India
is also producing Russian naval weapons and equipment under license. In
2003, Moscow and New Delhi signed the contract for licensed manufacturing
of 14 RBU-6000 anti-submarine multiple launch rocket systems (ASW MLRS)
for three Project-15A destroyers and four Project-28 frigates. The related
deliveries started in 2014. As of end-2015, Indian Navy got eight RBU-6000
ASW MRLS systems. In 2000, India started the licensed production of Russian Garpun air search radars (designated Aparna in Indian service). Nine Garpuns were initially supposed to be manufactured. By end-2014, seven radars had been delivered. The Garpun radars are intended for three Project-15A destroyers, three Project-16A (Brahmaputra) frigates and three Project-17 (Shivalik) frigates. The radars will be integrated with Kh-35 (SS-N-25 Switchblade) anti-ship missiles (ASM). © Copyright 2015 TASS. All rights reserved.
