The Indian Navy decommissioned two of its vessels, including INS Abhay, an anti-submarine corvette of Soviet Paul II Class type and Fast Attack Craft INFAC T-82, of the Israeli Super Dvora MK II class.<\/p>\n

The ceremony was held at Naval Dockyard, Mumbai and the two ships were honoured for rendering over 3 decades of service in the Indian Navy.<\/p>\n

The ships were retired on October 6, 2025, and in the combined ceremony, the national flag, naval ensign and decommissioning pennants were lowered onboard the vessels.<\/p>\n

INS Abhay was commissioned at Poti, Georgia, in the erstwhile USSR in March 1989. It was a part of many important deployments and conducted several surveillance missions, patrols and rendered yeoman service in undertaking coastal defence operations.<\/p>\n

INFAC T-82 was commissioned in October 2003 and conducted many search and rescue missions, submarine escort duties and many coastal interdiction missions.<\/p>\n

INS Abhay and INFAC T-82 were paid off under the command of Cdr Abhay Kumar Singh and Lt Cdr Adishesh Mishra, respectively.<\/p>\n

The Indian Navy has recently commissioned INS Androth, the second anti-submarine warfare shallow-water craft (ASW-SWC).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
