The next Next Generation Destroyer (NGD) will provide a further jump in technology by employing Ship Mounted Laser Weapon, High Power Sensors, Longe Range Cruise Missiles and Hypersonic missiles.
The Project-18 class destroyers are also a viable candidate for the sea-based element of India’s Ballistic Missile Defense Shield (BMDS) that will protect against Short and Intermediate-Range Ballistic Missiles (SRBMs and IRBMs).
