India Commissions Second Nuclear Submarine INS Arighaat
India has officially commissioned its second nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine, INS Arighat, significantly enhancing its nuclear deterrence capabilities. The ceremony, held in Visakhapatnam and attended by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, emphasized that this addition strengthens India's nuclear triad and aims to maintain strategic balance in the Indo-Pacific region. INS Arighat, equipped with K-15 nuclear ballistic missiles, will patrol the seas alongside its predecessor, INS Arihant, contributing to India's second-strike capability under its no-first-use policy. The submarine's advanced technology represents a leap forward from the earlier model, with plans for additional submarines in the coming years. This strategic move is seen as a deterrent against regional naval threats, reflecting India's growing naval prowess. As part of its broader defense strategy, India is also seeking approval for more nuclear-powered conventional submarines.
