Indian Navy’s fifth stealth Scorpene class Submarine INS Vagir was commissioned into the Indian Navy earlier this year on 23rd January 2023 at the Naval Dockyard Mumbai.
Six Scorpene Class submarines are being built in India by the Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders Limited (MDL) Mumbai, under collaboration with M/s Naval Group, France.
INS Vagir would form part of the Western Naval Command’s Submarine fleet and would be another potent part of the Command’s arsenal.
