Indian Coast Guard Launches Two Advanced Fast Patrol Vessels at Goa Shipyard
28 October 2025
Indian Coast Guard (ICG) launched two advanced Fast Patrol Vessels, ICG Ship Ajit and ICG Ship Aparajit, at Goa Shipyard Limited yesterday. The Defence Ministry said the new 52-metre-long vessels are the seventh and eighth in a series of eight indigenously built Fast Patrol Vessels.
Weighing around 320 tonnes, these ships are equipped with superior manoeuvrability and propulsion efficiency as they come with Controllable Pitch Propellers – the first of their kind in this class of ships in India.
They are capable of multi-mission roles including fisheries protection, coastal patrol, anti-smuggling, anti-piracy and search and rescue operations.
