Final Stealth Frigate INS Mahendragiri to boost Navy’s edge in Indian Ocean with advanced firepower

INS Mahendragiri, the final stealth frigate under Project 17A, will be delivered to the Indian Navy by Feb 2026, according to Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders Limited (MDL). This delivery marks a major step in India’s push for self-reliance in defence manufacturing. The vessel is being built using advanced integrated construction techniques and is equipped with cutting-edge stealth capabilities. Designed for multi-dimensional warfare, it features BrahMos-class surface-to-surface missiles, surface-to-air weaponry, and anti-submarine systems. Project Executive Jay Varghese highlighted the frigate’s indigenous rocket launchers and combat systems, enhancing India’s naval strength across all domains. Notably, 75% of the ship's equipment is indigenously sourced, showcasing the progress of the ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’ initiative. INS Mahendragiri exemplifies India's growing expertise in designing and building high-tech warships using domestic technology and talent.
