INS Kiltan, an anti-submarine warfare corvette of the Indian Navy, completed a deployment in the South China Sea, visiting countries like Vietnam and Brunei. Built by Garden Reach Shipbuilders in Kolkata, the ship showcases advanced technology, including a composite superstructure that enhances stealth and reduces maintenance costs. This deployment demonstrated India’s shipbuilding capabilities, fostering bilateral ties and promoting potential exports. The vessel’s stealth features, derived from carbon-fiber composites, make it difficult to detect, thereby increasing its operational effectiveness and survivability.
