INS Nistar: A Deep Dive into India’s Submarine Safety Revolution

India has achieved a major milestone in its naval capabilities with the commissioning of INS Nistar, our first indigenously built Diving Support Vessel (DSV). This game-changing ship is designed to perform deep-sea submarine rescue operations—an essential addition for any modern blue-water navy aiming for global maritime reach.


Submarines are vital for stealth, deterrence, and maintaining the nuclear triad. But deep-sea operations come with risks like technical failure, depressurization, or collisions. Until now, India lacked the capability to execute submarine rescues in extreme underwater conditions. That changes with INS Nistar.

Equipped with:
🔹 Advanced sonar and radar systems
🔹 Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs)
🔹 Manned submersibles
🔹 Hyperbaric rescue chambers
🔹 Specialized underwater firefighting systems

…INS Nistar ensures that submariners can now be located, reached, and rescued even from depths beyond 100 meters. With this self-contained rescue platform, India not only enhances its maritime safety but also strengthens its role as a regional naval power capable of assisting partners in times of crisis.

This marks a new era in India’s naval autonomy and underlines our growing technological prowess in shipbuilding and maritime strategy. The oceans just got a little safer—thanks to INS Nistar.
