*INS Tushil, Russia-Built Stealth Warship, Arrives in India*
INS Tushil, the Indian Navy’s latest multi-role stealth-guided missile frigate, reached its home port in Karwar on Friday, concluding a landmark voyage spanning over 12,500 nautical miles. The warship set sail from Kaliningrad, Russia, on December 18, making port calls in eight countries across three continents during its maiden journey. It will now be inducted into the Mumbai-based Western Naval Command.
Commissioned on December 9 in the presence of Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, INS Tushil is the first of two follow-on Project 1135.6 Krivak III-class frigates being procured from Russia. Singh described the warship as a “proud testament” to India’s growing maritime capabilities and a “significant milestone” in Indo-Russian defence cooperation.
