Some "artist" from Wikipedia has drawn up what he thinks P-17A FFG will look like.
 
@Penguin you had asked for proof the INS VIKRAMDITYA would have the BARAK-2 SAM system installed on it:


On the absence of an air defence system (long range surface-to-air missile or LR-SAM) on the aircraft carrier INS Vikramaditya, he said while the carrier was being refurbished, the price of a few systems was not agreeable to the Indian side, which wanted ‘some systems reduced’.

“They kept it for a later date. Once the carrier is handed over to India, it is their decision to integrate any systems on the platform,” he said acidly.

To a question on India’s plan to retrofit the vessel with Barak 8 being jointly developed by India and Israel, he said Russia being the makers of the vessel would be in the loop while the retrofitting would be done. Mr. Komardin reeled out figures like 3,000 defence contractors visiting India last year alone to fulfil the over 50 contracts the country currently had in India.]

Fire mishap at India`s sole aircraft carrier INS Viraat

New Delhi: A fire mishap took place on the India's lone aircraft carrier INS Viraat last week off the coast of Mumbai. However, no one was reported injured in the incident.

The Indian Navy confirmed the incident and said that it was a minor fire mishap that was caused in the aircraft's air conditioning system.



The sole aircraft carrier of the country has completed 26 years of its service with the Indian Navy.

The ship underwent last major modernisation and life enhancement refit in 2008-09, which gave it a life extension of a few more years.

Born in November 1959 as HMS Hermes, INS Viraat is also one of the longest serving aircraft carrier in the history of naval operations anywhere in the world.

Last month, submarine INS Sindhurakshak suffered heavy casualties after series of explosions killed 18 members of its crew and partially submerged the ship.
