BSL's special-grade steel boosts Navy vessels
Bokaro: The Bokaro Steel Plant (BSL), a unit of the Steel Authority of India Limited (SAIL), has supplied special-grade steel for Navy vessels, INS Ajay and INS Nistar, to boost India's defence indigenisation efforts. INS Ajay, the final vessel in the series of eight anti-submarine warfare shallow water crafts (ASW-SWC), was recently launched by the Garden Reach Shipbuilders and Engineers Ltd. INS Nistar, designed for submarine rescue and deep-sea operations, has been commissioned by the Hindustan Shipyard Ltd. as India's first indigenous diving support vessel. The chief of communications with the BSL, Manikant Dhan, said, "SAIL-Bokaro has consistently been at the forefront of meeting the Indian Navy's steel requirements." "Our DMR 249A special-grade steel plates, known for strength and high durability critical for operational efficiency and survivability of naval ships, have been used in several warships and frigates," he added. BSL had provided special steel for warships like INS Vikrant, INS Vindhyagiri, INS Nilgiri, and INS Surat. The use of this indigenously produced steel not only enhances the structural integrity and stealth capabilities of INS Ajay but also supports the demanding underwater functions of INS Nistar, which will perform submarine rescue, deep-sea diving, and continuous surveillance missions. Every tonne of steel delivered contributes to strengthening India's naval infrastructure and advancing self-reliance in defence manufacturing, said an official.
