Question

Which shipyards are building indian navy submarines?

Answer 1

India is set to sign a $3-billion deal with Russia to lease another nuclear attack submarine that will be customised and fitted with indigenous communications systems and sensors.  

The deal for the Akula class submarine — dubbed Chakra III after the first two similar vessels India obtained from Russia — will be the biggest signed with Moscow since the $5.5-billion contract for the S-400 air defence system was finalised last year.  

The vessel will be ready by 2025 after an extensive building programme on mothballed hulls at a Russian shipyard.
