Navy seeks bids to build submarines

Subject : Defence

Context : Recently, the Ministry of Defence has issued Request of Proposal (RFP) for the first acquisition programme under the Strategic Partnership Model for construction of six AIP fitted Conventional Submarines named Project 75(India) for the Indian Navy.

Concept :

  • The RFP was issued to shortlisted Strategic Partners (SPs) or Indian Applicant Companies for the project viz, M/s Mazagaon Dock Shipbuilders Limited (MDL) and M/s Larsen & Tubro (L&T).
  • The project cost is over Rs 40,000 crore.

Project-75(India)

  • It is a follow-on of the Project 75 Kalvari-class submarine for the Indian Navy.
  • The P-75 (I) contract will be awarded to MDL (Mazagon Docks Ltd) or Larsen &Toubro.
  • It is part of a 30-year submarine building plan that ends in 2030.
  • The ‘I’ symbolizes the attempt to give India the ability to design and produce submarines as part of a 30-year submarine building programme.
  • The goal is to produce 24 conventional submarines by 2030 (now been reduced to 18).
  • It offers a chance to stabilise the entire submarine line on an in-service platform, whether French, Russian or German.
  • Under the Project 75 (I), the navy will operate six Scorpene submarines by 2023 which will be in service until 2050 and beyond.
