Talwar-class frigate equipment records. Variants, orders and quantities are shown as reported in each inventory source; coverage is incomplete.
Naval inventory of the source class and listed configurations; excludes orders and construction. Source-year holdings, not immediately deployable strength.
Navy exact named equipment holdings: Project 11356 (Grigorovich). Active, operational-reserve and training units excluding equipment in store; November 2025 IISS assessment. Named service only; no parent-force or national total inferred. Source role: PRINCIPAL SURFACE COMBATANTS / FFGHM. Original estimates, ranges, reporting names, reserve, lease and employment scopes retained; nested included counts are not added. Missile-system quantities mean launchers, not rounds. No readiness, crew, carried weapon, payload, factory-production or future order count inherited.
