Submarine Hunters: GRSE to launch 8th and final anti-submarine warship
The New Indian Express Bhubaneswar
|July 21, 2025
THE country will mark a major milestone in indigenous shipbuilding on Monday as state-run Garden Reach Shipbuilders and Engineers (GRSE) launches the eighth and final Anti-Submarine Warfare Shallow Water Craft (ASW SWC).
The launch will be attended by Vice Admiral Kiran Deshmukh, Chief of Materiel, Indian Navy.
This final launch concludes GRSE's contract to deliver eight next-generation ASW SWCs as part of a broader initiative to strengthen India's maritime defence.
The launch is seen significant because of the increasing presence of submarines in the Indian Ocean Region (IOR), including regular deployments by Chinese and Pakistani naval assets. These vessels are designed to safeguard India's coastline and shallow waters against any threats.
