Kamorta Class : Analysis of India’s Deadly Anti-Submarine Corvette

The vessel in last picture has a dented surface. what could be cause of it?
To scatter radar waves,cocave surfaces,even american warships have it,you can clearly see then in tv series called thr last ship.
But im not expert in ship structure hopefull im not wrong.

Right - the faceted appearance reduces radar cross-section for stealth. Pretty common like in the case US Navy's DDG-1000 -

That's the Swedish Visby-class corvettes, made entirely of composites / FBR - the same technology being used to construct the superstructure of INS Kiltan and INS Kavaratti - Project 28A will be similar to the last two Kamorta-class corvettes in design -

Is that the design of the last two Kamorta class??

Can you confirm this is actually P28A? front section and i-mast makes me suspicious. @Penguin

Its criminal while discussing The Kamorta class not to mention that the class is developed with the goal of mastering various new technologies and their indigenization and thus its a great success, despite the delays.

The learning from this project is quite a tech jump for Indian ship building and the befits we will see in the years to come.
