of concern that there is a near continuous presence of PLA-N surface and sub-surface units who are on variety of missions in the Indian Ocean, including, anti-piracy off the Somali Coast since 2008.
