F-16 Now An "Enemy" On ex-USN Warship
Spotted this poster near the operations room on board INS Jalashwa (formerly the American USS Trenton). Somehow, dont think the folks at Lockheed-Martin are going to find this funny.

Navy displays its awesome power | Deccan Chronicle | 2010-11-26
Displaying its ke-en intent to protect the economic coastline and willingness to take up tasks that call for a clarity in deterrence and an unwillingness to compromise on what is national, the Indian Navy conducted a string of impr-essive exercises on Tuesday and Wednesday that proved its ability to hold mast in turbulent waters.
A fleet of ships including INS Jalashwa, a launching platform dock (LPD) and India’s second largest ship which provides the amphibious thrust to the Eastern Fleet, conducted a whole lot of exercises to prove the offensive and defensive capabilities of the Eastern Fleet. INS Ranvir, INS Rana, INS Savitri, INS Karmuk and INS Jyothi were the other participants.
The exercise was not just a mere display of the enormous firepower that the fleet commands but also an insight into the complicated procedures and manoeuvres that have to be made in a multiple threat environment. The series of exercises taken up by the Eastern Naval Command proved the efficacy of the ships involved and the ability of the crew to shift gears when called for.
INS Jalashwa commanding officer Alok Bhatnagar observed that INS Jalashwa provided the Indian Navy with the capacity of ensuring a foothold on enemy beaches in case of a conflict situation.
He said, “INS Jalashwa gives us the much required capability to launch landing craft machine (LCMs) laden with army men and cargo to provide the much needed thrust in an amphibious operation.” One of the most eye-catching of these exercises was the stand-off bea-ching exercise, where the coordinated effort between the Navy and Army was on display. Soldiers of the 91st Battalion and MARCOS (Navy Commandos) put up a scintillating show.
The refuelling exercise was truly a gigantic one. The operation involved five ships in tow, with the INS Jyothi pumping oil through INS Jalashwa to the INS Karmuk. A mock exercise involving the 'securing an offshore rig' was also conducted.
The exercises effectively proved the intent of the Indian Navy to ward off any threat not just to the trading lines that run through our seas but also to provide the much needed bite to keep our shores safe and ready for any eventuality. Rear Admiral P. Murugesan, Flag Officer Commanding Eastern Fleet, observed, “The objective is to protect the passage of trade of on-shore assets of the country.”

Merchant vessels safe, thanks to Indian Navy
The Navy is providing protection to Indian merchant vessels effectively against attack by pirates in the Gulf of Aden.
According to Flag Officer Commanding Eastern Fleet, Rear Admiral P. Murugesan, INS Rajput is deployed in the Gulf of Aden to safeguard Indian vessels. It will return after three months of patrolling, when another ship will be sent there.
“About 90 per cent of India’s $500 billion international trade is across the oceans. You know what is happening in the Gulf of Aden. Pirates are holding big merchant vessels and passengers to ransom. INS Rajput, one of the ships of our Eastern Fleet, is now deployed there for patrolling. All our merchant vessels are safe under the surveillance of the Indian Navy,” he told media onboard INS Jalashwa on Wednesday.
Similar services would be extended to other international ships.
Asked how the country was able to maintain old ships — such as Jalashwa purchased from the United States — he said that during the last three years since the purchase of the amphibious assault ship, all maintenance and repairs had been done locally.
Rear Admiral Murugesan also explained that it would take eight to 10 years to build a Landing Platform Dock (LPD) similar to the INS Jalashwa, right from the drawing to the commissioning of the ship. Now, new ships were being built on a par with those in any other country, in terms of technology, weaponry, sensors, etc.
“I can assure you, INS Delhi, Mysore and Mumbai built by the Mazagon Dock Limited, India’s prime shipyard, are on a par with the best in the world.
The replacement of an LPD of the Jalashwa type will be by LPDs built by Indian shipyards,” he said.
Commanding Officer of INS Jalashwa Captain Alok Bhatnagar was present.

Interesting, but what has the amphibious capabilities of IN to do with Mumbai attacks and didn't we get the INS Jalashwa in 2007 and not like he said:
I hope IN speeds up costal patrol vessels (for ICG too) and MPA helicopter as well as aircrafts for costal defense, instead of focusing on amphibious capabilities.
Btw, what are the duties left for Coast Guard, when IN is now responsible for the coastlines too?

Outstanding video. I think Indian armed forces should make such videos more. Liked the Viraat Times and his helicopter sortie.
