Navy inducts its 1st deep submergence vessel for rescue ops
Indian Navy on Saturday inducted its first Deep Submergence Rescue Vessel (DSRV), which can be used to rescue downed or disaster-struck submarines in sea. Other than rescuing personnel in downed submarines, DSRV can be used for missions like laying cables on sea bed as well. Currently, US, China, Russia and a few other countries have the capabilities to deploy DSRVs.
