‘Indigenously built aircraft carrier will make India formidable force in Indo-Pacific region’

The aircraft carrier INS Vikrant, which is being built in the Cochin Shipyard, may be inducted into the Indian Navy some time in 2022-23, said the Flag Officer Commanding-in-Chief of the Eastern Naval Command, Atul Kumar Jain.

“国产航母将使印度成为印太地区的强大力量”

印度东部海军司令部司令Atul Kumar Jain说，正在科钦造船厂建造的维克兰特号航空母舰可能会在2022-23年的某个时候进入印度海军服役。

The Indigenous Aircraft Carrier (IAC) will be based in ENC and form a formidable force in the Indo-Pacific region with other assets such as the SSN (sub surface nuclear) submarines that are being proposed under Project 75 Alpha, said Vice-Admiral Jain, here on Thursday.

Jain中将在周四表示，这艘国产航空母舰将以东部海军司令部为基地，与其他资产如75A项目提议的SSN(水下核)潜艇一道，在印度-太平洋地区形成强大力量。

Addressing the press at the annual meet, he said the Indian Navy was on the verge of becoming a formidable blue water force by tuning well with the ‘make in India’ or ‘Atma Nirbhar Bharat’.

他在年度会议上对媒体发表讲话时表示，通过与“印度制造”完美结合，印度海军即将成为一支强大的蓝水部队。

“Today, the IAC is being built in India, which will be followed by Shivalik-class multi-role frigates and Kamorta-class anti-submarine warfare corvettes. Five to 10 years down the line, we visualise a dominant naval force with indigenous capabilities. And for that to happen we need all including PSUs, Navy, MSME and startups to work together as a team,” he said.

“今天，印度正在建造IAC，随后将是shivalik级多用途护卫舰和kamorta级反潜战护卫舰。5到10年后，我们将看到一支具有本土能力的主导海军力量。为了实现这一点，我们需要包括PSU、海军、MSME和初创公司在内的所有人作为一个团队一起工作。”

He said that bilateral and multilateral naval exercises had been yielding good results and the exercise with Japan, Russia and the USA, had been useful in checking China.

他说，双边和多边的海军演习取得了良好的效果，印度与日本、俄罗斯和美国的演习，对遏制中国是有用的。

According to him, Australia joining the Malabar exercise this year was a game changer, as now the Indian Navy drones, ships and P8I aircraft could patrol without any hindrance till Sunda Strait.

他说，澳大利亚今年参加马拉巴尔演习改变了游戏规则，因为现在印度海军的无人机、军舰和P8I飞机可以在巽他海峡之前不受任何阻碍地巡逻。

Expanding economy

The Vice-Admiral said that for the government to achieve the vision of a five trillion economy, the naval might and maritime security needed to be strengthened.

经济扩张

这位中将说，政府要想实现5万亿美元的经济愿景，就需要加强海军力量和海上安全。

“About 70% of the trade in value and 80% in volume happens through the sea and we have a number of threats including from China and piracy. The role of the Indian Navy is to see that trade is free of any disturbances. We have been providing security 24/7 to our merchant ships in sensitive zones such as the Gulf of Aden, but with the mounting challenge we need more assets and ‘Atma Nirbhar Bharat’ will help achieve that,” he said.

“大约70%的贸易价值和80%的交易量是通过海上实现的，但我们面临许多威胁，包括来自中国和海盗的威胁。印度海军的作用是确保贸易不受任何干扰。我们一直在亚丁湾等敏感地区为我们的商船提供全天候的安全保障，但随着挑战的加剧，我们需要更多的资产，而‘印度制造’将有助于实现这一点。”他说。

Coastal security

The chief of ENC said coastal security after 26/11 had become a priority and the ENC had been playing its role in eastern seaboard by not only maintaining a tight vigil along the long coastline but also stepping up surveillance at all entry and exit routes.

海岸安全

东部海军司令部的负责人说，26/11之后的海岸安全已经成为首要任务，东部海军司令部已经在东海岸发挥了它的作用，不仅对漫长的海岸线保持严密的警戒，而且还加强了对所有进出路线的监视。

Agreeing that China had greater numbers both in terms of manpower and naval assets, Mr. Jain pointed out that India was way ahead of Pakistan in naval might. “We have recently successfully test fired anti-ship missiles such as Uran and Brahmos. During the 1971 war, our missile corvettes had to go close to Karachi to fire the missiles, now we can fire them from beyond visual range both from ships and underwater platforms,” he said.

贾恩同意中国在人力和海军资产方面都拥有更大的数量，但他指出，印度的海军实力遥遥领先于巴基斯坦。“我们最近成功试射了乌兰导弹和布拉莫斯导弹等反舰导弹。在1971年的战争中，我们的导弹巡洋舰必须靠近卡拉奇才能发射导弹，现在我们可以在船只和水下平台的可视范围之外发射导弹。”

Women were slowly being inducted into ships and combat duty. “We already have two women in INS Vikramaditya in the Western Fleet and two in INS Shakti in ENC. Very soon women will also fly naval helicopters,” he said.

女性逐渐被征召到舰船和战斗岗位。他说:“我们在西部舰队的维克拉玛蒂亚号和南太平洋舰队的沙克蒂号已经有两名女性。很快，女性还将驾驶海军直升机。”
