The ‘Setting to Work Phase (STW)-2’ for the Air Independent Propulsion (AIP) system energy module was inaugurated in Gujarat. This module, developed by the Naval Materials Research Laboratory of Defence Research and Development Organisation, enhances the underwater endurance of diesel-electric submarines. The ceremony took place at Larsen & Toubro’s complex in Gujarat. The module will undergo rigorous testing before being integrated into Kalvari-class submarines in early 2027.
