The Indian Navy has commissioned the INS Malvan, the second vessel in its Mahe-class series, at the Karwar naval base. This induction is part of a broader strategic initiative to strengthen the nation's submarine-hunting capabilities within the Indian Ocean.
Designed specifically for shallow-water anti-submarine operations and mine warfare, the vessel is the latest addition to a planned fleet of sixteen specialized ships. The deployment is intended to enhance India's maritime security posture and counter increasing naval activity in the region.
