The Scorpenes are being built by the Mazagaon Dockyard Limited here under Project 75 with transfer of technology from a foreign collaborator -- DCNS of France.
The state-of-the-art features of the Scorpenes include superior stealth and ability to launch crippling attacks on the enemy with precision-guided weapons.
The attacks can be carried out with torpedoes both while submerged or on the surface -- in all war theatres, including the tropics, giving it the invulnerability unmatched by many other submarines.
The second Scorpene submarine, INS Khanderi, is presently undergoing trials and is likely to be soon inducted into the Navy.
