India Intends To Become ‘Significant Maritime Player’

Posted by Matt in February 5th, 2007

India’s defense minister declared the country’s intention to be able to project maritime force throughout the Indian Ocean, underscoring the shift toward a littoral-warfare capability.

“India has the potential and the capability to be a significant maritime player. I would even venture to say that the Indian Ocean could, in fact, be India’s ‘new Silk Route,’” said Arackaparambil Kurian Antony Jan. 8 at a government-sponsored summit. “The Indian Ocean’s littoral extends from South Africa to Australia.”

Just days before, Antony said that the Indian government would provide the Navy with the capabilities it needs to conduct sea control, sea denial and low-intensity maritime operations.
