What's new

YARD 12701 updates

Its was launched on 30 March 2006 but induction is proposed in 2012. How come induction is taking so long ?? I don't think other warships take so long for induction. But its a sexxy warship...

That`s what I want to know.Because the last update on INS kolkata was when INS chennai was launched they said only 60% of the vessel was complete and they were about to fit brahmos and later that year they said the radar combo will also be installed.I don`t know now its been like a year already
 
INS Kolkata supposed to be inducted in 2010 but the Navy wanted lots of changes thats why delay. Above all LR-SAM has just started the tests, it will take time. So more delays expected. As usual MDL.

^^you have a point there.so barak 8 will be the main reason for the delay?why cant they just install them in its refit in the future.MDL should find a way

Launching is when the hull is floated out into the water. Then comes the next stage, fitting out. That is when the weapon, control and sensor systems are installed and extensively tested. Depending on both the size and future capability of the warship, that requires a specified time-frame. Only then is the ship inducted in to service/commisioned.

Looking at the 'Kolkata' class and reading the specs you will understand how that will play out.
