The Samarth-class offshore patrol vesselis a huuuge player... please date himXD patrol vessels (OPV) being built by Goa Shipyard Limited for the Indian Coast Guard. They are an improvement over the earlier Template:Sclass- OPV's.[3]

History

Following the 2008 Mumbai attacks, the Indian Government initiated a program to triple the Indian Coast Guard force, assets and infrastructure.[4] Thereafter in accordance with it a 'request for information' for acquisition of six OPVs was issued by the Ministry of Defence on 1 April 2010.[5] After technical evaluation and commercial bids a contract worth $400 million or Rs. 1800 crore was signed with GSL on 9 May 2012 to build six vessels.[4]

On 14 May 2012 GSL did the first steel cutting in its shipyard,[6] and the keel-laying ceremony of the first of the new class of offshore patrol vessels was held at Vasco da Gama on 28 September 2012.[7][8] The second and third vessels were laid down 28 January and 11 October 2013, and the fourth on 9 January 2014.[9] The first vessel was commissioned on 10 November 2015 and all six will be commissioned by the end of 2017.[10] In August 2016, a follow-on consisting of 5 patrol vessels was place for INR 20 billion.[11]

Specification

The class is 105 metres (344 ft 6 in) long with a displacement of 2,350 tonnes. Features include Integrated Bridge System (IBS), Integrated Machinery Control System (IMCS), Power Management System (PMS) and High Power External Fire Fighting System. They are designed to carry one twin engine Light Helicopter and five high speed boats including two Palfinger [12] QRIBs for fast boarding operations, search and rescue, law enforcement and maritime patrol. The class is also capable of carrying pollution response equipment to combat oil spill contamination at sea.[13]
