The DRDO has tied up with Indian firms Larson and Toubro (L&T) and Thermax Limited to manufacture the indigenous Air Independent Propulsion (AIP) system.
The first Scorpene class submarine INS Kalvari is scheduled to come in for refit in mid-2024, during which the hull of the submarine will be cut for adding the AIP section and it will be tested at multiple levels to ensure foolproof integration.
