INS Aridhaman, a Made-in-India nuclear ballistic submarine, to be commissioned soon: Navy Chief

India is set to induct its third nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine, INS Aridhaman, significantly bolstering its sea-based nuclear deterrent. This development, following the commissioning of INS Arighaat, will mark the first time India has three operational SSBNs at sea. The new submarine, designed for longer-range missiles, enhances strike capability and survivability, aligning with India's nuclear doctrine.
