After a major refit of 15 months, India's first aircraft carrier INS Vikramaditya is expected to move to outer anchorage of Karwar naval base and resume sea trials next month.​


India’s first aircraft carrier INS Vikramaditya is expected to come out of a 15-month major refit at Karwar Naval Base and start sailing next week, followed by extensive sea trials in March.

The 45,000-ton aircraft carrier will be handed over to the Indian Navy by March 31 and the MiG-29K fighter operations will start in April 2023. The ship was sent for a major overhaul in Karwar in December 2021.

 
Good. The lady has been serving for almost a decade in our service now and I guess this midlife refit means all sections of it from engines, hydraulics and arrester components, power plants etc. must have been taken apart and cleaned and fixed and put back together, girl is almost as good as new for several more years.
 
Simply a cool image
