Armament

INS Khanderi (S22) is the second of the Indian Navy's six Kalvari-class submarines being built in India. It is a diesel-electric attack submarine which was designed by French naval defence and energy company DCNS and manufactured at Mazagon Dock Limited in Mumbai.[16]

The submarine inherits its name and pennant number from INS Khanderi (S22) which served in the Navy from 1968–1989, and was named after Maratha Emperor Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's island fort of Khanderi.

Construction

Commissioning of INS Khanderi

The construction started on 7 April 2009 at Mazagon Dock's Yard number Y11876 with the steel cutting ceremony. The five separate sections of the submarine were welded together, called "Boot Together", in November 2016. The submarine was launched in the presence of Minister of State for Defence Subhash Bhamre, Chief of the Naval Staff Admiral Sunil Lanba and other dignitaries on 12 January 2017. The submarine began its sea trials on 1 June 2017. The submarine was delivered to the Navy on 19 September 2019.[17][18]

The submarine was commissioned by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on 28 September 2019.[3]

Operational history

On 27 May 2022, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh conducted a sea sortie on INS Khanderi during his visit to Karwar Naval Base in Karnataka. During the sortie, Rajnath Singh was showcased the offensive capabilities of the submarine types through a wide range of operational drills with the submarine demonstrating the advanced sensor suite, combat system and weapon capability which provides it a distinct advantage in the subsurface domain.[19]
