In an apparent breach of security at the Cochin Shipyard Ltd (CSL), computer hardware, including hard disks, were reportedly stolen from India’s first ingenious aircraft carrier INS Vikrant.

Four hard disks, random access memory (RAM) and processor were stolen after dismantling four computers, which were installed in the aircraft carrier presently under construction at the shipyard.

Acting on a complaint by the Cochin Shipyard Ltd on Monday evening, the Kerala Police has formed a special investigation team to probe the case, Kerala Police chief Loknath Behra told India Today.

We have lodged an FIR and an SIT is probing the team. We are taking this seriously. We will not spare anyone who is involved, the Kerala Police chief said. Behra, however, refused to call the incident a security breach.


Security of the aircraft carrier is under the purview of CISF, which only has the mandate to prevent sea-borne attacks. Private security is deployed inside the ship from where the items were stolen.

As per sources, the incident could be the handiwork of an insider. Items stolen are small in size which can be easily carried out, sources have added. Investigators have revealed that there were no CCTV cameras inside the ship and surveillance sensors were also not fitted onboard. Sources a multi-agency probe has also been launched into the incident.

INS VIKRANT

The construction of the aircraft carrier, which will be the first indigenously aircraft built in the country, started in 2009 and was aimed to be completed and ready to be commissioned by 2021. Cochin Shipyard is the largest shipbuilding and maintenance facility in India.

The ship is expected to start sea trials from February 2021, and enter service by 2023. With the completion of INS Vikrant, India will join the ranks of countries like US, UK, Russia, France, and China in the construction of flight carriers.

If building one aircraft carrier need 15 years to complete and left without proper security anything can stolen. Thank god that the thief didn't take away the aircraft carrier.
