INS Kiltan (P30), third Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW)
stealth corvettes built under Project 28 (Kamorta Class) was commissioned into
the Indian Navy at Visakhapatnam. The ship gets her name from old INS Kiltan
(P79), a Petya class ASW ship that served the nation for 18 years before being
decommissioned in June 1987. Named after the coral island belonging to the
Lakshadweep group of islands in India, the ship has a total complement of 15
officers and 180 sailors. The sleek and magnificent ship spans 109 meters in
length, 14 meters in breadth with a displacement of 3,300 tonnes and can
rightfully be regarded as one of the most potent Anti Submarine Warships to
have been constructed in India.
