INS Delhi
is the lead ship of her class of guided-missile destroyers of the
Indian Navy. She was built at the Mazagon Dock Limited in Mumbai and
commissioned on 15 November 1997. This class is among the largest
warships to be designed and built in India.
INS Delhi is the second vessel of the Indian Navy to bear the name. She inherits the mantle from the Leander
class cruiser of the same name, which had an illustrious career in
the Portuguese-Indian War of 1961, during the liberation of Goa, Daman
and Diu.
