The Indian Navy has launched an indigenously built anti-submarine warfare corvette (ASWC) for sea trials at Garden Reach Shipbuilders and Engineers (GRSE).

The newly launched P-28 stealth Corvette is the first of a series of four under Project 28.

The ship, known as ASWC Kamorta, is a front-line warship with anti-submarine warfare capabilities and a very low radiated underwater noise signature.

The corvette features the latest indigenously developed sonar to detect submarines. It also includes warship torpedo tubes, improvised rocket launchers and scutter launchers for anti-submarine warfare.
