List of active Indian Navy ships

The Indian Navy, the naval warfare branch of the Indian Armed Forces, operated a fleet of about 145 surface combatant vessels and submarines as of November 2025.[1] By inventory, the Indian Navy's principal assets include its aircraft carriers – the service has operated four aircraft carriers since 1961,[2] and submarines – which presently includes a strategic submarine force.[3] It also operates a fleet of amphibious assault ships, guided missile destroyers, and stealth frigates amongst others.[4] However, it still lacks certain capability-specific assets such as mine countermeasures vessels, and has quantitatively inadequate fleet of certain vessels such as attack submarines.[5][6]

The Indian Naval fleet inventory is divided amongst its three regional formations:

The Indian Navy's Maritime Capability Perspective Plan for the period 2012–2027 had set the objective of the service becoming a 250-ship fleet by 2035.[10] However, as of November 2025, the service is expected to achieve a fleet size of over 200 ships by 2035.[1][11] Additionally, the Naval air arm operates more than 250 aircraft,[12] including carrier-based aircraft, helicopters, maritime patrol aircraft, in support of the fleet.[13]
