The Indian Navy has installed a new radar on one of its Delhi-class guided-missile destroyers to enhance surveillance capabilities.
Janes understands that the Indian Navy has installed the naval version of Spanish company Indra's Lanza 3D air surveillance radar on its second Delhi-class destroyer, INS Mysore (D60), as part of the vessel's mid-life upgrade.
In May 2023 Indra announced it will supply three Lanza-N 3D radars to the Indian Navy. Indra said at the time that it had delivered the first of these radars to the Indian Navy, while the production of the second and third radars had been initiated.
Indra has also partnered with India's Tata Advanced Systems Limited (TASL) to deliver additional Lanza-N radars to the Indian Navy. TASL will acquire Lanza-N's core elements from Indra and build 20 additional Lanza-N radars in India for integration on multiple undisclosed Indian Navy vessels.
The Lanza-N radars will be delivered to the Indian Navy under a INR12 billion (USD143 million) contract secured by TASL from the Indian Ministry of Defence (MoD) in 2019 to supply 23 shipborne 3D air surveillance radars to the service by 2029.
