- A warship can be broadly divided into three segments — float, move and fight.
- Float - 90 % indigenisation
- Move (propulsion) - 60 %
- Fight (weapons) - 30 %
- which are priority areas to be addressed.
- Among platforms, a major area of concern is helicopters.
- huge opportunity for indigenisation of our future naval aviation assets
