| Source measurement | — | The ship was conceived to serve as a sea-based platform for India's ballistic missile defence program and consists of 4 Ship Launch System (SLS) VLS for the same purpose. The Phase II of the BMD envisages intercepting and destroying enemy missile up to range of 5,000 kilometers by kinetic force with the FTR allowing live testing of the interdictor missiles and not computer simulations.[source]INS Anvesh · Lead; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage INS Anvesh was designed by Vik-Sandvik Design India Pvt Ltd ("VSDI"). It has a length of 118.4 m, 20 m width and 7.1 m draft and having a steel weight of approximately 3,900 tons.[source]INS Anvesh · Design; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The ship incorporates LRDE Long-Range Multi Function Radar (LRMFR) which will be used by Indian naval ships in future as Fire control radars for Ballistic Missile Defence. The 6 metre Active Antenna Array Unit (AAAU) for the radar was built by Astra Microwave Products Ltd. the first of which would be delivered in latter half of 2023. The LRMFR is an S-band radar system which is intended to replace the EL/M-2248 MF-STAR radar used by the Indian Navy as the primary naval radar of the next generation of naval ships. The functions of LRMFR includes acting as Fire Control Radar (FCR) for surface-to-air missile systems onboard ships and to track ballistic missiles .[source]INS Anvesh · Design; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The vessel equipped with electro-optical missile tracking, S-band radar tracking, telemetry devices apart from a launch pad, control and mission control center, for testing its Phase II of Ballistic Missile Defence (BMD) interceptor missiles. The Phase II of the BMD envisages intercepting and destroying enemy missile up to range of 5,000 kilometers by kinetic force with the FTR allowing live testing of the interdictor missiles and not computer simulations.[source]INS Anvesh · Design; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The missile launch system consists of 4 Ship Launching Systems (SLS) in the aft section which rests at 0° when not in used but the alignment is changed to 90° during test launches. The SLS was developed by Electropneumatics & Hydraulics Pvt Ltd. The ship has other specialised systems like damping tanks, missile integration and checkout bay, data processing room and mission control center. It is also equipped with a 15 ton crane and A-frame for cargo handling in the aft section.[source]INS Anvesh · Design; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage It is also designed to test radars, sonars, telemetry equipment and propulsion. The configuration of the installed power generation is Integrated Full Electric Propulsion (IFEP). The output is 14 MW which is produced by diesel generators powering steerable contra-rotating propulsion thrusters.[source]INS Anvesh · Design; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage |
