India's Submarine Evolution: Powering the Future of Naval Defense !
India's journey in strengthening underwater capabilities is transformative, led by three key projects:
➡️ Project 75 (1997): India's first step in building conventional submarines with French collaboration, developing Scorpene-class submarines, the backbone of India's submarine force.
➡️ Project 75I: Builds on experience, developing six advanced diesel-electric submarines with:
- Indigenous expertise
- Air-Independent Propulsion (AIP) for longer endurance
- Advanced stealth and sensor technology
Aim: Elevate submarine capabilities, reduce foreign dependence, and boost naval prowess.
➡️Project 76: Country’s first indigenously conventional diesel-electric submarine redefines submarine warfare with next-generation vessels featuring:
- New designs
- Enhanced AIP
- Cutting-edge stealth and sensor technology
Aim: Achieve strategic autonomy, ensuring India's maritime dominance with indigenous technology.
The Big Picture: Project 75I refines existing designs, while Project 76 introduces new, cutting-edge designs, securing India's place as a leader in naval defense through innovation, self-reliance, and strategic foresight.
Note : As of August 21, 2024, both Project 75I and Project 76 are under construction in India !
