Long delay?!?! Are you serious?

The P17s are already in service in case you have been living in a cave for the past 3 years....
INS Shivalik

INS Satpura

INS Sahyadri

P17As are coming.... And we are likely to order more Talwar class stealth frigates from Russia. So we have enough frigates under construction.

after long delay of project -17 and project 17a Indian navy now looking for buy new frigates so vote please.

Where did you hear the IN was looking at inducting foreign Frigates? The IN has already recieved all 3 P-17 and work on P-17As has begun. These ships are arguable amongst the most capable Frigates on earth and the -17As even more so.

P-17A:

I highly doubt the IN will go for a 3rd type of new Frigate (with Talwar class and Shivlaik class already being in service) and by all accounts the next-gen Frigates will be designed in-house by the IN's Naval design dept (just as Shivlaik class). The IN is already looking ahead to the next-gen ships.


Need I remind you of this vid:

which will be a great
boost for the navy.
Well as of November
2011 , IN was looking to
purchase 3-4 more
Talwar class Frigates to
be build at Pippav
Shipyard under TOT, but
they changed their
mind since IN is now
more interested in
acquiring Large
Multirole Frigates like
the Shivalik class or
Type 26 Global combat
ship , Since they now
feel that instead of
having dedicated
Guided Missile Frigates
like Talwar class or
dedicated ASW Frigates
like Godavari class , it is
better to have single
6000 Ton Frigate
capable of performing
both roles
By the way , this is an
article from 2011
regarding Indo Russian
Naval partnership
An
Enduring Partnership:
Russian-Indian military
cooperation (Part 1:
naval cooperation)
Over the last decade,
India has gradually
emerged as the largest
customer for Russian
military exports. This
trend is in part the
result of the decline of
Russian arms sales to
China, as the latter
country increasingly
focuses on developing
its domestic defense
industry. But primarily
it is the result of a
significant expansion of
Indian defense
procurement over the
last decade. Given the
volume of contracts
already signed, India is
guaranteed to be the
Russian defense
industry’s biggest client
for the next four years.
Sales to India will
account for 55 percent
of all foreign defense
orders from Russia.
More significantly,
many of these
contracts are for joint
ventures that will tie
the two countries’
defense industries
closer together.
Ships and submarines
Cooperation between
the Indian and Russian
Navies has a long
history. India has
operated Russian and
Soviet built ships and
submarines since the
1960s. About half of
the Indian Navy’s major
surface combatants,
and about two-thirds of
its submarines, were
built in Russia or the
Soviet Union.
In recent years, India
has purchased six
Russian-built improved
Krivak-class frigates
(designated Talwar class
in India). This was the
first instance of Russia
exporting a ship that
was superior to the
domestic version of the
same class. The first
three of these, ordered
in 1997 and delivered in
2003-04 at a total cost
of one billion dollars,
were armed with Shtil
SAM systems and Club-
N missiles. The second
set of three was
ordered in 2004 because
of problems with
domestic warship
production in India.
These are being
delivered in the 2011-12
period at a cost of 1.56
billion dollars. These
new frigates are each
to be armed with eight
jointly developed
BrahMos supersonic
cruise missiles, a 100-
mm gun, a Shtil SAM
system, two Kashtan
air-defense gun/missile
systems, two twin 533-
mm torpedo launchers,
and an ASW helicopter.
The Indian navy retains
an option to buy
another three Talwar-
class frigates in the
future.
India also operates ten
Kilo class submarines,
purchased from the
Soviet Union and Russia
between 1986 and 2000.
Four of the submarines
have been modernized
at the Zvezdochka
shipyard in Severdvinsk,
which included a
complete overhaul of
its hull structures,
improvements to
control systems, sonar,
electronic warfare
systems, and an
integrated weapon
control system, as well
as adding 3M-54 Klub
(SS-N-27) anti-ship
Cruise missiles with a
range of 300km Range
to their
armament. Another 2
Kilo class Submarines
are currently
undergoing
Modernization , these
will be delivered in July
2012 and March 2013.
One more Kilo class Will
undergo Modernization
in yr 2014.
Over the years, India
has bought a number of
major Russian weapons
systems for
domestically built
Indian Navy ships.
These purchases have
included various types
of anti-ship and
surface-to-air missiles,
torpedoes, ASW rocket
launchers, and naval
guns. Most
significantly, the
Shivalik class frigates
and Kolkata class
destroyers are armed
