Indian Navy plans to purchase the GISAT-2 satellite to increase its capacity
The Indian Navy plans to purchase a specialised earth imaging satellite Geo Imaging Satellite-2 (GISAT-2), this fiscal year as part of its modernisation and network-centric combat and communications programme. The satellite, if operational, is likely to improve the navy’s operating capabilities in the Indian Ocean region, which is strategically and geopolitically crucial, especially given China’s growing influence.
The GISAT-2, is among 21 planned procurements, including some long-term acquisitions as per information from the ministry of defence (MoD). The capability development/modernisation of the navy is being undertaken in accordance with the long-term plans being put in place for the next decade.
