Professionalism of indian navy must be questioned here regarding using Armed frigate for family outing.Wat next IAF pilots flying their wives in Su-30 MKI.And Army counterparts taking their families on outing on T-90s and pinaka truck.Hail indian navy brass.Didnt they find some other boat. or they should've hired some private boat.Idiots to the core using armed Govt boat to their pleasure.

Sab ne Govt vehicle or property ko apne baap ki jageer samajh rakha hai.

As if u are hearing family day's happening aboard a naval ship for the first time.. Its a tradition thats been followed the world over.. Instead of condemning a sad incident happened aboard "your" navy's frigate, the usual rant on everything continues......

What next advice is coming? Disband the evil Indian Navy??

ship was going to be decommissioned in 3 months anyway......
but there are larger questions this poses..

USS Chung-Hoon Hosts a Family Day Cruise

Even the US has Family days and so does the Royal navy.....what were you thinking before posting something like that?

And above all INS Vindhyagiri was on course and it was the pilot of the other two ships who made the mistake. So you can cut your rant right here.

Pinaka is a truck or a truck laden MBRL USED TO FRY ENEMY ARSE..
An incident questioned professional IN only by Dear AJTR .. I don't know where you from but IN IS STILL NOT YOUR JAGEER TO QUESTIONED by you. Btw the Container ship is charged with rash navigation not IN ship by MBPT..

The info is correct they are updated Leander class ships. The main armament could use a little correction. It looks like one twin 4.5 in (114 mm) gun Mark 6 if you look at the picture. Same guns used on the popular daring class.

just the vocab i was looking for! btw, seems like the collision was made by the Naval Negligence. Train ur frogs properly yaar

Bull$hit you have no idea how the incident transpired but are still spreading your agenda driven crap.

There were three ships involved ..Two merchant vessels and one naval warship.

INS Vindhyagiri and the other merchant vessel(forgetting its name) were moving into the harbor on nearly parallel headings whereas MV Nordlake was coming out of the harbor ..so as MV Nordlake and INS Vindhyagiri were on opposite courses giving rise to text book "HeadOn situation"

IMO collision regulation on head on situation states that

"When two ships meet head-on or nearly so , each ship must change course to starboard(go right) and pass port-to-port.(pass on each others left side.)"

Now MV Nordlake on sighting INS Vindhayagiri on head on course, decided to alter to port(left) in violation of the rule.

On altering its course to Port, Motor Vessel Nordlake found itself in close quarter situation (very close to collision) with the other merchant vessel and immediately(in panic) gave hard alteration to starboard..without realizing that INS Vindhayagiri was on her staboard bow and collided with it.

If its any solace.. I heard the leander class were being relegated as training ships..
Still.. a loss is a loss.
