INS Satpura, INS Ranvir and INS Ranvijay participating in the exercise. This is the first wargames for the indigenously-built INS Satpura - the Shivalik class stealth frigate. I happened to attend its commissioning in Mumbai last year. The last in the series INS Shayadari built under Project-17 at Mazagon Dockyard Ltd (MDL) will be commissioned sometime this year.

  1. INS Kulish is not Frigate. It's a corvette of Kora class. Please correct the mistake.
