WASHINGTON: With military ties growing, the US is transferring one of its amphibious ships 'USS Trenten' to India to give the Indian Navy the capability to move troops and equipment to greater distances, a top American Commander has said.
The transfer is expected to take place sometime this December, Commander of the American Pacific Fleet Admiral Gary Roughhead said.
"USS Trenton', the Admiral said, will give capability to the Indian Navy to move troops and equipment to great distances and the ability to remain off shore for a prolonged period of time.
The Admiral, however, did not give any further details about the transfer of the amphibious ship.
He maintained that free and open access to sea was an important and critical challenge and the two navies were "very closely aligned".
He said "One of the reasons we have been very effective in operating together and looking to the future is because we see the challenges that we face on the Oceans, on the sea lanes and the importance of keeping those open".
The top American Navy official, who was recently in India, said discussions with his counterparts were comprehensive that included future operations, exercises and exchanges. "I remain very impressed with the Indian Navy".
There was a highly personal element to the Admiral's visit to India recently, he wanted to track down the house he lived in as a youngster in Mumbai. |

The Indian Navy (IN), the world抯 fifth largest navy, is a well-balanced three-dimensional force consisting of sophisticated missile-capable warships, aircraft carriers, minesweepers, advanced submarines and the latest aircraft in its inventory. Many of the warships are of indigenous design and have been constructed in Indian shipyards. These ships compare well with the ships of similar capability constructed by advanced countries. The Naval forces are maintained and supported by modern dockyard facilities encompassing state-of-the-art technology. At present the Navy has two major Naval bases at Mumbai and Visakhapatnam.
The navy is relatively well-armed among Indian Ocean navies, operating one aircraft carrier, over 40 surface combatants, and over a dozen submarines. The fleet is aging, and replacement of ships and aircraft has not been adequately funded. India's coast guard is small and is organized along the lines of the U.S. Coast Guard. With India's long coastline and extensive Exclusive Economic Zone, the navy and coast guard work hard to patrol the waters dictated by India's economic and strategic interests.
The Navy consists of ships such as aircraft carrier, cruisers, destroyers, frigates, mine-sweepers, survey ships, store carriers, tankers, submarines etc., and shore establishments, such as training institutions, dockyard, storage deposits and other miscellaneous, technical and administrative establishments. It also has a separate Aviation Wing consisting of Naval Air Stations and a Fleet Requirement Unit. The training establishments cater for the training of new entry Sailors, apprentices and boys as well as for specialised training of officers and men in mechanical and electrical engineering, gunnery, communication, navigation, anti-submarine and naval aviation etc,. There are also schools for training in seamanship, physical culture, supply and secretariat duties, etc.
India entered the 21st Century with a small but formidable regional naval posture. Long considered a "blue water" navy, the Indian Navy faces major challenges as many of its major vessels near the end of their service lives. Indigenous shipbuilding efforts are struggling to achieve acceptable levels of productivity and efficiency.

India OKs Purchase of Trenton, Landing Craft
The Indian government has approved the procurement of the Austin-class landing platform dock ship USS Trenton from the U.S. Navy. Trenton, and four Landing Craft Utility boats, will be purchased for $48.2 million.
A core crew of 72 Indian naval personnel is in the United States to receive training and assume command of the ship. Trenton will be transferred with most of its equipment, including the Phalanx 20mm Close-In Weapon System. The ship will be officially handed over in 2007.
Trenton, which served an integral role in the evacuation of U.S. citizens from Lebanon during the recent fighting between Israel and Hezbollah guerrilla forces, will be the second largest warship in the Indian Navy抯 inventory, following the Hermes-class aircraft carrier. It will give the sea service its first purpose-built amphibious vessel capable of combined well deck and aviation operations. source

Indian Army Wants to Add Another 1,000 T-90S Tanks by 2020
India Defence and papers in India are reporting that the Indian Army intends to acquire nearly 1,000 locally produced T90S 'Bhishma' main battle tanks by 2020, in addition to the 310 T90 MBT's already procured from Russia. Impressed by the continuing importance of armored shock and speed, The Army's plan is to have 21 regiments of T-90S and 40 regiments of upgraded T-72 M1 'Ajeya' tanks, leaving the 1.13-million man Army with a tank mix of around 3,800 T-90S and T-72s. Careful observers will note that India's problem plagued 30+ year long indigenous 'Arjun' tank program (and see further program history) is nowhere to be found in this mix; India Defence believes it has effectively been relegated to technology demonstrator status under the new plan.
The Army's plan also includes progressive upgrades to India's production capabilities. At present, the 310 T-90S tanks imported from Russia under the February 2001 Rs 3,625 crore (about $795 million) contract, are divided between the first lot of 124 T-90S tanks bought off-the-shelf, and 186 imported in knocked-down condition for assembly at the Heavy Vehicles Factory at Avadi. The goal is apparently to begin progressive manufacture of the follow-on batch of 1,000 from 2007-2008 onward, building on and broadening existing capabilities as they go. The T-72s, meanwhile, may be improved with their own reactive armor, electronics, sights, et. al. under the oft-delayed "Project Rhino," in collaboration with Israel, Poland and Russia. Persistent reports that many Indian T-72s lack effective IR-imagine equipment would appear to make such upgrades a priority item, but as Bharat-Rakshak notes, progress has been very slow.
