The 6,200t Satpura is likely to be commissioned in June-July, while the Russian-built 4,900t Teg will be ready for induction by September-October.

The Shivalik Class frigates are armed with the Russian Shtil surface-to-air missile systems, Klub anti-ship Cruise missiles and Israeli Barak-I anti-missile defence systems.
