I have visited her in Kochi..She does have some antique machinery inside. Other than that i have been informed, its all adjustments and jugaad inside. We dont have the tools and tackles to repair because all machinary became obsolete.

It is a pain in Navy's A-- to maintain her.

Its time to name her INS Jugaag!!...No offnce to her service, She deserves to be put to rest..How long will you drag her yaar..

some really weird comments here.

 

[Archie]

Why can't we give it to Pakistan for practicing operations of a Carrier in harbour before they get a carrier of their own in 2150!!!!!

good idea
but can they afford to pay 20 Million USD a yr to mentain it

 

[Lord Of Gondor]

INS Viraat should only be used as a Helicopter landing vessel and not a Jet fighter carrier as the jets are the mighty Harriers!We have just eight and it's not that great either!
