Some vessels for the Indian Coast Guard... Like the Japanese Coast Guard, the Indian Coast Guard offers a lot of possibilities for scenario design. I've been playing around with ideas for scenarios about encounters between the ICG against criminals like smugglers or pirates and "fish wars" where some other country is violating India's EEZ (and perhaps sending a warship or two to protect their "innocent" fishing trawlers). Jija Bai-class patrol vessel Service: Indian Coast Guard Service dates: 1984-2011 Pennants: 64 Jija Bai, 65 Chand Bibi, 66 Kittur Chinnama, 67 Rani Jindan, 68 Habbah Khatun, 69 Rama Devi, 70 Avvaiyar Displacement: 181 tonnes (178 long tons; 200 short tons) Length: 44.02 m (144 ft 5 in) Beam: 7.4 m (24 ft 3 in) Draught: 1.5 m (4 ft 11 in) Installed power: 3 × 80 kW, 315V, 50 Hz diesel generators Propulsion: 2 × MTU 12V538 TB82 diesel engines, 5,940 bhp (4,429 kW), 2 shafts Speed: 25 knots (46 km/h; 29 mph) Range: 2,375 nmi (4,398 km; 2,733 mi) at 14 kn (26 km/h; 16 mph) Complement: 7 officers, 27 enlisted Sensors and processing systems: BEL make-1* Decca 1226 navigation radar Armament: 1 × Bofors 40 mm AA gun; 2 × 7.62 mm (0.3 in) machine guns Sarojini Naidu-class extra-fast patrol vessel Service: Indian Coast Guard Service Dates: 2002-present 229 Sarojini Naidu, 230 Durgabai Deshmukh, 231 Kasturba Gandhi, 232 Aruna Asaf Ali, 233 Subhadra Kumari Chauhan, 234 Meera Behn, 235 Savitribai Phule Displacement : 235 tonnes Length : 48.14 meter Beam : 7.5 meter Depth : 4 meter Draught : 2 meter Speed : 35 Knots Armament: 1*30 CRN 91, 2*7.62-mm MG Electronic Radar: BEL make-1*Decca 1245/6X nav. Power: 3 mtu 16V4000 M90 diesels, 2720 KW at 2040 rpm each Propulsion: 3 KaMeWa Type 71SI waterjet, 10,499 bhp Electric 160 Kw (2*80 Kw, Diesel driven) Range 1500 naut. Miles (cruising speed not given, but based on other similar craft in the ICGS it is probably 13 knots) Endurances: 7 days Crew: 30 (including 5 officers) Wikipedia says, “Powered by three 2,720 kW MTU diesel engines, driving independent Kamewa water-jets, these vessels are designed for good maneuverability and are capable of operating in up to Sea State 4 and can withstand Sea State 6. The vessels have a top speed of 35 knots and have an operational range of 1,500 nm. They are equipped with a 30 mm CRN 91 Naval Gun at forward with two 7.62 mm or 12.7 mm machine guns, each installed on both sides of the board. They are fitted with the latest satellite communication and navigation systems including differential global positioning system (DGPS), electronic chart display and information system (ECDIS) and global maritime distress and safety system (GMDSS). They have air-conditioned accommodation for a crew of 35 and have endurance of 7 days. The vessels in this series are eco-friendly, featuring an on-board sewage treatment plant and the gases used for air-conditioning are ozone layer friendly.” Aadesh Class Fast Patrol Vessel Service: Indian Coast Guard Service Dates: 2013-present Pennants: 236 Aadesh, 237 Abheek, 238 Abhinav, 239 Abheraj, 240 Achook, 241 Agrim, 242 Amal, 243 Amartya, 244 Ameya, 245 Amogh, 246 Anagh, 247 Ankit, 248 Anmol, 249 Apoorva, 250 Arinjay, 251 Arnvesh, 252 Arush, +3 others Displacement: 290 long tons (295 t) Length: 50 m (164 ft 1 in) Beam: 7.6 m (24 ft 11 in) Draught: 1.6 m (5 ft 3 in) Depth: 4.65 m (15 ft 3 in) Propulsion: 3 × MTU 16V 4000 M90 engines, 2,720 kW (3,648 hp); 3 × 120 kW (161 hp) Aux engines; 3 × Rolls-Royce Kamewa 71S3np water jets Speed: 33 knots Endurance: 1,500 nmi (2,800 km; 1,700 mi) at 13 kn (24 km/h; 15 mph) Boats & landing craft carried: 1 × 4.7 m (15 ft 5 in) Rigid Inflatable Boat with 40 hp (30 kW) OBM; 1 × 6 person capacity Gemini Boat Complement: 5 Officers and 30 other ranks Sensors and processing systems: 1 × X-Band Radar with ARPA GMDSS 400 W MF/HF ECDIS, UAIS, DGPS, Gyro, Autopilot INMARSAT Fleet Broadband 500 Armament: 1 × 30 mm (1.2 in) CRN 91 Naval Gun Notes: Deck Crane: 1 t @ 4.9 m Samarth-class offshore patrol vessel Service: Indian Coast Guard Service Dates: 2015-present Pennants: 11 Samarath, 12 Shoor, +4 more Displacement: 2,350 t (2,310 long tons; 2,590 short tons) Length: 105 m (344 ft 6 in) Beam: 13 m (42 ft 8 in) Depth: MLD 6.00 M; Draught (Propeller): 4.50 M Installed power: 2 × 20-PA6B-STC engines (9,100 kW) Propulsion: 2 x controllable pitch propellers Speed: 23 knots (43 km/h; 26 mph) Range: 6,000 nmi (11,000 km; 6,900 mi) at 12 kn (22 km/h; 14 mph) Radar: none listed...perhaps the same X-band radar used with the Aadesh-class?
