Project-18 Destroyer

MDL is the only Indian shipyard having experience & expertise to build destroyers. At present, MDL is executing the Project 15B Visakhapatnam-class destroyers which will complete by the year 2024. MDL has also started discussion with Indian Navy on Next Generation Destroyer(NGD). During its investor call of Q1 FY23, the firm has informed that a total of 8 NGDs will be build under two phases. The entire project is estimated to worth $10 Billion. MDL is procuring a new floating dry dock to accommodate the massive 10,000 tonnes Next Generation Destroyers (NGD).

DRDO’s long range multifunction radar (LRMFR)

The most noticeable change in the Project-18 class destroyers is going to be their radars. In almost all latest naval warships, we can see Israel’s MFSTAR mast-mounted radar. This will be likely to be replaced with DRDO’s long range multifunction radar (LRMFR).

INS Anvesh, a technology demonstration vessel (TDV) being built for DRDO at Cochin Shipyard Limited (CSL) has been fitted with a housing for a new type of dual-panel long-range radar system by LRDE called Long-Range Multi-Function Radar (LRMFR). It is an active phased array radar with a range more than 500 km & features octagonal faceplates that are approximately 5.5–6 m in diameter. Therefore, instead of mast mount radar, NGD may feature a multi-faced Active Phased Array Radar (APAR) based on LRMFR. The NGD will require 2 types of main APAR radars – one for shorter-wavelength & another one for longer-wavelength. LRMFR will perform the role of target tracking to fire control for SAMs/BMD. The NGD will feature HUMSA-NG - a third generation ship borne, hull mounted, Sonar system developed by DRDO and productionised by BEL.

NGD Weapons & fire

The Next Generation Destroyer will be built to fire the arrays of indigenous weapons for anti-surface, anti-submarine and land attack roles. With 128 VLS, the warship will have massive fire power. The key weapons of the destroyer will be BrahMos Missile, BrahMos-NG, LRSAM-ER, Nirbhay/ITCM LACM, MRSAM, XRSAM & VL-SRSAM & AAD. The destroyer will also be equipped with lighter version of SMART ASW missiles for taking on enemy submarines & Advance Torpedo Decoy system. The missile has a range of 643 km (400 mi) carrying a lightweight torpedo of range 20 km (12.5 mi) with 50 kg high explosive warhead. The 533mm Varunastra (or some future version of it) is likely to be the main torpedo armament. NGD may also feature a UVLS (Universal VLS) which will eliminate the need of multiple missile launchers. It will feature a 127mm main Naval gun and three 76mm Super Rapid guns.

Navy has even planned to integrate DEW. DRDO is in process of developing a 100kW DEW called Durga-II. The PSU has also developed a 25kW DEW that can neutralize a ballistic missile at range of 5KM. BEL is already producing the laser dazzlers for Indian Navy warships. The DEW to be used in NGD may be a version of 100kW DEW being developed by DRDO. The DEW will be used as close in weapon system and may be complement or supplement the traditional CIWS.

DRDO is also working on Electromagnetic Railgun. It has already developed 10 MJ rail gun and 100 MJ capacitor bank-based Rail gun is under development which could be possibly integrated with warships and could replace the Naval guns.

Pace of production can be increased if bulk orders are given. But that awareness is sadly lacking.
Also smaller vessels can be built faster so their orders should not be overlooked.

It should be 10lakhs: 3 lakhs : 2 lakhs .. strength army, airforce, navy.
The Navy has to become 3 times of existing strength.. country needs minimum 4 modern aircraft carriers 4 nuclear submarine,

Interesting on future destroyers, i reckon India should build T26 then what Australian Navy usv floating warship fitted either AAW VLS or like WW2 PT boat this will give India technology surface fleet like RAN able cover large area like Indian Ocean. 4 large LHD definitely like RAN 2 LHD.

The price of procuring equipments is rising at a very high pace. I hope naval procurement planners will take note of that.

Government should give 1% annual budget to DRDO and 1% TO ISRO...

Its time to change tactics, we need many small stealth high speed crafts which can fire Brahmos NG. big vessels are sitting duck in modern days

SMART torpedo missiles were developed but don't seem to be on the naval vessels.... will give very little time for enemy subs ...

We have over 4 Large shipyards in India, why cant we distribute the Destroyer project between all these ship builders, so that we can induct all these ships within just 5 years...Completing 1 ship in a year is frighin slow, while china is churning out 10 ships per year...🤕🤕🤕🤕

Faster delivery...Faster delivery....Faster delivery... That's all we want. We may not survive 10-12 years when it is suppose to come. War is on the corner weapons that kind of inducted within 1-3 years only matters

India need to build nuclear power destroyer with such high fire power capability then it will be more effective against china

VLS should be more on ship like us and china
