Deep
Sea Submarine Rescue System Inducted into the Indian
Indian Navy's first flyaway Deep Sea Submarine Rescue System was
formally inducted by Admiral Sunil Lanba, Chairman Chiefs of Staff Committee
and Chief of the Naval Staff, at the Naval Dockyard, Mumbai. Vice Admiral
Girish Luthra, Flag Officer Commanding-in-Chief, Western Naval Command, former
CNS/Cs-in-C as well as the senior management of the Original Equipment
Manufacturer, M/s James Fisher and Sons Pvt. Ltd, UK were present during the
induction ceremony. Aquisition of this capability is a significant and
pioneering jump in the Indian Navy's capability in deep submarine rescue.The
Indian Navy currently operates submarines of the Sindhughosh, Shishumar,
Kalvari Classes as well as nuclear powered submarines. The operating medium and
the nature of operations undertaken by submarines expose them to high degree of
inherent risk. In such an eventuality, traditional methods of search and rescue
at sea are ineffective for a disabled submarine. To overcome this capability
gap the Navy has acquired a third generation, advanced Submarine Rescue System
considering of a Non-tethered Deep Submergence Rescue Vehicle (DSRV) and its
associated equipment.
The Indian Navy now joins a select league of Nations worldwide with the
sovereign capability, in fly away configuration, to search, locate and rescue
crew from a disabled Submarine. The Deep Sea rescue system would have a global
footprint and can be mobilised from the Naval base at Mumbai to the nearest
mobilisation port by air/land or sea to provide rapid rescue to the Submarines
in distress. The newly acquired capability would be operated and deployed by
the crew of Indian Navy's newly formed Submarine Rescue Unit (West) from its
base in Mumbai.The Indian Navy's Deep Sea Submarine Rescue System considered to
be the most advanced system currently in operation globally, is capable of
undertaking rescue from a disabled Submarine upto 650 m depth. The DSRV, which
is operated by a crew of three, can rescue 14 personnel from a disabled
Submarine at one time and can operate in extreme sea conditions (upto Sea State
6).

reduce energy consumption for non-traction purpose by about 10%. This will be
equivalent to about 240 million units of electricity per annum.