almost entirely with
Russian weapons such
as the RBU-6000 rocket
launchers, SET-65E
torpedoes, 3M-54 Klub
anti-ship missiles, and
9M317 (SA-N-12)
surface-to-air missiles.
Russian design bureaus
assisted Indian
designers in developing
both of these ships.
The Severodvinsk
shipyard is nearing
completion on a long-
delayed project to
refurbish the former
Soviet aircraft carrier
Admiral Gorshkov,
which was sold to India
in 2004 and will be
renamed the INS
Vikramaditya. It
remains the largest
single piece of military
equipment ever
exported in the world.
Under the terms of the
original deal, India was
to receive the ship for
free in 2008, but would
have paid $970 million
for necessary upgrades
and refurbishment of
the ship, as well as an
additional $752 million
for the accompanying
aircraft and weapons
systems, which included
12 single-seat MiG-29K
and 4 dual-seat
MiG-29KUB aircraft, 6
Ka-31 reconnaissance
and Ka-28 anti-
submarine helicopters,
as well as a Kashtan
CIWS, 9M-311 SAMs,
torpedo tubes, and
artillery units for the
ship.
Recurring delays and
significant cost
overruns brought the
Indian side close to
canceling the deal,
though in March 2010
the two sides reached
an agreement under
which India agreed to
pay an addition $1.5
billion for the
retrofitting. According
to the new contract,
the carrier will be
transferred to India in
2012. As of July 2010,
all structural work has
been completed and
almost all large
equipment has been
installed, although
cabling work is
continuing. Since then,
the Severdvinsk
shipyard has stated
that the project
remains on schedule
and the ship will be
sent to India next year.
In December 2011,
Russia will officially
transfer an Akula-II
class SSN to India,
which will lease it for a
ten year period at a
cost of $25 million per
year. An Indian crew is
currently in Russia
being trained to operate
the sub and it is
expected to be
commissioned into the
Indian Navy in 2012.
The lease is the result
of a 2004 deal through
which India invested $
650 million in
completing construction
on the submarine. As
part of the deal, the
submarine received new
armaments, including
the Club-S missile
system. It was
originally due to be
transferred in 2008, but
technical problems
during the construction,
followed by a deadly
malfunction of the
automatic fire
extinguishing system
during sea trials,
delayed the transfer.
The Indian Navy has
the option to lease a
second partially built
Akula-II class
submarine. Hull 519 is
currently located at the
Amur shipyard at 60
percent completion. If
India exercises the
option to complete this
ship, it will invest $1.15
billion in completing its
construction.
Finally, Russian
designers have been
assisting the Indian
Navy in designing its
own domestically
produced nuclear
submarines, the Arihant
class. It is likely that
various components for
these submarines were
purchased from Russia,
though open source
information on details
of such sales is not
available.
Russia is competing to
be a part of future
Indian ship
construction. It has
offered a version of its
Admiral Gorshkov class
frigate as part of the
Indian Navy’s tender
for a follow-on to the
Talwar class frigates.
The plan is to build the
first ship of this class
at a foreign shipyard,
followed by three more
to be built in India
under license. Russia is
also planning to submit
the Amur submarine to
compete in a new
tender for six diesel
submarines, to be built
under license in India.

Try posting something that is readable mate. Or just link it. It's really weird to read like this

 

[Dash]

...
@OP we are not going for other types of frigates apart from Shivalik and Talwar class might be added. Our frigates are good enough.

 

[Sarjen]

oh, thanks guys, after reading the heading I really felt so frustrated...but you guys made my day back....finally I came to know it's a fake story, screw that guys one who came up with this news

 

[GR!FF!N]

source??post the link mate..and I think no need to procure new type of Frigates as we are already building Project 17A type frigates..so why induct another new type of frigate???

 

[Koovie]

He wont get a source because its nonsense. The only frigates which will be inducted into our navy (For the next decade) will be the P17As (P17s are already in service) and the Russian built Talwar class frigates (one is yet to arrive and its likely that they will build another further upgraded batch for us)

 

[king of pop]

read my post first.

 

[Frank Martin]

Duh, WTH.. It can't be true for sure, that even without a credible source to support this absurd claim?

 

[jha]

P-17A are still in planning stage. We may very well see some back door collaboration with DCNS. But thats just an speculation as of now.
