Navy's blue-water capabilities get a double boost

NEW DELHI: In a double booster shot for country's blue-water combat capabilities Tuesday, the last Indian warship to be constructed abroad was commissioned as INS Tamal in Russia, while an indigenous stealth frigate was delivered to the Navy by Mazagon Dock (MDSL). Both the 3,900-tonne frigate INS Tamal and the 6,670-tonne frigate built by MDSL, which will be commissioned as INS Udaygiri next month, are packed with advanced sensors and weapons.
